Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 背点单词 at 5.0 against TingYue's 4.5. 背点单词 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). TingYue's advantage is ratings volume (413 vs 2) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
