# FocusDown vs Focusin Pro

The clearest difference is ads: Focusin Pro at none against FocusDown's shown. FocusDown's advantage is ratings volume (77 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FocusDown sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Focusin Pro sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for FocusDown against 5.0 for Focusin Pro. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FocusDown has 77 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

FocusDown ships an update every 3 weeks, Focusin Pro fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
