# MapStride vs RunCreator

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: MapStride at 16.2 against RunCreator's 18.6. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapStride sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and RunCreator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
