Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: StepsMeter at 4.6 against Step Counter's 4.0. StepsMeter also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). Step Counter's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
