Track your dog's miles and performance. Export runs in GPS format for use in other applications. Works best with iPhone using GPS but can be used to time runs and perform calculations based on the trail information entered manually on iPod Touch devices which do not support GPS. Mushometer integrates with HealthKit to treat your runs as workouts if you choose to enable access. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mushometer at none against Spårhunden's 2. Mushometer also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.6). Spårhunden's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
