I should have read closer. It is for people who speak Spanish and want to learn English! Very quick response from them however and great tech support responders -- even on weekends. ### 4/5 — Good basic dictionary for learning *2016-03-05* Seems good to me. It's got a lot of words and you don't need to be connected to the Internet to use it (vital for being out of the country). I'm happy with it. ### 4/5 — Bueno *2015-08-13, version 13.1* Very handy piece of kit. I have it installed both on my iPad and iPhone. The only slight problem I have is with the interface on the phone. The 'Translate button', 'switch between English and Spanish' and 'the Dustbin / Delete button' are in too close proximity of each other. ### 4/5 — Love it *2014-10-29, version 11.0* It's great! I've learned many phrases and words a teacher never bothers with, even though they're so interesting! Thank you! ### 3/5 — Needs more description *2014-10-10, version 10.0* The functionality is very good. I would like to see more description when multiple words are provided in a response making it easier to choose the most appropriate option. It would also help if gender was included with nouns. ### 3/5 — Well... *2014-07-04, version 9.7* It's less of a dictionary and more of a thesaurus. I wouldn't buy this app if you don't already have a good base of knowledge regarding Spanish. ### 4/5 — Fast and helpful *2014-05-07, version 9.6.1* This is a pretty god way to look for words or simple phrases. Great "word of the day" feature keeps one engaged on a daily basis ### 4/5 — Clean and Well Designed App *2014-04-17, version 9.5.5* Modeling it's UI after the iOS 7, this app takes advantage of the minimalist flat design as well as a nice menu of options that collapses towards the left. It offers plenty of words to translate however, many words are given in a seemingly random order as it does not elaborate on usage of such words like an ordinary dictionary. So far it is not worth $4.99 until the author adds dictionary support to help further understand proper usage of words instead of listing them flat out. Also adding conjugates and other features will literally make this the sleekest Spanish dictionary app in the App Store. ### 2/5 — Meh *2014-01-17, version 9.5.1* It's slow...the pronunciation is slow..it's just ok ### 4/5 — Love the flash card feature. *2013-10-16* I downloaded this app because I have just begun learning Spanish. It has alot of features such as the flash cards that I find useful. The voice feature is great too to help with pronunciation. Unfortunately I needed to download a different app to conjugate verbs tho because that ability did not exist here. Its Only downside really. ### 4/5 — Good reference tool *2013-09-18* I use this to support Rosetta Stone total e and the Duolingo app. I use it to look up words when I have questions. I also use the translator tool. I have found it works pretty well from English to Spanish or Spanish to English. ### 5/5 — ¡Muy bien! *2013-08-25, version 8.2* A mí me gusta mucho esta app. Lots of idiomatic phrases. Very helpful in translating Español to Inglés, and vice versa. ### 5/5 — Mr. Ahmad *2013-07-06, version 8.2* Very useful to increase your vocabulary , and pronounce in a good way . It needs to increase its vocabulary . ### 5/5 — Muy buena app *2013-07-06, version 8.2* Me encanta mucho. ### 5/5 — Works great well worth the Pesos *2013-06-18* A great Spanish dictionary requiring a fair knowledge of Spanish spelling. I have been working with and studying with Latinos for years and refer to this dictionary often. I have introduced my Latino friends to new English and Spanish words innumerable times using this App. ### 5/5 — Clipper *2013-06-06, version 8.1* Does everything as stated. Pronunciation is Castilian Spanish, not Mexican. ### 4/5 — Great App *2013-05-26, version 8.0* Easy to use ### 2/5 — Really? *2013-05-09, version 8.0* Gosh, I think this app is TERRIBLE!! It appears to be developed by people who are non-native English speakers. It's full of really bizarre words and phrases. For example: a gewgaws. I don't know what that is in English, why would I want to know it in Spanish?? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t pay for it! *2022-09-27* It is exactly the same as free, but pronunciation doesn’t work. Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work yet *2015-09-12, version 13.1* Wish the pronunciation would work. That's the main function that we need. ### 1/5 — Spanish Dictionary Pro *2012-11-01, version 7.1* Not all daily words are in the dictionary. Difficult to go from daily word to look it up in the dictionary. Audio is good. ### 1/5 — Can't figure this out! Help!!! *2012-05-21* I've read quite a few decent reviews on this app. However I paid the $3 and it won't even recognize basic words. For example I typed "above" and all that comes up is "above ground level". I give this 1 star for now unless I can figure out what is wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Don't waste your $ on this CrAPP until then! ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2012-05-08, version 6.5* It doesn't speak the Spanish words so you can hear how to pronounce them properly. And it's difficult to switch from English to Spanish. I'm sorry I spent the money, should have stayed with the free version. ### 1/5 — Pronunciation NOT WORKING! *2011-11-23* I bought this app few days ago; one of the main drivers to purchase it was the english pronunciation through a speaker icon next to the words, sadly, this is not working. I have to say that the app support was almost instant, however, as a customer, I can not take as a response to my issue something like "here is working fine"; After several emails the final comment was appear to be related to the fact that I am using iOS 5.0.1; the last message was that somebody in the app staff will upgrade some test iPad to the same iOS level and check how is working. However, several days has passed and I haven't had any final solution or comment. Is it working? is it related to 5.0.1? I will expect a serious follow up on this. The other features works fine, but this is how a non-attended issue report could change totally my opinion on the software. I would like to have my money back, however, I was told by the app support that this is not possible so… I do not really know what to do. I will contact apple and do a official complain about this. Best Regards. Since there is no warning preventing the clients to buy this app if yo ### 1/5 — POS!!!! *2011-10-17, version 6.0* This app is a waste of $ it is nothing like the demo and when typing in a Spanish word it is never found. Very disappointed ### 1/5 — Waste *2011-09-23, version 3.2* I can't believe this thing won't let you go from Spanish to English! What a waste of money. I got this app so I could translate either from Spanish to English and vise versa. This does me no good since. Not worth it. ### 1/5 — dinero down the drain *2011-04-19, version 3.1* I wanted a dictionary and got a word substitute . Not pleased . Deleted after my silly purchase. ### 1/5 — Not a Dictionary! *2011-03-22* This application is not a dictionary as it says it is. It is a Spanish/English dictionary. In other words, it gives you the word in Spanish and below the meaning of the word in English. It is definitly misnamed and by consequence, missleading! a Dictionary will give you the meaning of the word and NOT the equivalent in another language. I am deleting from my iTouch because it is not a Spanish Dictionary, Again, it is not a dictionary. I just waisted $2.99 for nothing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2017-10-10* I love this app it helps me in Spanish class cause I'm in a bilingual class so I really need this app!!!💖 Love it sooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Dictionary *2017-06-21* I just love it and use it every day it is a big help for me learning several new words every day. Thank you.😍😍😍😍 ### 5/5 — Very useful! *2016-12-11, version 17.0* This App does everything I want. Just today I was curious about the difference between Que pasa and Que paso. I understood the difference in just moments. ### 5/5 — Review *2016-07-25, version 16.0* Excellent reference Dictionary. ### 5/5 — Great app *2015-10-29* This a great app. It is the most user friendly dictionary that I have used to help me expand my vocabulary as I read in Spanish so I can look up words that I don't remember plus hear the correct pronunciation. Well worth the money. ### 5/5 — The Best That Exists - El Mejor Que Existe *2015-07-08* Yo estaba en unas clases españoles. Ahora, desde las pasé, quiero mantener tan mucho de la información como puedo. Uso esta aplicación durante cualquier momento en cual olvido una palabra o frase. No hay ningún de esos momentos cuando esta aplicación no me ayuda. Me encanta, me encanta; ¡me encanta! I used to be in some Spanish classes. Now, since I passed them, I want to maintain as much of the information as I can. I use this application during any moment in which I forget a word or phrase. There are none of those moments when this application doesn't help me. I love it, I love it; I love it! ### 5/5 — RonAgCon *2015-04-22* This is a handy iPhone Spanish dictionary. I use it a lot in my learning and speaking of the Spanish language. I am semi-fluent Spanish speaker who needs to build his vocabulary. This app is a good aid in that pursuit. I especially like the bookmark future; it helps me remember what I forget. ### 5/5 — A great app!!! *2015-04-20, version 11.4* This is clearly one of the best language apps I've ever used, likely THE best. Extremely user friendly and complete. ### 5/5 — Wonderfully done! *2015-02-08* This app is extremely helpful in every way. It not only defines a word but gets very deep to the heart of the word, even pictures. Love it! ### 5/5 — I really like it *2014-01-31, version 9.5.2* Was not sure when I first got it but it has proved a very useful tool. Best thing is you do not have to be online to look a word up, translation also works extremely well. Lastly although it used to annoy me ( you can turn it off ) I really like the word of the day feature. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
