Verdict
The clearest difference is price: AppNatively Go at Free against Code App's $6.99. AppNatively Go also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). Code App's advantage is chart position (#2 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
