Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Translator* at none against Translator ·'s shown. Translator ·'s advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (23K vs 2.8K). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Translator · sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Translator* sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Translator · holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Translator · has 23K ratings behind it against 2.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 49% and 49% positive.
Translator · ships an update every 2 months, Translator* every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
