Looking for a Gus on the Go alternative? Gus on the Go and EveryLingo are both made for young children, but they do different jobs. Here is how they compare on age, languages, price and whether you can add your own words, using facts each app publishes, checked 23 October 2026.
Yes, especially for bilingual children. Gus on the Go has about 90 words per language, in a separate app for each language. EveryLingo has 720+ words in one app across 142 language options, and a child doesn't need to know one language before starting another, because every picture shows the word in two languages at once, each with its own sound. You can add your own words and voice.
