It is unfortunately less (maybe much less) comprehensive than the other Collins bilingual dictionaries (German and Spanish anyway). ### 3/5 — Not very good selection of words. *2025-07-08* There are many words that the default apple Portuguese-Portuguese dictionary gets but this paid product doesn’t. Like “viúva” ### 1/5 — lacks advertised functionality *2024-09-26* there is currently no icloud sync. both the bookshelf and individual collins dictionaries by the same developer advertise syncing favorites and transferring them to other devices but this function is broken which, for an app with this price tag, is unacceptable. the developer responded to an email inquiry letting me know that they are aware and have no timeline as to when a fix can be expected. i have many favorites in an individual dictionary app and after buying another one of their expensive dictionaries i am unable to use them both in the bookshelf app because there is no way of transferring all the favorites. the favorites also don’t sync between the iphone and ipad versions of the dictionary or bookshelf apps. the developer either needs to provide a fix, which honestly is not that serious of a coding job, or update the store description before people spend $18 for each of their dictionaries expecting the advertised features. ### 1/5 — Speech doesn’t work *2024-07-08* App crashes when trying to use the speak function. Waste of $20 ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2024-04-28* I had high hopes for this dictionary unfortunately it was a bit of a let down. What kind of a dictionary in this day and age doesn’t offer a feature to hear the word’s pronounced? The only way to get this feature is by highlighting the word then scroll to find “speak” option. Very clunky. They should learn from Pleco dictionary app! ### 4/5 — Good, not great *2023-10-06* This is dictionary’s better if you speak British English as opposed to American English because terms are different. Also, it oftentimes has the definition of phrases but those only appear if you put in a particular word, e.g. falar; the definition doesn’t appear when searching for the phrase. ### 3/5 — Oops! *2021-03-12* I said in my last review that I couldn’t move back from conjugations to the general dictionary. Completely wrong! It is exceptionally good and I can’t fault it ### 5/5 — It takes time to appreciate this... *2021-02-24* As someone who has been living in Brazil for a number of years now, I have learned to appreciate this app. Yes, it’s relatively expensive, and yes, there are alternatives out there, for sure, but they are mostly dependent on internet connectivity and very often lacking. This is a standalone with all the features included. The conjugation explanations are often limited, but I’ve discerned the reasoning behind the omissions: the uncommon usage of such verbs and their conjugations. Moreover, most of the conjugations in Brazilian grammar are for literary purposes. If you are studying the language, as a foreigner, to completely master it like a highly educated native, then you are going to need a lot more than an app. Even most Brazilians don’t know all the conjugations, just like most English speakers cannot explain most of the english grammar rules. This app is for someone who plans to live in Brazil for a long time, as it is (IMO) a VERY good, and well thought-out reference application. And btw, it is linked to the internal ios Portuguese-English dictionary, which makes it a full dictionary in addition to a conjugator. I use this app EVERY day and my return on investmemt has been 100 percent! ### 3/5 — *** *2020-04-10* Submit? ### 1/5 — Poderia ser mais completo! *2019-01-31* Acabo de baixar o dicionário pra ter uma versão off line disponível e, nos primeiros 10 minutos de uso, precisei consultar 3 palavras que não existem no dicionário: to hone / proclivity / havoc .... Puxa... me arrendi da compra ! :( Gostaria de ter feito uma pesquisa melhor a respeito do aplicativo e, ter escolhido uma opção mais completa e melhor. ## Frequently asked questions about Collins Portuguese ### What does the Collins Portuguese-English app do?
