Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dictionary Linguee at none against Thai Fast Dictionary's 7. Dictionary Linguee also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (11K vs 1). Thai Fast Dictionary's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Thai Fast Dictionary holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dictionary Linguee has 11K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Dictionary Linguee's written reviews are positive against 60% of Thai Fast Dictionary's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dictionary Linguee ships an update every 2 months, Thai Fast Dictionary every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
