Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Strides sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and CanGoal sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Strides against 4.7 for CanGoal. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strides has 19K ratings behind it against 72, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 81% of Strides's written reviews are positive against 95% of CanGoal's.
