Oz Steps
Read full descriptionHide full description
Oz Steps is a pedometer story app inspired by the public-domain Oz book. Your real steps move Dorothy along a short story route from Kansas to the Emerald City, with silver shoes, curious companions, and small collectible relics appearing as your step count grows. The first half of the walk ends at the green gate. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks Return Road, the second half of the route: the Witch's road, the Golden Cap, Glinda, and the final walk back home. The paid route is designed as a story extension, not a subscription or external service. Features: - Pedometer progress through a literary story route - The first half of the Oz walk - Optional Return Road unlock for the second half - Original English app text written for this app - Public-domain book-inspired Oz framing - Silver shoes, not movie-specific ruby slippers - No account, no ads, no tracking, no location collection

Steporia is a step counter that turns your daily walk into a hatch. Every day brings an egg, your steps open rarer possibilities inside it, and three taps reveal a Gozu: one of 50 elemental creatures to collect on holographic cards. Free to download. HOW A DAY WORKS Each day brings one egg. It stirs as you walk: dormant, then glowing, then cracking. Miss a day and its egg still waits for you, up to six days back. When you are ready, three taps open it and a Gozu appears: an elemental creature of Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, or Lightning, pressed onto a holographic Gozu Card in your Dex. WALK TO OPEN MORE The step ladder is fixed and the same for every player. Uncommon opens at 2,501 steps, Rare at 5,001, Epic at 7,501, and at 10,000 steps the full rarity-element matrix is open. A quieter day still keeps your egg. It resolves as a Common Gozu, with an element just as likely as any other. MEET 50 GOZIES Fifty Gozies wait across five rarities and five elements, ten per element. A Gozu you have not met yet carries twice the selection weight of one you already own, so your Dex fills a little faster than chance alone. Duplicates group as quantities. YOUR DEX Filter by rarity or by element. Every card is holographic, with foil that deepens as rarity climbs, and a sigil, accent, and atmosphere that name each element without relying on color alone. TREND Look back over this week, last week, last month, or the year so far. See the steps you walked, your average day, the ground you covered, the energy you burned, and how it all compares with the period before. The best Gozies of that stretch are laid out as a hand of cards, so a longer stretch turns up rarer things rather than simply more of them. A GENTLE STREAK Set your own daily goal. Consecutive days that meet it improve the odds of the best rarity that day has already opened. Miss a day and the bonus resets. It never takes a Gozu away, and it never changes a hatch you have already seen. PRIVACY Steporia reads your step count, walking and running distance, and active energy from Apple Health, and writes nothing back to it. Your collection lives on your device. No account, no ads, and it works offline. Reduce Motion is supported. FREE, PRO OPTIONAL The daily egg, the hatch, the Dex, Trend, and your streak are all free. Steporia Pro adds three things: - Two Extra Eggs on each day Pro is active, beside your daily egg. - Collection Backup, which backs up your collection to your private iCloud. Restoring a backup never needs Pro. - The Today's Walk Home Screen widget, with your steps, streak, distance, energy, and the egg waiting for you. Choose an auto-renewing plan, which renews until you cancel, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Extra Eggs hatch under the same step ladder and odds as every other egg. If you bought Steporia while it was a paid app, Steporia Pro is yours for life at no charge. Walk. Hatch. Collect.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Steporia at none against Oz Steps's 1. Steporia also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). Oz Steps's advantage is iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
