## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very limited

*2016-04-26*

This app is very limited on the specific phrases I was looking for. I guess it would be beneficial to get just to communicate common words, but I wouldn't pay for an app like this. In works of getting a refund.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2013-03-24*

Volume is very low- all the way up on both the app and phone. Blew .99 on a crappy app. No use If you can't hear it.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2012-09-23*

Worthless for me as I need to say sow thing then have it translated.  This only has stores phrases

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2012-07-27*

Sound doesn't work - app is missing top of screen - disappointed

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2012-01-12*

Doesn't alow free text

### 1/5 — Piece-O-Crap!!!

*2011-04-10*

Don't buy this not worth a penny. It's not even a whole dictionary only small phrases!!! I don't like this GARBAGE!!!

### 1/5 — Don't

*2010-11-16*

One word....GARBAGE

### 1/5 — Limited program

*2010-03-13*

This program is helpful but extremely limited. You cannot look up specific words. It offers only common phrases in specific categories or situations.

### 2/5 — Lame

*2011-12-20*

All it offers is static words and their matching spanish equivelant organized into general categories. It does NOT accept free form text to be translated. I could have downloaded this free elsewhere .... UGH, any why is iTunes/Apps suppose to be awesome?

### 3/5 — cheapisascheapdoes

*2011-02-01*

maybe I want to much for 99 cents but disappointed. translation is to fast. words only said in spanish and not repeated in english - hence no verbal connection.  unless you just plan to play your ipod  to the spanish-speaking person you're trying to communicate with, I can't see this being much use.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Just works

*2011-01-02*

It's exactly what I needed. Find a phrase and hear it in a native voice. Perfect for getting around in mexico. I am also impressed by the new features like cut and paste and ability to email the phrases.

### 5/5 — Great value most phrases and Just works

*2011-01-01*

Found all the common phrases and was able to hear the voice in slow speed to learn the phrases. While also use the normal speed when using it in hotels and cafes. So all in all a complete package - great value for money. I have tried other similar apps and this has the most phrases.

*2010-02-18*

This app is very easy to use just search a word and then hear it in native spanish voice. The other good thing is it keeps adding phrases per feedback.
