RoxTarget turns your own times into a predicted finish for a fitness race of eight runs and eight stations, and a plan that gets you there. EVERY NUMBER IS YOURS Your predicted finish starts from a typical time at each station and swaps in your own as you log. Runs straight off a station are measured as runs under fatigue, so the prediction knows how much you fade, rather than assuming it. A PLAN THAT REWRITES ITSELF Pick your race and the days you can train. RoxTarget writes your sessions onto those days, all the way to race day, and rewrites the plan around what you log. The coming week is held still, so a session you have arranged your week around does not move under you. APPLE WATCH Time today's session, a full simulation, or a session of your own from your wrist. Each run and station is split with its heart rate, the walk between them is timed as a transition, and an outdoor run ends itself at its distance. Double tap finishes a movement on watches that support it. Workouts are saved to Health, and the session goes to the app when you save it. RACE DAY Predict lays out every run and station against a typical time. The race day sheet puts your splits end to end, with the time in the transition zones in the clock, so the last row is your finish. SQUADS Train with people. A squad shows each athlete's predicted finish beside yours, and a pair or a relay is predicted from its members' own times. Everyone racing the same event can join that race's open squad. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Sign in with a passkey, an email code or a link: there is no password to leave lying around. Your profile is only public if you switch it on, and you can delete your account and everything in it from Settings. RoxTarget works for HYROX and other fitness races with the same format. It is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by HYROX.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RoxTarget at none against RACO's 2. RoxTarget also leads on ads (none vs shown). RACO's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
