Revopush vs Codemagic CodePush for React Native OTA

Both Revopush and Codemagic CodePush are managed alternatives to the old App Center CodePush flow.

The products have different scopes.

Revopush is built as a dedicated OTA platform for React Native teams. Codemagic is a broader mobile CI/CD platform that also offers a hosted CodePush-compatible service.

OTA delivery also depends on:

  • delivery efficiency
  • release visibility
  • React Native version support
  • Expo support
  • pricing at smaller and mid-sized MAU ranges

Comparison note: This page was updated on April 18, 2026 using current Revopush pricing and Codemagic's official documentation and product materials. Where a capability is described as missing for Codemagic, that reflects what is currently documented in their official materials.

Codemagic's managed offering

Codemagic's current official CodePush page does not describe a bare server-only offer. They position CodePush as a hosted and managed service, and their docs describe a web-based analytics dashboard with:

  • monthly usage analytics
  • downloads
  • installs
  • failed installs
  • per-release metrics

Codemagic operates a managed CodePush-compatible service inside a larger CI/CD product. Revopush focuses on OTA workflows:

  • Codemagic combines OTA delivery with its CI/CD platform
  • Revopush provides release-focused OTA workflows

Diff updates

The biggest product gap is diff updates.

Revopush supports diff updates from the first release, which means users can download only the changed parts of a bundle instead of repeatedly pulling a full update payload. That can reduce egress by up to 90%.

In Codemagic's current documentation and product materials, we did not find a documented diff-update or bundle-diffing feature. Their value proposition is centered on:

  • managed CodePush hosting
  • compatibility with the original Microsoft SDK
  • analytics
  • integration with Codemagic CI/CD

Codemagic's documented service differs from Revopush's diff-based delivery model.

Pricing and bandwidth

Codemagic's pricing is straightforward:

  • $99/month per 100K MAU
  • no limit on updates and bandwidth

That bundled bandwidth model is simple, but the entry point is still materially higher than Revopush.

Revopush pricing currently starts at:

  • $25/month for 50K MAU
  • 100 GB included egress
  • $0.03/GB over the limit

At the 50K MAU level, Revopush starts roughly 4x cheaper than Codemagic.

Diff updates lower payload size, which can reduce traffic and OTA delivery cost.

Expo support

Revopush supports Expo SDK integration today.

Codemagic documentation states that CodePush supports Expo apps using the Bare Workflow, while Managed Expo Workflow is not supported yet and is planned for the future.

Revopush supports a broader set of Expo workflows according to the documented offerings.

Summary

Revopush includes:

  • lower entry pricing
  • dedicated OTA admin workflows
  • React Native CLI support
  • Expo SDK integration
  • diff updates that can reduce egress by up to 90%
