Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Meds2Trace at none against Steps's 1. Meds2Trace also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Steps's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
