Indespensible
I've used this app to help me in reading French novels for years and think its scope and layout are superb.
I like my French
Learning French
Excellent French-english dictionary
I can find most of the words I'm looking for, and the ability to search on any part of speech is really useful. It's really easy to move from definitions to the verb tenses and back again. It would be a real bonus if it were possible to report "missing" words from within the app. On occasion I want to look up a word but it is missing from the dictionary. Otherwise excellent

Learning French
I like this app because of the examples for conjugations. However, I purchased this app because I thought that there were sentence examples. I am still learning how to use this app. Perhaps, I haven't figured out how to find the examples for sentences.
Stalling solved
Stalling problems noted in previous review have all been resolved in latest update. App works fast and flawlessly. Well done!
Trusty tool for years
Use it all the time as I read French newspapers or listen to France Info. The UI has improved over the years and is rather attractive. One quibble is that the app icon looks dated and could be improved upon. (Would be easier to find in my apps if it were more distinctive).
The language coverage is quite good in French although it lacks certain slang words.
I like the favorites feature too.

Very useful app - could be more comprehensive
I use this all the time for French to English (both ways). Generally pretty good but sometimes lets me down on more obscure words. Works fast. I seem to have a second app without a language - don't know why. Good on conjugation. Recommended until a bilingual Chambers comes along.
Good app
Very good French English dictionary, like the conjugations !! The app. Speaks the French if required, You receive both iPad and iPhone versions. I use the apps for learning French with the excellent duolingo, app. language course.
My most used app
I usually don't write reviews but I had to write one for Ultralingua. I recently moved to a francophone country and this app helps me navigate my intermediate level French in an all-French environment. I would not be able to do my work without it. Terms are super easy to look up and conjugations are super easy to access. I wouldn't ask for anything else of this app!

Serious bug somewhere
Repeatedly crashes. Switching between the dictionary and the the Safari browser seems to do something to damage the dictionary app. Of course switching between the dictionary and other apps is something you do without, so I would not buy this app! A fresh reinstall seems to work OK until I start multasking again, which re-damages the app. It will immediately begin to crash and get progressively worse until it's virtually unusable. I see this app hasn't been updated for a year now. Is it still being supported even? Who knows?
