Introducing your secret weapon for learning a new language… LingoPix is a vocabulary building system that combines pictures, audio, and interactivity to make words memorable. Build a deep vocabulary with thousands of picture flashcards • Tap the picture to hear the word for it spoken by a real person. • Tap again to hear it pronounced s-l-o-w-l-y. • Trying to remember a word and want a hint? Rub the empty area of the flashcard to reveal the word letter by letter. Learning words with pictures is great! • Pictures help your brain connect the letters and sounds of a new word with its meaning. • They enable immersive learning. See just the words of your new language along with pictures to explain them. Keep away words in your native language. • Learning with pictures is casual and digestible. When you have a little downtime, instead of picking up your phone for something mindless, treat your brain to a few new words. LingoCam. A fun new way to learn the words for things around you. Just point your camera at an object and hear the word for it spoken aloud. LingoCam operates with AI object recognition built with machine learning. A telescope lets you see faraway things. A microscope lets you see small things. LingoCam lets you see things in a new language. Perfect your accent with Speech Studio Record your voice, then hear your pronunciation compared with the teacher’s. You’ll be amazed as your accent melts away. Learn anytime with hands-free mode Press the Play button and cycle through words hands-free. Learn while exercising, doing housework, or cooking. Smart shuffle. Like a pipeline to pour words into your long-term memory. Smart shuffle is a unique spaced repetition system where each word to learn has a temperature. New words start “hot”. Hot words are reviewed frequently. “Cold” words are reviewed periodically, enough to retain them in long-term memory. Make an action plan Within seconds, create a personalized action plan to target the most useful words in the language. Just pick a goal and date, tap a button, and plot a course over the coming days and weeks to reach your goal. Receive a reminder on days of the week you’ve chosen for learning. Open the app and find a pack of “words for the day” prepared for you. Customizable flashcards With different program modes, you can choose to: • practice recognition of words from writing or from speech. • practice recall of words from memory. • fine-tune your accent. • repeat words many times in a row, when you want something to play in the background.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: LingoPix at none against Hilokal's shown. Hilokal's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (772 vs 84). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. LingoPix sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Hilokal sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
LingoPix holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hilokal has 772 ratings behind it against 84, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 44% and 44% positive.
LingoPix ships an update every 2 months, Hilokal every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
