Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Custom Counter at none against Focus Tally's shown. Custom Counter also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Focus Tally's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 3) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
