# 咕咚 vs 步律

The clearest difference is ads: 步律 at none against 咕咚's shown. 步律 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). 咕咚's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 咕咚 sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and 步律 sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

步律 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 咕咚 has 1.3K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
