fab when learning a language

I used to use the website years ago to help with translations. Now I'm using the app for learning German, and finding it way better than a regular dictionary: I always get a translation (even when no hits in the (Oxford) dictionary), lots of definitions so always one I need, and the example sentences are just the best to see how a work functions in 'real life'. Fabulous. AND free!

Security Concerns

This app requires to connect to your local network even when you have downloaded a dictionary to use it offline. No other dictionary requires this. Until they properly explain why they do so without hiding behind the ridiculous excuse “we cannot disclose the technical details”, I prefer to have the app uninstalled.

Good but hard to read it ,the words are too small

IRL good but the words are too small

Accurate and reliable

I’ve tried many apps and I haven’t found any like this one, very accurate and reliable

Good, but add definitions

This application is pretty useful to understand the meaning of words in a foreign language. However, it claims that it is a dictionary, even though it translates words. I wish they would add definitions of words in addition to translations and context.

Brillante traductor

Lo uso desde hace 6 años y es muy útil, creo que con la AI se hará más potente, felicidades.

Excellent dictionary

I do wish it had a pronunciation feature for every language, but it's a good app overall.

I wish I could give five stars

This is the best dictionary app, hands down.

But I’m giving it 1 star simply because it crashes and freezes constantly. I’m sure the developer is busy with deepL, but apps crashing really should be a thing of the past, especially given that this is just a repackaged port of their website.
Also, when you tap the search bar, it will not automatically select and/or clear the previous input, so I find myself constantly typing a word, realizing it’s sandwiched up against my previous search term, and going in to edit it. This is a pretty small thing, but then again, it’s contrary to basically all other search bars, and annoying to have to do again and again.

Easy use

A useful app, very fast, multiple answers and helpful information.

So versatile and useful!

I love the Linguee app! One of its best features is the versatility. I am studying several languages on Duolingo, and often flip from there to the Linguee app to find a particular word. The pronunciation feature is very clear, and the many examples of the word in sentences from various sources is also very very useful. I highly recommend this app.
