Verdict

The call

Fluently and DingoLingo both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of DingoLingo's written reviews are positive against 65% of Fluently's. DingoLingo also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium). Fluently's advantage is ratings volume (6.1K vs 5) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
