# Steps Tracker vs WALK

The clearest difference is monetization model: WALK at free with in-app purchases against Steps Tracker's subscription. WALK also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (100% vs 69%). Steps Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (2.3K vs 13) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Steps Tracker sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and WALK sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WALK holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Steps Tracker has 2.3K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 69% of Steps Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of WALK's.

Steps Tracker ships an update weekly, WALK every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 2, 2026 respectively.
