Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Translate ٞ at 4.6 against iTranslate Keyboard's 3.2. Translate ٞ also leads on review sentiment (60% vs 24%) and in-app purchases (none vs 6). iTranslate Keyboard's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
