Amazing Dictionary
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.

Une mise à jour est vraiment nécessaire
Larousse a toujours Ă©tĂ© la rĂ©fĂ©rence de dictionnaire. Câest la raison que jâai achetĂ© cette application. Mais câest dommage que la mise Ă jour nâa pas Ă©tĂ© rĂ©alisĂ©e depuis trĂšs longtemps. JâespĂšre quâon pourrait avoir une nouvelle version de ce dictionnaire de renommĂ© trĂšs prochainement.
Excellent
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) donât. Comments on idiomatic usages and grammatical nuances are explained in detail and provided with many examples.

Please fix audio bug
Some of the audio files are missing from the server.
So bad

Excellent App
This app covers a wide range of vocabulary: it is, after all Larousseâs âunabridgedâ French-English dictionary! So high marks for that, as it often has that obscure word that the others donât (the only other recourse is apps like âLe Petit Robertâ, âLe Robert Mobileâ or âLarousse Dictionnaire de françaisâ 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 oneâs pronunciation.
This app would score a top 5 if it included verb conjugations, especially considering its low price. Highly recommended.

Possible fraud. Possible antiquity.
This might be a fraud. Only translates single words. MP3 audio of pronunciation is not working. I would like my money back.
Please fix the pronunciation files on the Larousse server
Excellent content, but there is a problem with Larousse's server: many pronunciation files are missing, so you get constant error messages while using the app. This should be fixed. Otherwise, people are probably better off buying the cheaper Larousse English/French dictionary, because the content is very similar and you get many more pronunciations. Also, in the next version please add full-text search and the ability to add notes to bookmarks.

Interface vieillissante
Pas de mise à jour depuis 2 ans. Pas de prise en compte du format des nouveaux écrans. Pas de réponse aux emails, dans le passé ils répondaient. Quand on a payé pour une application, on devrait avoir des mises à jour. Non ?
Tres bon contenu mais interface Ă revoir
Lâinterface est maintenant dĂ©passĂ©e et nâest pas adaptĂ©e aux nouvelles tailles dâĂ©cran (XS Max, 11 pro Max). Cela serait bien de revoir cela.
Par ailleurs une fonction de conjugaison des verbes serait Ă©galement tres utile.
Merci de votre prise en compte de ces remarques.

Very Useful
This is the best French dictionary app by far that I have used as concerns the content. The entries have helpful examples nicely laid out by semantic function. Please, please update this app to run smoothly on the latest OS!
Needs an update
DO NOT BUY ! The majority of pronunciations do not work, the app is not optimized for IOS13, and crashes often. Disappointed Larousse charges so much for this app and will not fix these issues after years.
Instead use wordreference. It is free and has much better translations. Use Google translate if you need quick offline translations.

Manque dâergonomie
Vraiment cette application nâest pas pratique. En plus dâĂȘtre assez pauvre en recherche dâexpressions, les diffĂ©rentes langues et exemples ne se dĂ©marquent pas assez. Ce nâest pas trĂšs lisible pour des daltoniens lĂ©gers (10% des hommes). Et puis surtout la zone de saisie pour la recherche est trĂšs petite et mal placĂ©e. Dans le coin Ă gauche, alors que le drapeau Ă droite fait double emploi avec la commande flĂ©chĂ©e Français/anglais ou anglais/français. On se demande pourquoi les concepteurs laissent tant de place Ă lâaccessoire et si peu Ă lâessentiel.

Amazing French-English dictionary...especially for advanced speakers
I have been using this dictionary for close to three years and can say that is indispensable for non native speakers who want to communicate at a high level. Unfortunately, I think that some issues with the audio feature is causing people to ignore all the utility of this app. To be clear, I am am fluent in French, living in Francophone Africa and providing medical care in that context. However, being a non native speaker I still frequently encounter words I donât know (going to a hardware store, for example) or come upon times where the nuance of a word/phrase is very important. Thatâs where this dictionary is helpful because it not only gives the French-English translation but also gives the different translation in various contexts. For example the word ânutâ can mean a food, a piece of hardware, or my crazy neighbor, each of which will have a different French word for translation. This dictionary will give you all translations. Additionally, we sometimes have specific phrases using said word that arenât straightforward to translate, like âHeâs a fitness nut.â This dictionary usually gives you an equivalent phrase. In reverse, it will give you the many different contexts/translations of a French words and often includes common idioms under a given word with their non literal translation. A language beginner may not appreciate all the information here, because at that level one only needs basic translations and speaks in a more limited context. However with time one finds themselves coming across a whole variety of contexts that require a tool to understand the breadth of the French language. As someone who picked up this app towards the beginning of French studies and now has to use French for daily life tasks as well as in academic contexts, I cannot more highly recommend this app.

Very good
Need update to work smoothly on IOS 12 platform
The keyboard look very ugly on iPhone as itâs very big.

Ok when it works
I got this because of the audio features to help with my French pronunciation. The ones that work are great, but some cause the app to crash, others give network errors or say the mp3 doesnât exist .
Great for expanding, and actually remembering, new vocabulary
I really like using this app, I find it head and shoulders above the other ones Iâve used for actually learning a language. The search filters in real time, and the examples of how the word is used in different contexts makes it far more useful and memorable than a word in = word out translation.
Note to the developers - a âdid you mean?â spelling correction would be useful for clumsy thumbs. Also, think about including âsubmit a sentenceâ for you to review and add colloquial uses that are not already featured.
