### 5/5 — Excellent app, no internet connection needed!

*2026-08-10*

I love this app for learning French - it has pronunciation, a variety of ways a word is used in everyday language and no matter which part of a verb you search for, the app will find the infinitive and conjugate the verb in full.
The best!

**Developer response:** Hello,
Thanks for the awesome review! We work hard to meet expectations like yours, and we’re happy to hear we hit the mark for you. I'm glad you like the features of our app.

### 4/5 — Too expensive for value

*2024-09-05*

Reasonable dictionary but  I would expect more value for the price i.e. spoken verbs conjugations and grammar content. Too expensive as is

We want to make our app perfect. Can you please email info@vidalingua.com, so we can work together to make it happen?
Angelica, Customer Success

### 5/5 — Pratique, ergonomique, perfectible

*2024-06-27*

Le champ de saisie de texte cherche dans les deux langues en même temps, très pratique. La possibilité de faire prononcer le mot est appréciable également. Je trouve l'ergonomie globale bien pensée. Par contre je dois souvent passer sur une autre appli pour traduire les expressions. Dommage.

**Developer response:** Bonjour,
Heureux de savoir que vous aimez la plupart des fonctionnalités de notre application. Merci pour votre retour sur la traduction de l'expression, je le transmettrai à l'équipe de développement produit.
Angelica, Customer Success
