Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Learn German at none against Grammatisch's shown. Learn German also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Grammatisch's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Learn German sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Grammatisch sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Grammatisch holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 549 and 720 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Learn German's written reviews are positive against 72% of Grammatisch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Learn German ships an update every 2 weeks, Grammatisch fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
