# Running Mile Tracker vs FitFile

The clearest difference is rating: FitFile at 4.8 against Running Mile Tracker's 4.5. FitFile also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 68%). Running Mile Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (578 vs 63).

Both are free to download. Running Mile Tracker sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and FitFile sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
