Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: iDev News at none against DevOps.com's shown. iDev News also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). DevOps.com's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 4) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for DevOps.com against 5.0 for iDev News. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DevOps.com has 20 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on June 24, 2026 and July 22, 2026 respectively.
