Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. 英漢字典 EC Dict sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Erudite Dictionary Translator sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Erudite Dictionary Translator holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Erudite Dictionary Translator has 172 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of 英漢字典 EC Dict's written reviews are positive against 79% of Erudite Dictionary Translator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
英漢字典 EC Dict ships an update every 2 months, Erudite Dictionary Translator every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 22, 2026.
