Verdict
The clearest difference is price: LockFocus at Free against Kan Do's $2.99. LockFocus also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.0). Kan Do's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 1) and chart position (#41 vs unranked). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
