Runbo can use supported workout and health data their companion apps sync to Apple Health. There is no direct device connection, and available metrics and insight detail vary by source. Apple Watch provides the most complete experience and is required for Runbo’s watch features and Workout app export. Runbo analyzes your health data on your devices, needs no account and never sells your health data. Optional cloud features, such as Online AI and Connected Assistants, never receive raw Health samples. UNLOCK RUNBO PRO Full daily workout suggestions, personalized durations, and advanced training focus guidance. Pro also includes Connected Assistants, which lets Claude, Grok and other MCP assistants read the training summaries you approve.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Runbo at none against Traksta's shown. Traksta's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
