Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ChallengeRunner at 4.5 against Wellbeing+'s 2.7. ChallengeRunner also leads on ratings volume (8.7K vs 30). Wellbeing+'s advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 15%) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ChallengeRunner holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChallengeRunner has 8.7K ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of ChallengeRunner's written reviews are positive against 50% of Wellbeing+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
