StepDex turns your daily walking into a Pokémon egg-hatching adventure. Every step brings you closer to hatching a new Pokémon — and the rarer it is, the more steps it takes. How it works: Receive a Mystery Egg with a random Pokémon, walk in real life using step data from Apple Health, watch your egg wobble and crack as you progress, then hatch your Pokémon with a celebration reveal and authentic cry. Add it to your StepDex and start your next egg. Features: Real step tracking via Apple HealthKit — works in the background, even with the app closed All 1,025 Pokémon species across Generations 1–9, including Legendaries and Mythicals Rarity-based hatching: ~1,000 steps for common Pokémon, 20,000+ for Legendaries Animated egg reactions — wobbling, cracking, and glowing as you near a hatch Full StepDex collection with sprites, types, abilities, and Pokédex entries Pokémon cry playback and Pokédex text-to-speech Custom nicknames and collection stats tracking Works offline after first load Your walking counts — whether it's a morning commute, a lunchtime stroll, or a weekend hike.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StepDex at none against Radstep's 7. StepDex also leads on ads (none vs shown). Radstep's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
