### 5/5 — Incontournable

*2026-08-20, version 9.2.15*

This app does everything a French learner could need, including pronunciation, translation, full verb conjugations, plus a general dictionary. The small annual fee is a bargain.

### 4/5 — Recent update made it bad for quick word look up

*2026-08-19*

After the recent update, for the dictionary function, the top result for the word search in the dictionary is covered by the word “do you want to translate?” Which makes it troublesome to scroll it down to unhide the top word and select it. Or mistakenly tapping “translate” button consumes unnecessary time to return to the dictionary and tap the right word, which was already shown at the top.

### 5/5 — Super appli

*2026-08-17, version 9.1.22*

Meilleure application pour l traduction.  Ça fonctionne à merveille

### 4/5 — Essential App

*2026-08-16, version 9.1.22*

I have utilized this French Translator dictionary for a number of years now. I am studying French very intensely now and use this app many times a day. I regarded it as absolutely essential to have a comprehensive manner to both deal with meaning as well as the conjugations in French to reinforce my learning. Superb app!

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-08-16, version 9.1.22*

Super

### 5/5 — A gem!

*2026-08-15, version 9.1.22*

Very useful. I like it a lot.

### 5/5 — Laura

*2026-08-14, version 9.1.22*

It’s my number one resource.

### 4/5 — Qualité

*2026-08-14*

Traduction littérale sur des longues phrases et erreur de choix de mots si le contexte n’est pas précisé. Mais pour une application gratuite, c’est tout à fait acceptable

**Developer response:** Bonjour,
Merci pour votre avis ! Pourriez-vous envoyer un courriel à info@vidalingua.com afin que nous puissions travailler ensemble pour perfectionner notre application ?
Angelica, Customer Success

Translation:

*2026-08-10, version 9.1.22*
