Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: xDelete at 73% against DINANTronics's 8%. xDelete also leads on rating (4.7 vs 1.6) and ratings volume (498 vs 23). DINANTronics's advantage is monetization model (free vs paid) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
