# SVFF Online vs Lingora

The clearest difference is rating: Lingora at 4.6 against SVFF Online's 3.5. Lingora also leads on ratings volume (49 vs 4) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SVFF Online sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Lingora sells 40 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Lingora holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lingora has 49 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 78% and 77% positive.

SVFF Online ships an update every 3 weeks, Lingora every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
