# AfterFocus vs Focos

The clearest difference is price: Focos at Free against AfterFocus's $0.99. Focos also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.1) and ratings volume (51K vs 77). AfterFocus's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (65% vs 50%). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Focos is free to download; AfterFocus costs $0.99 up front. Focos sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. AfterFocus asks for nothing beyond the download.

Focos holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focos has 51K ratings behind it against 77, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of AfterFocus's written reviews are positive against 50% of Focos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

AfterFocus ships an update every 2 months, Focos every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
