Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: CoStep at none against StepsApp Pedometer's shown. CoStep also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). StepsApp Pedometer's advantage is ratings volume (297K vs 14) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. StepsApp Pedometer sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and CoStep sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CoStep holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StepsApp Pedometer has 297K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of StepsApp Pedometer's written reviews are positive against 75% of CoStep's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

StepsApp Pedometer ships an update every 6 days, CoStep every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 25, 2026 respectively.
