Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: French Dictionary + at 4.6 against MDICT's 3.8. French Dictionary + also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 41 months) and ratings volume (410 vs 12).

Both are free to download. French Dictionary + sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. MDICT asks for nothing beyond the download.
French Dictionary + holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: French Dictionary + has 410 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of French Dictionary +'s written reviews are positive against 67% of MDICT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
French Dictionary + ships an update every 2 months, MDICT every 41 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
