Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: German Dictionary & Thesaurus at 4.8 against German Dictionary's 4.5. German Dictionary & Thesaurus also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). German Dictionary's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 15 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
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. German Dictionary sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and German Dictionary & Thesaurus sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
German Dictionary & Thesaurus holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 234 and 443 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of German Dictionary's written reviews are positive against 83% of German Dictionary & Thesaurus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
German Dictionary ships an update every 4 months, German Dictionary & Thesaurus every 15 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
