Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Workout at none against RunGap's 4. Workout also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). RunGap's advantage is review sentiment (77% vs 47%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
