# Smart vs Orunning

The clearest difference is rating: Orunning at 3.0 against Smart's 1.7. Orunning also leads on ratings volume (123 vs 6) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Smart's advantage is iOS requirement (7.0 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Orunning holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Orunning has 123 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Smart's written reviews are positive against 23% of Orunning's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Smart ships an update every 2 months, Orunning every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
