Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bleep Test Lite at none against BeepRun's 6. Bleep Test Lite also leads on ratings volume (756 vs 15) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). BeepRun's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 14 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
