Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RunningBeat at none against EchoHunt Music's 3. RunningBeat also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). EchoHunt Music's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
