ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Focus Keeper holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focus Keeper has 32K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Focus Keeper's written reviews are positive against 79% of TomoNow 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Focus Keeper ships an update every 4 days, TomoNow 2 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
