Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: REO at 5.0 against WordReference Dictionary's 3.8. REO also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). WordReference Dictionary's advantage is ratings volume (32 vs 5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

REO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8.

Written reviews point the same way: 60% of WordReference Dictionary's written reviews are positive against 86% of REO's.
WordReference Dictionary ships an update monthly, REO every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
