Marshal Stack vs gitbay
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Marshal Stack
Read full descriptionHide full description
Marshal Stack is one screen for everything you have already shipped. Your apps in the App Store, the sites and APIs behind them, and the servers you run yourself — all read by one rule: green is fine, amber needs a look, red is down. WHAT IT WATCHES • App Store — rating, review count, latest version, and the release state: in review, rejected, ready for sale. • Sites and APIs — checked every minute, with the latency next to the result. A notification arrives when an address stops answering twice in a row, and again when it recovers. • Your own servers — CPU, memory, disk, load and the heaviest processes, reported by a small agent you install with one line on a machine you already own. • Alerts that say what to do, not only what broke — memory over the threshold, a process running from /tmp, a port that was not open yesterday. YOUR KEYS, YOUR MACHINES Connect your own App Store Connect key, or none at all. The server agent dials out over HTTPS: it opens no port, reads no files, touches no databases, and uninstalls with one command. There is no registration form. Sign in with GitHub, or just open the app and look around on sample data bundled inside it — no account, no keys, no network. ON THE WRIST The same three states on Apple Watch. A glance tells you whether anything needs you, and a tap opens the one thing that does. Free. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads, no third-party trackers.

gitbay is a CLI-first git forge. This is its iOS client: somewhere to read, review and respond when you are away from a keyboard. Sign in with a token you mint over SSH. There is no password, no browser flow, and no account with us — the app talks only to the instance you name, and the token stays in the device Keychain. BROWSE - Files, directory trees, and syntax-highlighted source - Commit history, a single commit with its patch, and blame - Branches, tags, and full-text search across a repository - READMEs and wikis, rendered as Markdown or Org REVIEW - Merge requests with the diff, file by file and hunk by hunk - Review threads anchored to diff lines, with replies and resolution - Approve, request changes, and merge with the strategies the server allows TRIAGE - Issues with labels, assignees, and milestones - Open, edit, comment, and close from the phone - Signature verdicts shown on every commit WATCH - A dashboard of what waits on your review, what is assigned to you, and what is still open - CI builds with their logs, and a trigger for any job the config names - Releases, organisations, teams, and profiles Every screen is backed by a command the server already exposes, so the app cannot drift from what the CLI and the web can do. Requires your own gitbay instance. gitbay is free software; the forge and this client are developed in the open at gitbay.org.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: gitbay at 2 against Marshal Stack's —. On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
