Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chronometer Lite at none against Focus To's 3. Chronometer Lite also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%). Focus To's advantage is ratings volume (15K vs 27) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Focus To sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Chronometer Lite asks for nothing beyond the download.
Focus To holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focus To has 15K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Chronometer Lite's written reviews are positive against 80% of Focus To's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Chronometer Lite ships an update every 4 months, Focus To every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
