# iTranslate Translator vs BiiB

The clearest difference is rating: iTranslate Translator at 4.7 against BiiB's 3.0. iTranslate Translator also leads on ratings volume (532K vs 2) and chart position (#32 vs unranked). BiiB's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (100% vs 69%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iTranslate Translator sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. BiiB asks for nothing beyond the download.

iTranslate Translator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iTranslate Translator has 532K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of iTranslate Translator's written reviews are positive against 100% of BiiB's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
