# Step Counter ⓒ vs More Steps

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Step Counter ⓒ at 4.2K against More Steps's 7. Step Counter ⓒ also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Step Counter ⓒ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and More Steps sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Step Counter ⓒ against 4.6 for More Steps. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Step Counter ⓒ has 4.2K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Step Counter ⓒ ships an update fortnightly, More Steps every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
