# AisleRunner vs Phaeto

The clearest difference is rating: Phaeto at 5.0 against AisleRunner's 4.1. Phaeto also leads on ads (none vs shown). AisleRunner's advantage is ratings volume (25 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AisleRunner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Phaeto sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Phaeto holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AisleRunner has 25 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

AisleRunner ships an update every 3 weeks, Phaeto every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
