### 5/5 — Amazing Dictionary

*2026-07-27, version 1.1*

Excellent and highly recommended dictionary for students who want to learn French, just like me. It includes pronunciation by native French speakers, and it also provides the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet), which is an outstanding tool for learning how to pronounce each word correctly. Thank you for creating such a great dictionary.

### 4/5 — Best French English Dictionary available

*2026-02-20, version 1.1*

Where are the new words from the newly released versions of the dictionary? Otherwise great app.

### 2/5 — old version

*2025-10-12*

where are the new words from the newly released version? Otherwise great app

### 2/5 — Audio crashes

*2025-08-28*

When clicking audio icon in blue or grey it immideately crashes 😏

### 1/5 — Une mise à jour est vraiment nécessaire

*2025-03-22*

Larousse a toujours été la référence de dictionnaire. C’est la raison que j’ai acheté cette application. Mais c’est dommage que la mise à jour n’a pas été réalisée depuis très longtemps. J’espère qu’on pourrait avoir une nouvelle version de ce dictionnaire de renommé très prochainement.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2021-05-05, version 1.1*

This is my most used dictionary for years! The usage examples are excellent and extensive. Pronunciation of main words and primary example phrases works, but secondary pronunciation links (pronunciation of the English definition for a French word or the French explanation of an English word) don’t. Comments on idiomatic usages and grammatical nuances are explained in detail and provided with many examples.

### 1/5 — Please fix audio bug

*2020-09-02, version 1.1*

Some of the audio files are missing from the server.

### 1/5 — So bad

*2020-09-01, version 1.1*

So bad

### 4/5 — Excellent App

*2020-08-09, version 1.1*

This app covers a wide range of vocabulary: it is, after all Larousse’s “unabridged” French-English dictionary! So high marks for that, as it often has that obscure word that the others don’t (the only other recourse is apps like ‘Le Petit Robert’, ‘Le Robert Mobile’ or ‘Larousse Dictionnaire de français’ if you can read French reasonably well).
Unfortunately, it has omitted verb conjugations which the standard Larousse English-French dictionary treats very well with full conjugations for every verb.
It has links to high-quality sound files from native speakers for all the headwords and for a very large number of illustrative phrases and sentences. This is very useful for refining one’s pronunciation.
This app would score a top 5 if it included verb conjugations, especially considering its low price. Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — Possible fraud. Possible antiquity.

*2020-07-24, version 1.1*

This might be a fraud. Only translates single words. MP3 audio of pronunciation is not working. I would like my money back.
