# Focuster vs Stackby

The clearest difference is rating: Stackby at 4.3 against Focuster's 3.7. Stackby also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (42 vs 6). Focuster's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Focuster sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Stackby asks for nothing beyond the download.

Stackby holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stackby has 42 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Focuster's written reviews are positive against 74% of Stackby's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
