Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Destruction.io at 4.6 against Dig In's 3.0. Destruction.io also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 44 months) and ratings volume (890 vs 5). Dig In's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (33% vs 20%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Destruction.io holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Destruction.io has 890 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Dig In's written reviews are positive against 20% of Destruction.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dig In ships an update every 44 months, Destruction.io every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
