RunVue

RunVue turns a run you already recorded into a short 3D video — seen along the streets you actually ran, by a camera that follows low above the road instead of a satellite far overhead. HOW IT WORKS Import a running workout from Apple Health (the route your Apple Watch or running app already saved there), or bring in a GPX or FIT file from a device that doesn't save routes to Health. RunVue builds a 3D scene of the streets and buildings along your route, matches your GPS track to the road, and renders a replay video — entirely on your iPhone. Maps are downloaded only in coarse regional tiles. WHAT YOU GET • A tracking third-person camera that follows your run down the street, low above the road • A pace and heart rate HUD, a mini-map, and section cards with splits • A finishing aerial sweep of your whole route with the streets and landmarks you passed • Vertical video (9:16), ready to save to Photos or share • Every run at 1x and Summary speed, completely free — no limit on how many videos you make • Three map themes and five background music tracks, all free, with preview before you save • Sky of the day — the light and weather from when you actually ran • Ghost race — run against a past run on the same course • Moments — slow-motion callouts for your fastest stretch, biggest climb and final push • My City — layer your runs on one city map and make monthly recap videos • A notification when a new run is ready to replay RUNVUE PRO Pro unlocks every playback speed (2x up to 60x), the Cinematic, Calm, Oblique and Aerial camera presets, and adjustable camera height and zoom. Everything else — unlimited videos at 1x and Summary, the Nav camera, the pace and heart-rate waveform at the bottom of the video and in the ending, the pace badge, heart rate, mini-map and section cards — stays free. New subscribers get the first month of Pro free. The small RunVue watermark appears in every video, free or Pro. Map themes and all five background music tracks are free for everyone. Pro also lets you race any past run, including your fastest, and make Year and All-time recap videos. Racing your most recent run and This month and Last month recaps are free. RunVue Pro is an auto-renewing subscription (Monthly or Yearly). It unlocks every playback speed, the Cinematic, Calm, Oblique and Aerial camera presets and camera height and zoom adjustment for every video you make while subscribed. Both plans include a 1-month free trial for new subscribers; unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends, it automatically converts to a paid subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can manage or cancel anytime in Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://juki-j.github.io/privacy-policy/runvue-en.html PRIVACY RunVue reads your running workouts from Apple Health (and, if you allow it, heart rate, speed, distance and calories to enrich the HUD), but never writes to Health, never requests your location directly, and never sends your route to a server. Network use: map tiles (coarse region number only), App Store purchases, Meta's SDK (ad-install measurement) and, for free users, Google AdMob, with consent where required (one ad after saving; personalized only if you allow tracking). Pro shows no ads. The app never sends your GPS routes, precise location or Health data to a server or to ad or measurement SDKs (except videos you share yourself).

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ftonf at none against RunVue's 2. ftonf also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (4 vs 1). RunVue's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price there is nothing between them.
