Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Decks at none against Learn German with Flash cards's shown. Decks also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Learn German with Flash cards's advantage is ratings volume (280 vs 3) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
