# EZ Screen Translator vs Screen Translate

The clearest difference is rating: EZ Screen Translator at 4.4 against Screen Translate's 3.8. EZ Screen Translator also leads on ratings volume (795 vs 12) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Screen Translate's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 19%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. EZ Screen Translator sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and Screen Translate sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

EZ Screen Translator holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EZ Screen Translator has 795 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of EZ Screen Translator's written reviews are positive against 60% of Screen Translate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

EZ Screen Translator ships an update every 10 days, Screen Translate every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
