Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ultimate Focus at 85% against 웍스's 50%. Ultimate Focus also leads on ratings volume (183 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). 웍스's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

웍스 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ultimate Focus has 183 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Ultimate Focus's written reviews are positive against 50% of 웍스's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Ultimate Focus ships an update every 3 weeks, 웍스 every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
