HOW IT WORKS - Pick the apps that distract you most - Chrona blocks them behind a quick effort - Do push-ups or squats — real reps, verified live by your camera - Earn minutes and get back to what matters WHAT CHANGES - Reclaim hours every week from mindless scrolling - Move a little every day — no gym, no program - Sleep better, focus more, feel less pulled by your phone - Build a streak you actually want to keep No lectures.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Screen Time & Focus at 100% against Pushscroll's 44%. Pushscroll's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Pushscroll sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Screen Time & Focus sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pushscroll holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pushscroll has 18K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Pushscroll's written reviews are positive against 100% of Screen Time & Focus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pushscroll ships an update every 3 days, Screen Time & Focus every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
