# Weight Tracker vs MySteps

The clearest difference is ratings volume: MySteps at 44K against Weight Tracker's 181. MySteps also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Weight Tracker's advantage is review sentiment (93% vs 80%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Weight Tracker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MySteps sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MySteps holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MySteps has 44K ratings behind it against 181, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Weight Tracker's written reviews are positive against 80% of MySteps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Weight Tracker ships an update every 6 weeks, MySteps every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 19, 2026.
