Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: walk.App at 4.4 against Pedometer's 3.6. walk.App also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (164 vs 5). Pedometer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (95% vs 79%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

walk.App holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: walk.App has 164 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of walk.App's written reviews are positive against 95% of Pedometer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

walk.App ships an update every 2 months, Pedometer every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
