# RunPee vs Dog

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dog at none against RunPee's 17. Dog also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). RunPee's advantage is ratings volume (479 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RunPee sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Dog asks for nothing beyond the download.

Dog holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RunPee has 479 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of RunPee's written reviews are positive against 100% of Dog's.

RunPee ships an update every 2 months, Dog every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
