Please update!
Please update this so it can work with newer versions of IOS!! I loved this app so much but now it doesn’t work
Excellent
This excellent dictionary is very easy to use. I use it every day
Brilliant
Incredibly good dictionary - accurate, fast, neat and straightforward.
Update
Pretty useful app, but it would be nice if it was updated to iOS7.
Add gyro-sensitivity
Great dictionary. My one beef is that it doesn't have gyro-sensitivity, so it cannot be used with the wider screen/keyboard.
Excellent Translation tool
Having a basic knowledge of French I found this tool extremely useful finding the meaning of French words (on signs and menus etc.) when visiting French-speaking Québec.
No conjugaison
It's a very very simple dic. You should not pay for it. Might suit for tourists but not for French learners. My money wasted!!!
French-English dictionary
I have found this app to be very useful for finding words whilst reading a French novel. It's clear and easy to use.
Great as a basic reference
Excellent search engine often finds words when you have spelt them incorrectly (i.e. if looking up after just hearing a word).
Database is big - hardly ever can't find a word. Good for casual use (e.g. on holiday). However, it is not suitable for more complex translation (e.g. translating a novel) as it doesn't always contain all the different uses of a word or examples of how it's use differers in different contexts.
If you are doing advanced translation you need a more advanced dictionary.
Would like to see a way of storing user defined set(s) of words (rather than just a search history as now) to help with memorising a set of words.

Used daily in Paris
My iPhone had no service in Paris, but everywhere I went I was able to use this dictionary on the fly. I used it to help me read menus and signs. It was also helpful for composing questions. The speed and simple interface made this app very practical.
Great!!!
I use constantly. It's really good. I love that it leaves a history of the searched words, so later on you can review what you have learned.
Pretty Good, Needs a little improvement
This app is pretty good, especially for the price. However, I really wish it had landscape mode. Seems to have a decently large amount of entries and is very easy to search.
Really useful
I use this all the time. Works offline.
ACCIO French English dictionary
Just fine. Easy to use and quite complete.
Used it all over France
On a 3+ week trip to southern France and then Paris, this app was my constant companion. Provided invaluable help in deciphering signs and especially menu items. Only suggestion is to have it work in landscape.
New
I just got this app and it seems pretty good so far. Oh and for anybody who looks up "to ride" you won't find it because in French there is no verb that means "to ride".
Perfect for my needs
As a student learning French I find this dictionary an excellent choice. I'm at about level B2, and it is very rare that I haven't found the word i'm looking for. I especially like that it has the verb conjugations in the search function, including the rarely used (in conversation) passé simple. The history function is wonderful; as I read and look up words it keeps track, and then I use the list to make flash cards. My one critique: no landscape mode. But not a big issue.

Good, but needs landscape mode.
This is app is good as a French dictionary, especially because it can identify other forms of words and words typed accent-less-ly, redirecting them to the appropriate entry. I have found great use for it.
The one complaint I really have is that it only works in portrait mode. Working in landscape would make this app much more convenient as the case I use (and that which most others use) leaves it to rest on a table in landscape mode, NOT portrait mode. Please fix!

It's good but
Why not build it so it will switch to landscape mode?
First Impression
Only just purchased ahead of France trip. Looks quite comprehensive in terms of French TO English but, disappointingly, there doesn't seem to be the reverse, i.e. English TO French will be another purchase.
