Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: My Diggers at 5.0 against Brew Tracker's 4.5. My Diggers also leads on ads (none vs shown). Brew Tracker's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (45 vs 1). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Diggers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Brew Tracker asks for nothing beyond the download.
My Diggers holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brew Tracker has 45 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of My Diggers's written reviews are positive against 88% of Brew Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
