Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Disco Steps at none against StepsToday's shown. StepsToday's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (63% vs 50%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StepsToday sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Disco Steps sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Disco Steps holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StepsToday has 134 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of StepsToday's written reviews are positive against 50% of Disco Steps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

StepsToday ships an update every 9 days, Disco Steps every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
