Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Joyrun at none against Keep's shown. Joyrun also leads on review sentiment (66% vs 53%). Keep's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (17K vs 1.5K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Joyrun sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Keep sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Joyrun against 4.8 for Keep. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Keep has 17K ratings behind it against 1.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 66% of Joyrun's written reviews are positive against 53% of Keep's.
Joyrun ships an update every 3 weeks, Keep weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
