# Ghost vs LockFocus

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LockFocus at none against Ghost's 10. LockFocus also leads on ads (none vs shown). Ghost's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and rating there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ghost sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. LockFocus asks for nothing beyond the download.

LockFocus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ghost has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
