Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Cibo at every 2 days against iTranslate Voice's every 3 weeks. iTranslate Voice's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 10) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iTranslate Voice sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Cibo sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iTranslate Voice holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iTranslate Voice ships an update every 3 weeks, Cibo every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
