# Focus One vs Stash

The clearest difference is monetization model: Focus One at free against Stash's freemium. Stash's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.2). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Focus One sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Stash sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 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 — 5.0 for Focus One against 5.0 for Stash. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 1 respectively. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
