Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: 扇贝听力口语 at none against 朗易思听's shown. 扇贝听力口语 also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (628 vs 96). 朗易思听's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. 朗易思听 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and 扇贝听力口语 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

扇贝听力口语 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 扇贝听力口语 has 628 ratings behind it against 96, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of 朗易思听's written reviews are positive against 91% of 扇贝听力口语's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

朗易思听 ships an update every 5 weeks, 扇贝听力口语 every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
