Grows on you

I wasn’t sure about this dictionary as it works in a different way to other dictionary apps I have used. Now I love it and appreciate the clever design and ease of use.

I used to love this app, but...

This app used to work beautifully, seamlessly, and had dozens of options and a great help file. But now...

— There is no help file (“Video Help Files” links to nothing and does nothing)

— There is no way to change the voice from European Spanish to Latin American Spanish or American English to British English

— There is no way to change from female to male voice.

— The app also hangs up about every few words, forcing the user to close and reopen.

Very good app

Very helpful and easy to use
On a par with Larousse

Compact Word Magic

It continually crashes.

Excellent

This seems to be a very good dictionary. It certainly serves my purpose as a beginner. Coverage of vocabulary seems to be pretty comprehensive and the design of the app is definitely well thought-out and user-friendly. I like the way you can call up verb conjugations from the headword. I use quite a few different dictionaries for different languages, and they are not all equally good. This is a good one.

Handy when traveling without local phone

I can use this handy Dictionary anywhere off-line without Wi-Fi or local phone. It is helpful that it references all expressions using the searched word. I use it multiple times a day when visiting my daughter in Santiago Chile and also used it studying Spanish.

Unfriendly UI

Difficult to understand how to get started w use. I don’t need to struggle with an app while trying to learn Spanish.

Excellent and thorough.

I own a lot of dictionary apps in multiple languages, and this may be the best one on my iPhone. It has a wealth of helpful detail on every word I've looked up.

Practical and Efficient

This Dictionary has many daily and practical uses, since you type in the word and it automatically detects if it is Spanish or English. Then it brings up the translation immediately. For a free version it is really a valuable help. However if you are looking for an exhaustive dictionary this will not cut it. (I am fluent in both languages so I just use this to either confirm or look up a new word, but not for regular use.)

Save by the bell

Hey!!! I paid for this app and now I'm getting charged to download it

Very thorough definitions

This is definitely one of the premier Spanish dictionaries available at any price. It gives ALL the possible translations for a given word. Also provides common phrases using the word. I especially like being able to enter a word in either language and get the translation in the other language. A simple thing, but most other dictionaries want you to tell up front what language to translate.

Very helpful

I use this constantly for my knowledge of Spanish words. I am teaching Spanish but have had 3 years over 60 years ago. Not being fluent this dictionary is invaluable!

LOVE IT! --Highly recommended

This is my "go to" dictionary for Spanish class. Just enter either the Spanish or English word, and up will come both the translation and some synonyms. I find it especially useful for deciding which synonym is most appropriate. I also greatly appreciate the opportunity to listen to the word.

Brilliant

Nice app / use it loads.

Love it

This is a very useful App dictionary

Good

I haven't explored the whole app, but I think giving it fewer than five stars is like claiming there is something wrong with it, and I've yet to find anything to complain about. Good app.

Very worthwhile

I am using this app in conjunction with duo lingo and it helps me a lot with translation and examples. The two together work very well. The combination pack is excellent value for money. I am a very happy customer.

Very useful for expanding vocabulary

When I look up a word I can also see other words with similar spellings. I like to wander through Spanish words, their derivation, and their relations to other words. This is a most useful dictionary.

Excelente Range of Vocab & Phrases

Highly recommended! Definitely a one of my top five apps. There are very, very few words that I have not found here, it is very diverse and is full of useful phrases and idioms. I've tried many others and they can't compete...bravo!!

Roberto

Excellent. You can input words in either language. The app seems find it! I also find the verb conjugation useful. I think that option costs $1.
