# RING MASTER vs Stepets

The clearest difference is rating: Stepets at 4.6 against RING MASTER's 3.7. Stepets also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (262 vs 3). RING MASTER's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RING MASTER sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Stepets sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
