Change of heart
I've gone from disliking this app to using it every day. I was wrong before. I should have taken time to get to know it and understand it, and now I have. I value it not only for helping me with my French pronunciation, but for providing a seemingly endless number of relevant examples for almost every word I look up. This app has become indispensable to me, and I'm grateful for everything it provides! Keep those examples coming!Show lessBlue Pine
Spotty
Having just read the first few pages of "Une ténébreuse affaire" with this dictionary aiding me, I can report that it is almost useless for reading works written before 1900 or so. Missing: coutil, guêtre, carnier, loup-cervier, factieux, rave (meaning betterave). Coverage is spotty.PurslanePursuits
The gold standard in translation dictionaries!
I have 3 different Collins-Robert dictionaries and have never found a better dictionary!Sardinitg
Very helpful
Well worth the investment - good idiomatic uses as well as explanations. Verb conjugations are useful. Flipping between French and English is easy. Multiple meanings are explained well.Madamecj

Very helpful, detailed reference particularly when used as a second resource after Google translate. Explains idioms and acronyms.ReaderNYRB
Worth the money
This is expensive by app standards especially for something you can get dozens of for free. But you'll be bothered by ads with those and, worse, you won't find words unless you enter them in unconjugated original form with no prefix or suffix. This dictionary is just much more useful and pleasing.Show lessdbcooper866393
Excellent Resource
It's been an excellent resource for my French studies. My phone is always with me so it's always easy to look up new words especially when I cannot take my dictionary with me. A little pricey though and that's why I'm taking away 1 star from my ratingP3tr0vsk1
Great app, with one little issue
This is easily the best French dictionary app. A lot of care was put into making the interface clean and intuitive. And the content comes from LeRobert- arguably the most authoritative source possible for the French language.
The only issue is that it's clumsy to close definitions. You open a definition by tapping on the word, but to close you have to click on a little "arrows" button on the other side of the screen. The definitions also stay open forever, so after awhile a bunch of definitions are open. I'd expect them to be closed automatically at some point, like when you open the app.Show lessYesNoCancel
Vast improvements
I like the "new" format, although it may have been implemented some time ago. I took 18 months off from French, so these improvements may have been in place for awhile. This is a thorough reference source. I may not ever use it to its fullest. 5 stars. -NKSoul on Trial
Outstanding.
I love the new interface. I'm a daily through-the-day student user. Fast search with everything I need instantly without having to fumble around. No mode switching required. Have had this a while in its prior version and I am BLOWN AWAY by the rewrite. Nicely done, ultralingua!maxlove00
