Into is used for passing through, and in is used for locating something inside of something.
For example
I went into the kitchen ( normally from the hall into the kitchen.)
She poured the milk into the bucket from the mug.( when we use into, there will be movement)
The book is in the bag.
The chocolate is in the pocket.
I left my purse in the office.(to show position of the things, we use it.
I hope you understood.

    Great answer! It must be confusing for ELLs because native speakers will also use “in” when we could also use “into,” (I went in the kitchen) though we’d never switch from “in” to “into” (“The book is into the bag” is a mistake we’d never make!). This is one of those usages that English speakers don’t consciously realize they choose automatically.
