# Walker vs StepsToday

The clearest difference is update cadence: StepsToday at every 2 weeks against Walker's every 3 months. StepsToday also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). Walker's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 131). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Walker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and StepsToday sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Walker against 4.6 for StepsToday. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Walker has 1.6K ratings behind it against 131, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 67% of Walker's written reviews are positive against 63% of StepsToday's.

Walker ships an update every 3 months, StepsToday every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
