# Runify vs SprintBase

The clearest difference is rating: Runify at 4.8 against SprintBase's 3.8. Runify also leads on ratings volume (244 vs 6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). SprintBase's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 66%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Runify sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and SprintBase sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Runify holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Runify has 244 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Runify's written reviews are positive against 78% of SprintBase's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Runify ships an update fortnightly, SprintBase every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 18, 2026.
