# RunPee vs Improv

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Improv at none against RunPee's 17. Improv also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). RunPee's advantage is ratings volume (479 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

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

Improv 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 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RunPee ships an update every 2 months, Improv weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
