Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Outwalk at free with in-app purchases against Steps Tracker's subscription. Outwalk also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Steps Tracker's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Outwalk sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Steps Tracker sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Outwalk holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.1K and 2.3K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Outwalk's written reviews are positive against 69% of Steps Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Outwalk ships an update every 3 months, Steps Tracker weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
