Verdict
UDictionary Translator and Dialog both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Dialog's written reviews are positive against 59% of UDictionary Translator's. Dialog also leads on chart position (#115 vs unranked) and ratings volume (33K vs 9.3K). UDictionary Translator's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
