# Translator Keyboard vs Go Translate

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Translator Keyboard at 21K against Go Translate's 1.4K. Translator Keyboard also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and chart position (#140 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Translator Keyboard sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Go Translate sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Translator Keyboard holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Translator Keyboard has 21K ratings behind it against 1.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of Translator Keyboard's written reviews are positive against 60% of Go Translate's.

Translator Keyboard ships an update fortnightly, Go Translate every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
