Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Steps Tracker at 69% against The Oregon Trail's 16%. Steps Tracker also leads on rating (4.4 vs 2.3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). The Oregon Trail's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
