# Mondly vs Speekoo

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Mondly at 33K against Speekoo's 614. Mondly also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Speekoo's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 74%) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 16.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mondly sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Speekoo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Mondly against 4.8 for Speekoo. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mondly has 33K ratings behind it against 614, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 74% of Mondly's written reviews are positive against 86% of Speekoo's.

Mondly ships an update fortnightly, Speekoo monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
