### 4/5 — German App

*2023-03-23, version 10.1*

There are two issues I have. First, the nouns don’t provide a gender(der,die,das) making it necessary to find  the gender elsewhere. Second, it’s often problematic converting from German to English and vice-versa. Beyond that, it’s very good.

### 4/5 — Please fix this bug

*2021-01-24, version 10.1*

After update I can not copy the examples, why?

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2020-08-20, version 10.1*

It was the best dictionary I’ve had on my phone until I changed to iPhone. Now EVERY TIME I open the app, it tells me there is a new version available and ask me to download it. But the new one is obviously an other different dictionary... please stop asking me about this cause it irritates me!

### 5/5 — Dictionary

*2020-06-21, version 10.1*

That is really helpful for me because it is offline and has useful examples with English translated

### 4/5 — Very good with only one flaw

*2020-03-12, version 10.1*

I like the app, very useful indeed. but when i search for “liegen” the app stopped working.

### 5/5 — Super

*2020-03-01, version 10.1*

Sehr hilfreich, vor allem die Beispiele.

### 5/5 — Na

*2020-01-06, version 10.1*

So much help and its for free💕

### 4/5 — German dictionary

*2019-12-24, version 10.1*

I find the dictionary really helpful but agree with other users that we need the gender for easier use.

### 5/5 — Unterstützung im Ausland

*2019-11-04, version 10.1*

Falls eine Vokabel mal entfallen ist.

### 5/5 — Sehr gut

*2019-10-24, version 10.1*

Ich finde die App sehr hilfreich. Alles was ich wissen möchte wird mir angezeigt und übersetzt. Ich kann sie nur weiterempfehlen, vor allem fpr Schüler.👍🏻

### 3/5 — pop up

*2019-10-02, version 10.1*

it’s so annoying that they always show a pop up and leads us to another app. All the time. I had to delete this app. There are better apps than this

### 3/5 — Good app, but slow.

*2019-08-24, version 10.1*

It started a month ago with an update and the App refreshes once in a while and goes slow

### 5/5 — Very nice app

*2019-06-19, version 10.1*

Excellent app..I'm preparing for A1 and this is helping me a lot..

### 5/5 — sehr gutes tool

*2019-04-17, version 10.1*

funktioniert sehr gut

### 5/5 — Terrific German/English app!

*2019-04-08, version 10.1*

I am teaching my 5 granddaughters between ages of 4 to 12 and this app is a godsend! While I minored in German for two years 48 years ago and remember a lot, there were holes in my learning, things I’m not sure of, have forgotten, or never knew. With Worterbuch I can quickly check in either German or English correct nouns, articles, verbs, sentence structure, spelling, phrases, etc. it’s also easy for all but 4 year old to use. In addition, the German is current usage and there are some differences from what I learned in high school and college. My only question is how I can use family sharing since I initially uploaded to only one device. Great product!!!

### 5/5 — Verinder,India

*2019-04-03, version 10.1*

Very helpful for learnerAnd helpful in correcting sentences.

### 4/5 — Wundershoen

*2019-03-21, version 10.1*

### 5/5 — Einfach, intuitiv und fachlich gut!

*2019-02-07, version 10.1*

Tolle App die ich seit Jahren nutze und guten Gewissens empfehlen kann!

### 5/5 — User friendliness

*2019-01-31, version 10.1*

This dictionary lets you go calmly from language 1 to language 2 back and forth and rivals the famous ones in completeness. It does so with easily readable texts.

### 1/5 — Güncelleme

*2020-12-19, version 10.1*

Sürekli giriyorum ve güncelleme yapabilirsiniz diyor oka basıyorum güncelleme yok sinir bozucu

### 1/5 — Friert ständig ein. Sehr ärgerlich

*2018-01-18, version 10.1*

Durch die vielen Bugs ist die App leider nicht zu gebrauchen !

### 1/5 — Stürzt immer wieder ab

*2017-10-20, version 10.0*

Seit dem neuen Update stürzt die App immer wieder ab..
Erst funktioniert der Touch nicht mehr und dann stürzt die App ab.. 
bitte updaten!!

### 1/5 — Version 8 just makes ads more prominent

*2016-06-24, version 8.0*

The new version 8 "redesigned interface" puts the ads in the middle of the screen between the definition and the example sentences.  This has always been a minimal dictionary - more like a glossary.  Clearly evolving into just a vehicle to show ads.

### 1/5 — artikeller yok?

*2016-04-08, version 7.5*

almanca öğrenirken büyük eksiklik

### 1/5 — Still crashes

*2015-08-06, version 7.3*

Still crashes upon launch

### 1/5 — No artikels.?

*2014-11-25, version 5.1*

This app would have been great but german words not including their articles is unacceptable and renders this a useless app. Fix this and i will fix my rating

### 1/5 — Incomplete information

*2014-08-06, version 4.3*

This app is of no use in English to German translation as noun gender and declensions are not given.

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing

*2014-05-27*

This app has the potential to become great. The problem is it'll crash when not connected to the internet. Also, this app doesn't feature gender for german nouns...

### 1/5 — Worst App!!!

*2014-01-29, version 3.9*

This app is crashing so much that it feels like they have specially made a loop after every 10 second, it is bound to crash! I liked the ui and design but after using it, i feel like they have mistreated the user and this app should be either removed by apple or correct it if u can! Sick.

Sehr toll und nützlich fur lernern

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-08-20, version 10.1*

Came to the USA at age 3 as Displaced Persons but parents spoke German primarily in the home. I did take 2 years of German in college so I could learn to read and write.  Have traveled numerous times back to the Heimat and family members are always astounded by my grasp of German vocabulary…albeit with an accent- LoL however, this app always helps me to choose the best words and also how to spell them when needed. 
Vielen Dank noch mal!

### 5/5 — Best of all

*2020-12-23*

Very good , I use bravolol for all the languages !!

### 5/5 — Really useful

*2020-11-06, version 10.1*

The main good point of the app is that it has a really wide range of OFFLINE terms. 
Also, the suggestions while I’m looking for a term are really really useful. 
Then, the example phrases are quite good.

### 5/5 — Best!

*2020-10-24*

Very good dictionary! The best of this kind:) P.S. Please, remove this constant upgrade note after entering the app🙏

### 5/5 — Just awesome to have found this app!

*2020-10-17, version 10.1*

I appreciate the ease to use it.  I have had many years in German teaching and using, but so many years go by and I forget the correct way of some things.  TY again!
