Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Microsoft Translator at none against OfflineVideo's 1. Microsoft Translator also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (158K vs 19). OfflineVideo's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
