Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: StepBeacon at none against Weight Tracker's shown. StepBeacon also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Weight Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
