Got better

The version 2 works nice. All the bugs I encountered are fixed. On the other hand, the interface is a bit ugly.

Handy!

Its good for elementary and possibly intermediate people. You can check the meanings, pronunciation and conjugation quickly by tapping it. (Note: You have to be online to listen to the audio and cannot search the words or listen to the pron. in conjugation tables.)

Excellent Dictionary!

The design and the lightness and convenience is just perfect. All I want more is that Id like to make use of URL scheme!

A true bargain

This is an excellent, rich gem of a dictionary and a real bargain for the price. Better than many other French-English dictionaries many times more expensive. Bravo! (こちらのiPhone 6で問題なく音声が出ます)

Conjugated verbs missing

The app is good but can be better if we can search over the conjugated form of a verb.

Conjugated cerbs

There is no way to search a verb in conjugated verb. For a dictionary app it is no big deal to add -at least common verbs- verbs conjugated forms. Other than that its marvellous.

About voice

Unfortunately voice is not working. If you want to listen to sth. the dictionary is closing completely (on iphone 4s). Dictionary is perfect. But I think there has to be a large part to teach grammer as well. Of course with lots of examle sentences. I am ready to pay for it as long as affordable. Larousse is great je laime. :) jaime apprendre le français.

Great Reference and desperately needs an update

It hasnt been updated in years but as a reference it still works well. What hasnt worked for years now is audio. Please fix to help improve it as a learning tool with audio/pronunciations in English and French.

Great French Dictionary

Would be a 5, but last update was 3 years ago

Audio issues!

Ive been using this app on my iPad for about three months. Everything was great until these past two updates. When I click on the speaker sign for most words, I dont hear anything (its quite annoying!). Such a feature was one of the reasons I bought this app in the first place. I wanted to rate this app five stars but this problem needs fixing for this to happen. Please, fix that so I can continue enjoying the app!

Great dictionary, but please tweak the History Delete button

As another reviewer of a previous version mentioned, the direction of translation (English to French, or vice versa) should stay in the direction last used between uses of the app. It always defaults to English to French, which is a time-wasting inconvenience to me since I am most frequently looking for a translation from French to English. With this version, they fixed the list of words in the History to stay chronologically sorted from earliest-looked-up to latest-looked-up, instead of the previous buggy behavior of changing chronological direction each time the list is accessed. It would be nice if they would offer a sorting direction option; I would prefer chronologically descending instead of ascending. Please change the History features Delete button to say "Delete All", which is what it in fact does, and also prompt for confirmation. I was expecting that tapping it would allow me to choose which entries I wanted to delete, but Boom, all my History entries were gone. It is still a great dictionary, and I use it often.

Great app! (but be aware audio uses internet)

This is an outstanding dictionary for the price! Very complete and the conjugations are very useful. The app uses the internet to play audio, so if you are traveling and are worried about international data use, dont play the audio. Also, for those of us whose eyesight isnt great, the font size is quite small in portrait mode, although thankfully you can rotate your iPhone to landscape mode and the font size gets a lot bigger (or pinch to zoom, although instead of increasing font size, it just zooms in which means you need to scroll to read things properly). Update: Another complaint is that very few of the conjugated verbs seem to be available when looking up words in French. A common example: "suis" (1st person of être) exists, but other forms I tried (sommes, êtes, sois, etc.) do not. Im not sure why this capability is not there since they have all of the conjugations available. Looking up verbs in conjugated form is one strength of an electric dictionary, and I find it extremely useful (especially for irregular verbs, or when you are a beginner in the language and dont remember all of the conjugation rules). What is confusing about this is that the hypertexted words in the text does work even if the dictionary lookup does not (i.e. if you see an example sentence with a conjugated form of a verb, you can click on it and you will be taken to the entry for that verb, but typing in the same word to look it up does not work).

Great dictionary but no audio

This is such a great app but I need the audio. Please fix, my ears are lonely for the sweet sounds of French coming out of my iPhone. If the audio worked this would be 5 stars, no question.

Audio working now

I had trouble with audio on the iPad version, but working fine now. It does however require an Internet connection. Very comprehensive with lots of phrases. Highly recommended.

Hurry, fix the audio

The audio works on my iPod Touch 4 but not on my iPad 3. PLEASE MAKE IT A PRIORITY TO FIX THIS IMPORTANT FEATURE. I would enjoy the app so much more and would rate it a 5.

Beware: currently no audio

I would have given this 5 stars but a few weeks ago I noticed the audio stopped functioning. I checked all the settings and made sure I was connected to internet, yet still no success. Without audio this app loses much of its value; this feature was the reason why I chose this app. Please prioritize fixing this issue.

Terrific

I was hesitant to purchase this app after reading the reviews but decided to give it a chance. So far its great. The audio works fine -- maybe it requires an Internet connection. And contrary to some reviewer remarks, it translates English-French and vice versa. Verb conjugations are available. So far a beautiful app!

Extremely useful

I love this dictionary! i have been using it in Paris while studying French. The history function helps me review difficult words on which I stumbled. Too bad the audio isnt working.

Amazing app

Very useful for those who want to study french. Sounds working normally with internet. Im brazilian and I liked very much this app, the best Ive ever seen. Thank you!!!!

Audio does not work!

I love this dictionary but the update for the apple iPad does not have audio! I need this for school. Please fix as soon as you can. Thank you The audio on PL Spanish does not work either.
