Make every run yours. Run Walk Pro combines flexible workouts, run recording and a personal journal in one straightforward iPhone and Apple Watch app. BUILD YOUR OWN WORKOUT Combine walking, slow running, running and fast running. Add warm-ups and cool-downs, repeat groups of intervals, and set optional target speeds or paces. Start with an example workout or create your own. JUST GO FOR A RUN Prefer to run without a plan? Start an open run and record your distance, pace and outdoor route. TAKE IT TO YOUR WRIST Follow your workout on Apple Watch with clear interval information, sounds and haptic alerts. Pause, resume and finish from your wrist. Once the workout is running on your Watch, you can leave your phone behind. KEEP YOUR RUNNING JOURNAL Save recordings and find them again by name, date or distance. Review your route and workout details. DISCOVER YOUR PERSONAL BESTS See your fastest 5K, 10K, half marathon and marathon—even when achieved within a longer run. Each best links to its source workout. Bests use Pro recordings only; previous Apple Health workouts are not imported. SAVE TO APPLE HEALTH Choose whether to save a recording to Apple Health. Pro remembers exported workouts and, with Health read permission, checks for overlapping recordings to help avoid duplicates. YOUR PREFERRED UNITS Choose metric or imperial distance and your preferred speed or pace units. THREE RUNS FREE Try three completed, saved runs without entering payment details. Discarded workouts do not count. After that, subscribe to continue recording. Your saved history remains accessible without an active subscription. The UK subscription price is £2.99 every three months. Prices elsewhere are shown in your local currency before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account subscription settings. No login or advertising. Outdoor route recording requires location permission. Watch recording uses Apple Health permissions. Indoor iPhone mode provides timing without measuring distance. Recorded distances and personal bests are estimates, not certified race results.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Run Walk Pro at none against Interval Timer's shown. Interval Timer's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
