Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MPT Training at none against Steps's 1. MPT Training also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Steps's advantage is ratings volume (134K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
