# Dictionary & Translator vs Indonesian.

The clearest difference is ads: Indonesian. at none against Dictionary & Translator's shown. Indonesian. also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Dictionary & Translator's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months).
