Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Step Orbit at none against StepMe's 2. Step Orbit also leads on ads (none vs shown). StepMe's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
