Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: YPT at none against Focus Tree's shown. YPT also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and device support (4 vs 2). Focus Tree's advantage is review sentiment (69% vs 56%) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 1.7K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
