Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Void Convoy at none against Diamond District's 7. Void Convoy also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Diamond District's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (355 vs 1). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
