ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Innovative Language Learning holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Innovative Language Learning has 34K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Learn Dari's written reviews are positive against 67% of Innovative Language Learning's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Learn Dari ships an update every 8 months, Innovative Language Learning every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
