Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FocusBox at 95% against Daylights's 50%. FocusBox also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). Daylights's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. FocusBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Daylights asks for nothing beyond the download.
Daylights 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 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of FocusBox's written reviews are positive against 50% of Daylights's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and August 21, 2026 respectively.
