FACT: First Aid Communication Tool Communicating in different languages in the workplace becomes a lot easier with this practical tool. FACT translates between Dutch, French, English, Spanish, Romanian, Polish, Arabic, Farsi Dari, Pashto, Somalian and Ukrainian. It can also be used as a practice tool for language learning in the workplace. The user chooses his/her source language and the requested target language. Different languages can also be chosen. For each word, you always get the written word, its spoken version, and a supporting image in the selected languages. The vocabulary packages were established in partnership with VDAB and Le Forem as well as the sectors concerned. The user chooses the sectors he/she wants. The sector-specific words are organised in logical categories (equipment, machinery, components, maintenance, operations,…) allowing the user to quickly scroll to the right word. Furthermore, a specific search function (with autocomplete) is also provided in the different languages. The user can also create a set of favourites and practice with his/her favourites. The app is an initiative of the Province of West Flanders and was developed as part of the Interreg project AB Réfugiés-Emploi, in partnership with the following participants: POM West-Vlaanderen, VDAB, Le Forem, Ifapme, Mission Locale Douaisis, Entreprendre Ensemble, Rode Kruis Vlaanderen, Fedasil, Ligo Kortrijk-Roeselare, Edu+, Boerenbond, MTech+, Alimento, Horeca Forma Vlaanderen, Woodwize, Constructiv, Zorgnet Icuro, Travi, Vorm DC, Makkie, and Refu Interim. With the support of the European Regional Development Fund and Wallonia.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FACT at none against WRD's 17. FACT also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). WRD's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
