Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: GitHub at 39K against Cache Master's 1. GitHub also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid) and chart position (#2 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. GitHub sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Cache Master sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Cache Master holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GitHub has 39K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
GitHub ships an update weekly, Cache Master every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
