RUNOVA is an endless runner you play with your whole body. Prop your phone up, stand a few steps back, and run in place to move. Jump to jump. Crouch to slide. Step left or right to change lane. There is no controller and nothing to hold; the camera reads how you move, and the game answers. It is a game first. The workout is what happens while you are trying to beat your last score. WHAT YOU NEED • An iPhone and a few square metres of space • No equipment, no gym, no wearable HOW IT WORKS The camera watches your movement and turns it into the game. Everything is processed on your phone, in real time, and then discarded. YOUR CAMERA NEVER LEAVES YOUR PHONE No video is recorded. No frame is uploaded. Nothing is sent to a server, and the movement detection works with your phone completely offline. There is no analytics in this app of any kind. BUILT TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK • A weekly goal, set from your own answers rather than a number we picked • A day-by-day streak you can see at a glance • Live calorie estimates based on your own height, weight and age — kept on your phone • A guided first run that teaches you the moves before anything counts SUBSCRIPTION RUNOVA is a subscription with a free trial. The price, the billing period, and the trial length are always shown before you buy, in your own currency. Cancel any time in your Apple account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Talk Macros at 83% against RUNOVA's 0%. Talk Macros also leads on rating (4.5 vs 1.0) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). RUNOVA's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
