Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Step at 5.0 against YMCABHAM's 2.3. Step also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (13.5 vs 15.1). YMCABHAM's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 24 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
