# 忘不了英语 vs 不背单词

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 忘不了英语 at none against 不背单词's 10. 忘不了英语 also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). 不背单词's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 27 months) and ratings volume (3.6K vs 14). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 不背单词 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. 忘不了英语 asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for 忘不了英语 against 4.8 for 不背单词. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 不背单词 has 3.6K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 80% of 忘不了英语's written reviews are positive against 94% of 不背单词's.

忘不了英语 ships an update every 27 months, 不背单词 every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
