When something is bothering you, walk through it in a minute: • Who are you upset at, and what happened? • What does it affect — your pride, security, relationships, ambitions? • What are your defects of character in it — and the assets to replace them? • Pray the 7th-Step prayer, personalized to how you address your Higher Power. • Do you owe an amends? Who can you help next? Then copy or share the finished inventory, or save it to your private history to look back on. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you enter stays on your device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RapidStep10 at none against 12 Steps's 14. RapidStep10 also leads on ads (none vs shown). 12 Steps's advantage is ratings volume (15K vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
