# Juno vs Melt Focus

The clearest difference is monetization model: Juno at free with in-app purchases against Melt Focus's subscription. Juno also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 14) and chart position (#146 vs unranked). Melt Focus's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 70%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Juno sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Melt Focus sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Juno against 4.9 for Melt Focus. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Juno has 10K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 70% of Juno's written reviews are positive against 100% of Melt Focus's.

Juno ships an update weekly, Melt Focus fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
