Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: eGovPH at none against IC's 5. eGovPH also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#165 vs unranked). IC's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (74% vs 65%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
