Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: runCLTrun at 100% against Wahoo's 43%. runCLTrun also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Wahoo's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 11) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
