### 4/5 — Idea

*2026-09-07, version 17.2*

Please have people copy and paste images from google or 
  from iPhone galaxy etc to flash cards quiz’s learn etc everywhere images pictures also Jeopardy
Wheel of fortune YouTube videos copy the link to see etc and for Jeopardy also adding images flash cards etc please

### 2/5 — No tech support

*2026-09-05, version 17.2*

The app works great at first: you can look words up then add them to flashcards. But then the AI will randomly add images to the front of the flashcard, ruining the purpose of it. There’s no way to change that setting. The only way to reach them is an “email us” button, which crashes the app every time I click it.

### 2/5 — Give me context translation all the time

*2026-08-31, version 17.1*

I use this app for the invaluable context feature. That is the purpose of this app. So why, in the name of god, do certain translations simply give me a regular google translate style result with no context? This has been the case for years and it’s always totally arbitrary and infuriating!!!

### 4/5 — Strongly suggest a spelling mode

*2026-08-03*

To make the experience even better, I have four quick feature suggestions:
1. Spelling Mode for Flashcards: Add a typing mode after reviewing flashcards to reinforce active recall and spelling accuracy.
2. Clickable Words in Example Sentences: Make individual words inside translation examples clickable so users can instantly look them up and save them without manual typing.
3. Auto-Pronunciation: Add an option across mobile and desktop to automatically play audio after looking up a word or sentence.
4. Verb Conjugation Exercises: Introduce interactive practice modules where learners can select specific verbs/tenses and type out conjugations.

Thank you for your time and for creating such a wonderful app!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your nice comment and suggestions. We have clickable words in definitions, but not in examples as we believe it can create confusion. When you dictate a word to translate, the app answers you with voice directly. We have an option to pronounce all terms in flashcards (autoplay), but not yet on search. We'll consider all. Thanks again. And please update to version 17. You'll see a lot of new features.

### 3/5 — Preço caro app ok

*2026-07-09*

App é bom, mas o preço para real brasileiro é fora de realidade para muitos, por favor ajustem o preço para o Brasil! Eu pagaria se não fosse tão caro

### 2/5 — Suggestions in quizzes

*2026-05-02, version 16.8.5*

I use this app primarily to memorize words I searched with the quiz. But, there is no way to turn off the “suggested” words that the app chose for me. I already blocked 200 of these, one by one, almost every quiz. LET ME DISABLE THAT. I don’t want your recommendations I’m doing fine thanks. 5/5 app if they fix that

### 5/5 — Perfeito

*2026-05-01*

Aplicativo é incrível com traduções bem fidedignas.

### 2/5 — Demande

*2026-04-30*

est un outil assez bon, il a tout ce qui est indispensable pour apprendre une nouvelle langue, cependant l’annuité et la mensualité sont intéressantes, leurs prix sont assez élevés pour une personne qui veut apprendre une langue. En restant réaliste, ceux qui utilisent le plus ces applications sont les jeunes étudiants et il est presque impossible de payer ces mensualités. C’est pourquoi je donne trois étoiles car c’est trop cher à payer.

**Developer response:** Bonjour, merci pour ce message. Notre application peut s'utiliser gratuitement pour de nombreuses fonctions. L'abonnement est très abordable, moins de 4euros / mois pour toutes les fonctionnalités (carnet de vocabulaire, apprentissage, traduction, dictionnaire, définitions). C'est beaucoup moins cher que beaucoup d'applications et nous avons un prix spécial étudiant sur le web. Merci cs@reverso.net

### 5/5 — Best

*2026-04-27*

This is the best app I have ever come across in my life. It’s so worthy every time I check a meaning of a word. It gives you all other meanings that are relevant or available in the world like one word can mean hundreds of meaning and it gives you a example and a sentence. It also has a feature of microphone. It also gives you an audio and then test you already. If you’re speaking correctly, I have never Felt such a worth it app in a while, and it’s miracle. It’s very very lovely yaar must try for the French learners or any language and particularly learning French so for French, this is the Best.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your kind message. We're always very happy to see enthusiastic users are we are devoted to creating the best possible experience in translation and learning. cs@reverso.net

### 3/5 — Not worth the $ spent

*2026-04-19*

You can obviously try the free trial but I can save your time - don’t! There’s free apps that do the exactly same thing BUT without the translation and pronunciation faults and wrong examples.

### 4/5 — Utile mais ergonomie horripilante

*2026-04-17*

Je suis un utilisateur intensif de Reverso in context. J’y suis abonné malgré son ergonomie insupportable. J’utilise Reverso pour chercher la traduction de mots ou expressions et souvent, je les note pour les introduire ensuite dans une application de smartcards pour les apprendre. 
J’en ai par dessus la tête de me voir sans cesse renvoyé dans l’écran “historique” et je perds un temps fou à en sortir pour aller à ce que je juge l’écran principal, celui où on saisit le mot à traduire.  Qui plus est, je ne suis pas amnésique à l’échelle d’un ou deux jours. En pratique, je ne recours JAMAIS à l’historique. 
MM. et Mmes les développeurs, merci de remédier à ce défaut majeur. Mettez éventuellement une option quelque part pour épargner le détour par l’historique aux utilisateurs qui ne le souhaitent pas. 
Accessoirement, la multiplication des traductions automatiques défaillantes sur internet a tendance à dégrader les performances de Reverso qui contient de plus en plus de traductions erronées. Ce n’est pas de sa faute. C’est un signe des temps et plus que jamais, il faut exercer son esprit critique face à l’IA pour écarter les traductions fantaisistes.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-04-12*

Must download and even incorporate this with laptop to understand work by just hoovering over the text.

**Developer response:** Thanks. Please spread the word. cs@reverso.net

### 5/5 — 👍🏻

*2026-04-11*

Nice!

**Developer response:** Thanks

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-04-08, version 16.8.5*

Absolutely love this app. Very helpful

### 2/5 — Don’t waste your time…

*2026-03-23, version 16.7*

Really bad grasp of Japanese - example sentences don’t even make sense and are far too complex to be useful.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — AI slop

*2026-09-07, version 17.2*

Deleting this because it’s gone full AI as well as software-as-a service. Ruined your own product.

### 1/5 — Useless without Context

*2026-07-02, version 16.9*

The only thing that is useful is Context and it’s the one service this app won’t provide. This app doesn’t need to be translation-focused; so many do that already. All of the value is in Context. It’s extremely puzzling and annoying because I can’t have this app and try to use reverso context in a browser. So that means there is no point in having the app. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — ???

*2026-05-13, version 16.9*

I wrote "Roman Catholic" and it said it was inappropriate content

### 1/5 — Quiz apenas com Mastered words

*2026-05-07*

O Quiz está com um bug que só gera mastered words, as palavras novas não estão sendo mais utilizadas.

**Developer response:** Hello, please update to version 17.1 it shouldn't be the case, and we support Brazilian Portuguese. Thanks for your support cs@reverso.net 
Don't hesitate to send us a message with your details, and we'll inform you of changes.

### 1/5 — Wrong Russian translations

*2026-04-26, version 16.8.5*

Example: нёбо, translates as anything but the roof of the mouth, which is what that is. I used the word as a test for the app and at first it translated it as sky (небо) which, alright, is close enough, but once I tried writing it in the context of a sentence the app completely fumbled, translating it as back, body or for some reason baby???? I was just trying to find an app that can translate normal words, it’s not even a scientific name, what in the world is this 😭

### 1/5 — There’s some problems

*2026-03-04, version 16.7*

I subscribed and i have some errors in application ( The Reverso Context service cannot be reached. Please check your Internet connection or try again in a few moments.) 
Can you fix it because i paid money for service

### 1/5 — Hidden translation limit - no response from the team

*2026-03-01*

I've spent hundreds of hours adding translations to my library and carefully organizing them into categories.
I realized at some point that my older translations were getting deleted - and discovered there is a hidden 4000 translation limit. After reaching out to the team twice, I've received no response about this.

I have no problem with an explicit limit, but to silently delete your users' translations, and not offer a way to recuperate their lost translations - is horrible practice.

I've never left a one star rating on anything and I'll gladly remove this review if you resolve this.

**Developer response:** Hello, we're sorry for the inconvenience. We will try to expand the limit soon. We put this limit mostly to avoid performance problems, storage, synchronization, but it might be possible to expand it now with more powerful devices. cs@reverso.net

### 1/5 — Now useless

*2026-02-17, version 16.7*

I have been using this app for years but unfortunately I updated it and now it’s of no use to me because I can no longer see a list of conjugation s of verbs

### 1/5 — I would give it 0 stars if I could

*2026-02-14, version 16.7*

Not recommendable. I used the speaking part and I said a completely different word than what I was supposed to say and it still said good job. Clearly it just gives positive outcome. Hate the idea of ai too

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work properly

*2026-02-08*

I was excited to use it I almost bought it but unfortunately sometimes it doesn’t work properly I’m disappointed, very good idea though

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience. Can you please send us an e-mail with details on the problem you encountered at cs@reverso.net? It will help us identify the root cause more easily and improve our service.

### 5/5 — Beste App zum Übersetzen

*2026-09-16*

Das ist mit Abstand die beste App zum Übersetzen und auch als Standard-Übersetzer. Ich habe mir sogar ein Jahresabo gegönnt. Normalerweise gebe ich kaum Geld im App Store aus. Diese App ist jeden Cent wert. Die Funktionen zum Üben einer Sprache sind ebenfalls sehr nützlich, auch wenn dies kein Kaufkriterium war.

**Developer response:** Danke.

### 5/5 — Idea

*2026-09-01, version 17.1*

Please add images to flash cards learn etc also Jeopardy triva wheel of fortune  etc also images zoom the images as many images as they want copy and paste images from google libery iPhone galaxy

### 5/5 — Idea

*2026-08-29, version 17.1*

Please add images to flash cards learn etc

### 5/5 — Great tool for learning a new language

*2026-08-04*

I have tried many translation/dictionary app’s while learning the Portuguese language. This app is by far the best to date. It gives proper definitions, whether it is a noun, adjective, preposition etc. You can save words/sentences for your private learning. They have developed a program for you to make personalized quizzes and flash cards. For some languages (English is one of them) they have lists already prepared by different groups. There is a paid feature which i have not tried yet. Trust me when I say this is a definite app you want in your learning toolbox. It is even good if you just want to broaden your vocabulary in the English language

**Developer response:** Thanks for your nice comment Kitty. You described our app perfectly. Don't hesitate to try our new version 17 and to update to premium. The Reverso team.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-30, version 16.9*

Great pain to pay thou would have been a 6-star if chronology was not capped by money

### 5/5 — So grateful

*2026-07-03, version 16.9*

The vast majority of translation apps leave Hebrew out entirely or do a slapdash job. Reverso has rich Hebrew content and useful insights.

Thank you for including Jews and Israel in your offering!

‏בבקשה!!!

### 5/5 — Bom

*2026-06-12*

Otimo

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-06-06, version 16.9*

Perfect

### 5/5 — Add Brazilian Portuguese, please!!!

*2026-05-29*

O app é sensacional. Só gostaria de pedir o idioma português BRASILEIRO 🇧🇷 por favor. Pq tem palavras e termos que são diferentes entre o português de Portugal e o português Brasileiro

### 5/5 — A great resource full of valuable information and insights for language learning.

*2026-05-06*

I’ve been using this for over a year and still learning, it offers so much info and options.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your comment. Indeed we have a lot of features and content, to help you translate and learn. cs@reverso.net
