# TrainingPeaks vs Zepp

TrainingPeaks and Zepp both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 62% of TrainingPeaks's written reviews are positive against 46% of Zepp's. TrainingPeaks also leads on chart position (#134 vs unranked). Zepp's advantage is ratings volume (82K vs 13K) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TrainingPeaks sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Zepp sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 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 — 4.7 for TrainingPeaks against 4.6 for Zepp. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zepp has 82K ratings behind it against 13K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 62% of TrainingPeaks's written reviews are positive against 46% of Zepp's.

TrainingPeaks ships an update fortnightly, Zepp weekly. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
