Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Simple Piano at 4.4 against Piano Chords Dictionary's 3.9. Simple Piano also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (6.4K vs 8). Piano Chords Dictionary's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simple Piano sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Piano Chords Dictionary asks for nothing beyond the download.
Simple Piano holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simple Piano has 6.4K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Simple Piano's written reviews are positive against 91% of Piano Chords Dictionary's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Simple Piano ships an update every 2 months, Piano Chords Dictionary every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and July 5, 2026 respectively.
