Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: GitHub at weekly against php's every 7 months. GitHub also leads on ratings volume (37K vs 43) and chart position (#2 vs unranked). php's advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 63%) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. php sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and GitHub sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for php against 4.8 for GitHub. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GitHub has 37K ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 90% of php's written reviews are positive against 63% of GitHub's.
php ships an update every 7 months, GitHub weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
