Verdict

The call

Lingualeo and Skyeng both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 74% of Lingualeo's written reviews are positive against 46% of Skyeng's. On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Lingualeo sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Skyeng sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Skyeng holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 762 and 2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Lingualeo's written reviews are positive against 46% of Skyeng's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lingualeo ships an update every 10 days, Skyeng fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
