# adidas Running vs Keep

The clearest difference is update cadence: Keep at weekly against adidas Running's every 2 weeks. Keep also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). adidas Running's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs freemium) and ratings volume (108K vs 17K). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. adidas Running sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Keep sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 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 adidas Running against 4.8 for Keep. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: adidas Running has 108K ratings behind it against 17K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 56% of adidas Running's written reviews are positive against 53% of Keep's.

adidas Running ships an update every 2 weeks, Keep weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
