Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Focused Mind at Free against VelociDrone's $7.99. Focused Mind also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). VelociDrone's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
