# PDF Translate Pro vs PDF

The clearest difference is ratings volume: PDF Translate Pro at 291 against PDF's 1. PDF Translate Pro also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PDF Translate Pro sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and PDF sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.1 for PDF Translate Pro against 4.0 for PDF. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PDF Translate Pro has 291 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

PDF Translate Pro ships an update every 8 days, PDF every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
