# DigitsX vs The Boys

The clearest difference is ads: The Boys at none against DigitsX's shown. The Boys also leads on review sentiment (90% vs 64%). DigitsX's advantage is ratings volume (941 vs 26). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DigitsX sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month and The Boys sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 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 — 4.4 for DigitsX against 4.5 for The Boys. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DigitsX has 941 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 64% of DigitsX's written reviews are positive against 90% of The Boys's.

DigitsX ships an update monthly, The Boys every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
