# StudyChat Chinese vs Chinese Language Learning+

The clearest difference is rating: StudyChat Chinese at 5.0 against Chinese Language Learning+'s 4.5. StudyChat Chinese also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Chinese Language Learning+'s advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StudyChat Chinese sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Chinese Language Learning+ sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

StudyChat Chinese holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chinese Language Learning+ has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of StudyChat Chinese's written reviews are positive against 100% of Chinese Language Learning+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

StudyChat Chinese ships an update every 3 months, Chinese Language Learning+ monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
