Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pedometer World at 100% against World Walking's 39%. World Walking's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pedometer World sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and World Walking sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

World Walking holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: World Walking has 50 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pedometer World's written reviews are positive against 39% of World Walking's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pedometer World ships an update every 3 weeks, World Walking every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
