LiT

Learn the languages other apps skip. Snap a photo of any text or object and LiT turns it into a lesson with translations, audio and flashcards, in Tagalog, Icelandic, Welsh, Swahili, Georgian, Polish, Greek and 80+ languages in total. SNAP. TRANSLATE. LEARN. 1. Take a photo of a page, a menu, a sign or a letter, or paste any text. 2. Read every sentence with its translation and tap any word to see what it means in context. 3. Save new words as flashcards and review them at the right time. MADE FOR SMALLER LANGUAGES Most apps teach the same ten languages. LiT works just as well for Icelandic, Estonian, Maltese, Welsh, Irish, Albanian, Croatian, Slovenian, Khmer, Nepali, Swahili or Zulu. Learn from real texts: a novel, your family's letters, a local newspaper or the menu on holiday. HEAR EVERY WORD Every text is read aloud by natural-sounding voices, in all 80+ languages. Choose a female or male voice, slow it down and follow along as each word lights up. UNDERSTAND, DON'T JUST TRANSLATE Tap a word to get its meaning in this exact sentence, with a short explanation of grammar and usage. Ask for a grammar deep dive when you want to know why a sentence works the way it does. LEARN FROM THE WORLD AROUND YOU Point your camera at everyday objects and learn what they are called: a cup, a bicycle, an umbrella. Each word comes with an example sentence. FLASHCARDS THAT STICK Save words with one tap. Review them with a simple rhythm: again, tomorrow, in four days or in a month. Your words stay in buckets from "New" to "Easy", so you always know where you stand. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no email, no name. Your photos are never stored on our servers and stay on your phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Word Notebook at none against LiT's 2. Word Notebook also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). LiT's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
