# Running Fred vs Galaxy C**k

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Running Fred at 1.8K against Galaxy C**k's 23. Galaxy C**k's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Running Fred sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Galaxy C**k sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Galaxy C**k holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Running Fred has 1.8K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 79% of Running Fred's written reviews are positive against 93% of Galaxy C**k's.

Running Fred ships an update every 3 months, Galaxy C**k every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
