# Genopets vs Steplete

Genopets and Steplete both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Steplete's written reviews are positive against 62% of Genopets's. Genopets's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 2) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Genopets sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Steplete sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Genopets against 5.0 for Steplete. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Genopets has 3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 62% of Genopets's written reviews are positive against 100% of Steplete's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
