# ASICS Runkeeper vs INTVL

The clearest difference is ratings volume: ASICS Runkeeper at 379K against INTVL's 5.1K. INTVL's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 weeks) and review sentiment (83% vs 74%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ASICS Runkeeper sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and INTVL sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for ASICS Runkeeper against 4.7 for INTVL. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ASICS Runkeeper has 379K ratings behind it against 5.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 74% of ASICS Runkeeper's written reviews are positive against 83% of INTVL's.

ASICS Runkeeper ships an update every 2 weeks, INTVL every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
