Verdict
DLC Mobile and PyCon US both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of PyCon US's written reviews are positive against 30% of DLC Mobile's. PyCon US also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). DLC Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 8) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
