Verdict

The call

FivePointFive and RunTogether both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of RunTogether's written reviews are positive against 58% of FivePointFive's. FivePointFive's advantage is ratings volume (5K vs 15) and chart position (#98 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
