Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Mamoism at none against Focus Quest's shown. Mamoism also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Focus Quest's advantage is ratings volume (506 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
