So we created the platform that gives the very same experience! OUR STORY 7 years ago, my father and I started learning a foreign language online but we soon realized there was something really wrong on the market. We learned several words and phrases but it was impossible to start speaking. Later on, we found a lot of people with the same problem and gave our entrepreneurial mindset, we set out a mission to create the platform that would truly give people a chance of learning a language. AFTER 7 YEARS of creating, testing and refining, HERE WE ARE! AVAILABLE LANGUAGES: · ENGLISH · SPANISH · FRENCH · ITALIAN · RUSSIAN with more than 5 intermediate languages.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Lingwing at none against My Words's shown. Lingwing also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (115 vs 3). My Words's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
