Earn time Count steps, walking and running distance, Apple Health exercise minutes, or time spent in apps you pick. You choose which apps count. Add several earning conditions to a rule and adjust how many minutes each one earns. Choose your apps Pick the games, video apps, social media, and sites you want to limit.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FocusForFun at none against # Type's 4. # Type's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
