Sõnamobi
Read full descriptionHide full description
This is just a mobile interface for accessing the Sõnaveeb online dictionary. Requires internet connection obviously. Makes it easier to look up words on a phone, should be used instead of that tab in your mobile browser. Why is it better: * Less requests and caching, hence faster answers. * Easy to operate with one hand. * Words forms are right there. * Definitions translation on tap. * Search history. * Dark mode. * No tracking and no ads. The app is not authorized by EKI, it's an independent work.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sõnamobi at none against Estonian Reader's shown. Sõnamobi also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Estonian Reader's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
