Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Time Left Today at 5.0 against FocusBox's 4.2. Time Left Today also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). FocusBox's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (13 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FocusBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Time Left Today sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Time Left Today holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FocusBox has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 95% of FocusBox's written reviews are positive against 100% of Time Left Today's.
FocusBox ships an update every 3 days, Time Left Today every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
