# Focus vs Tracky

The clearest difference is rating: Tracky at 5.0 against Focus's 4.4. Tracky also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 9). Focus's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Focus sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Tracky asks for nothing beyond the download.

Tracky holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focus has 1.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
