# StepFit vs Steps

The clearest difference is rating: Steps at 5.0 against StepFit's 4.3. Steps also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). StepFit's advantage is ratings volume (40 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StepFit sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $11.49 per month and Steps sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Steps holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StepFit has 40 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

StepFit ships an update every 6 weeks, Steps every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
