Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Cat Translator at Free against AR's $5.99. Cat Translator also leads on rating (4.6 vs 2.8) and ratings volume (22K vs 68). AR's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (37% vs 17%). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cat Translator holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Translator has 22K ratings behind it against 68, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of AR's written reviews are positive against 17% of Cat Translator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AR ships an update every 5 weeks, Cat Translator weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
