# My Little Pomodoro vs Focus Kitty

The clearest difference is ads: Focus Kitty at none against My Little Pomodoro's shown. Focus Kitty also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). My Little Pomodoro's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (273 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Little Pomodoro sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Focus Kitty sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Focus Kitty holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Little Pomodoro has 273 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
