# Time Manage vs Focusi

The clearest difference is rating: Time Manage at 5.0 against Focusi's 4.4. Time Manage also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Focusi's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time Manage sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Focusi sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time Manage holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focusi has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Time Manage's written reviews are positive against 61% of Focusi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Time Manage ships an update every 4 days, Focusi every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 25, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
