Trip Decks saves the phrases you choose into an ordered offline rehearsal that resumes where you stopped and revisits the lines you found difficult. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Trip Decks from Phrases. Build an ordered deck of up to 24 phrases in the current language, or try the arrival essentials deck. 2. Start rehearsal, try to recall each phrase, reveal the saved translation and phonetic guide, then mark your own recollection. Use slow speech when a compatible system voice is available. 3. Close and resume at the next phrase. Revisit difficult phrases in their original order, and share the complete bilingual deck. The bundled phrasebook, favorites, pronunciation coaching, quizzes, reviews, Travel Coach, field cards and tip calculator remain available. New decks refuse missing translations instead of silently substituting English. Rehearsal progress saves after each rating, and corrupt library files are preserved. WHAT TO KNOW Up to 50 saved decks with 1–24 phrases each. Decks retain their selected language and phrase text when the browsing language changes. Ratings are self-reported; completed passes do not measure or certify fluency. Text works offline, while speech needs an installed compatible system voice. Check important or sensitive communication with a qualified speaker. This does not translate arbitrary text or listen to a conversation. iPhone and iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Phrasepocket at none against ToPack's 1. Phrasepocket also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and price ($1.99 vs $2.99). ToPack's advantage is ratings volume (61 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On rating, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
