My comments

-Sometimes certain words are not included
-if it is a 2-character expression, the English meaning is not given
- whenever l start the dictionary advertising always comes up first and l have to delete the advert first (this is acceptable as you do need advertising to operate) but it is a bit irritating
- my self study in Chinese has improved a lot and l do not have to depend on a teacher.

THANK YOU for your service.

Too many mistakes with tones

Perhaps there should be a link for users to send in their discoveries of mistakes.

Great app but..

This is very helpful for me as Cantonese is my second language. But recent update you are not able to cancel the ad once it’s finished. Please fix this !!

No Jyut Pin

An update or two ago, this app would show pronunciations in both jyut pin and pin yin. Now it’s even worse. It’s showing jyut pin as the pin yin!

My Go-To Chinese dictionary

The dictionary is the most versatile of all dictionaries I have used. A search can be done using English or Chinese (traditional or simplified characters). The pronunciation guide is given in both Cantonese and Mandarin. Aside from offering the meaning of a single word, the dictionary also lists phrases and idiomatic expressions using the word.

Very helpful

I love this app because it is the only one I found that does Cantonese translations. Thank you to the app developer!

Good but many ads

Generally quite good, but getting too heavy on advertising…

なぜこんな改悪を…

一検索で廣東話と普通話の表記&ピンインが同時に出てくる唯一無二の強みがあったのに、今度のアプデでピンインが広東語しか出なくなってしまった。なんでこんな改悪を、すぐ元に戻してくれ…

Update Disappointment!!

Why is the update a disappointment because it’s now messed up. Cantonese and Mandarin had swapped! Why do I want this app when I can use Google translation for free in Mandarin? Also I’ve purchased the removed ad and now the app doesn’t recognize!? I can’t restore my purchase…should have left this alone!! 😭😭

Update sucked

I dont know why but the recent update removed all my saved/favorited words, truly upsetting

Ads handling ruined this app

Although ads are important to app developers, the unusual way ads are handled by this app makes this otherwise nice app relatively useless. Sad.

Ads, ads, ads!

Cannot use the app because the large ads appear, take up almost the entire screen, not possible to close the ads, therefore cannot use the translation app!

Download now

This app is amazing,it helps me with my Chinese too!

Very Limited

This is exactly what it’s called, a dictionary. I’m a native Cantonese speaker. I have been using this app to make connections to Mandarin words.
And the only best use so far I’ve found is to search by Chinese characters to see how they’re pronounced in Canto (pronunciations are spot on A+). Aside from that, all else is very limited. Translating from English is limited to mostly single words. Put in two or more and it doesn’t always give you a translation. Basically don’t expect this to be like Google Translation which is also still very limited with Cantonese, too. Tip: if you searched Chinese words that you heard in Mandarin and it doesn’t give any results, it’s likely not used in that way in Canto.

广东话的发音

好好用的

Great but…

It is awesome, but I wish it would translate all words to Cantonese, not just the ones it can find in the app.

二是ji6不是yi6

低級錯誤,拼音都打不准

Very benefit

I like it very use ful

Great

Please less advertising

Delay/Lag!

The overall application was awesome and even better than other competitives; however, the reason I gave 4 stars only was the annoying typing delay/lag!

Please fix it!
