Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Полиглот at none against Learn German's shown. Полиглот also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Learn German's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (93% vs 75%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Полиглот sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Learn German sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Полиглот holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Learn German has 825 ratings behind it against 49, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Полиглот's written reviews are positive against 93% of Learn German's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Полиглот ships an update every 5 months, Learn German every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
