I've noticed some words I've searched are not in the database, but it is still extensive. ### 4/5 — Good, but... *2015-11-04, version 1.5.0* It is definitely missing a few common words which are easily Googled. Other than that, it is a wonderfully easy app to use! ### 4/5 — German dictionary *2015-11-02, version 1.4.1* I love the way this app give the gender and plural of each word. It is my go-to app for German translation, though I have others. ### 4/5 — Nice *2015-09-13, version 1.4.1* Pros: Easy to use. Free. German to English AND English to German. Cons: There are ads. The pronunciation goes too fast, they should have a speed option. Occasionally you'll type in words and find that it doesn't have a translation. ### 4/5 — Cookie *2015-05-10, version 1.3.4* Useful and handy tool, for my purposes excellent. ### 5/5 — Sehr gut! *2015-04-11, version 1.4.1* Excellent bilingual dictionary. It would be super if the voice narration could sound out the abbreviated words rather than just spelling the abbreviation. ### 4/5 — Great app *2015-02-14, version 1.4.1* Great app. It would be ideal if it could detect the language itself. ie if you type a word in English it automatically picks that up and gives the german translation. Currently preselecting the language concession is time consuming if one is switching between. Excellent app otherwise!! ### 4/5 — Nice! *2015-01-23, version 1.4.1* The app is great, but would be made much better by being able to just type a word in either English or german and not have to preselect the language first. Secondly, it would be great to have a small glossary as to what the small abbreviations mean! would be very helpful! ### 5/5 — Wow! *2014-12-20, version 1.4.1* Excellent app! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2014-12-17, version 1.4.1* I find this dictionary extremely useful. ### 5/5 — Exceptional *2014-09-20, version 1.3.4* This translator provides you with everything you could want. Fast and concise. Love it! ### 5/5 — Just What I needed! *2014-09-11, version 1.3.3* This was perfect for what I was searching for! It's incredibly easy to navigate the app and it doesn't lag my iPhone! I also like how it's a 3 way dictionary! And how they show the pronunciation! ### 5/5 — German Dictionary *2014-08-11, version 1.3.3* It's a great app! I enjoy looking up words in both languages. Thank you for this great app! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not Helpful. *2018-06-28, version 1.7* But too many missing words. I speak both German and English well. At times I can't think of a word of one or the other language , and many times there is no translation. Haven't used other languages. ### 1/5 — Very poor translation *2017-01-06, version 1.5.1* Save your time, as this translator only correctly translated one out of five words that I put in to translate! ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2012-07-18, version 1.0.3* Every time I look for a word I make the mistake of trying to have it translated with this app. I shouldn't waste my time doing that and go right to the online dictionary. ### 2/5 — BB *2018-03-02, version 1.7* Add NEW WORDS ### 2/5 — Limited *2014-10-01, version 1.3.4* Can't find simple word and unlike the pictures to promote this, no articles are found. ### 2/5 — Nope *2014-04-13, version 1.3.2* This app is kind of awful. It only returns about half of my searches with results, and sometimes the results have no translations, which is entirely why I downloaded it, so it's useless ### 2/5 — German to English *2013-08-03, version 1.1.1* Limited words with it. ### 3/5 — Ok, when connected *2018-06-17, version 1.7* Needs better functionality offline. ### 3/5 — Where are the plurals? *2015-10-11, version 1.4.1* Unlike other dictionary apps, I don't see plural forms of nouns listed. I'm not paying $3 for the ad-free version of the content is so light!!! ### 3/5 — Mr. AJC....h *2014-07-19, version 1.3.3* It is fairly helpful, but it lacks many common words that I have searched for. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sehr Toll ! *2018-04-10, version 1.7* Ich finde dieses App Sau-gut..... ### 5/5 — German Dictionary *2017-03-19, version 1.5.1* This is a great app I use it to work with my German shepard dog who is learning his commands in that language ### 5/5 — Easy to use and comprehensive *2016-07-03, version 1.5.1* Just started learning German on Duolingo. This is a great way to expand on it and I always keep the app open while I'm doing lessons so I can research and expand my vocabulary as I go along ### 5/5 — Handy! *2016-03-07, version 1.5.0* This is a quick and easy app which I use on my "handy"! No more sign language because I can easily find the German or English words I need! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2015-11-17, version 1.5.0* Please add more slang! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2015-11-05, version 1.5.0* This app is awesome ### 5/5 — Logo! *2015-11-04, version 1.5.0* This is great! Keep adding more words and phrases! ### 5/5 — Very Nice *2015-09-16, version 1.4.1* I really like this app, it is helping me learn German as I have a friend who is fluent in several languages including German. I converse with her in German sometimes and this app helps translates some of the words or phrases I don't know. Highly recommended ### 5/5 — Great App *2015-09-15, version 1.4.1* For someone just learning German, this app is quite easy to use and handy. It sure beats keeping a small pocket-sized dictionary in your pocket at all times. Good, quick reference. ### 5/5 — Great tool ! *2015-06-20, version 1.4.1* This app is great in that you can speak the English or German phrase into the microphone and have it speak it translated. Helps tremendously, and if in a jam (normally a bit rude) , you can have each party use it to converse back & forth as a direct translator. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
