### 4/5 — Very helpful

*2025-03-10, version 8.3.14*

It's a good app. I love the flash card function with saved words. Much better than remembering random words. It will be awesome if you could please add syncing feature between iOS devices.

### 3/5 — Needs to hide conjugations

*2023-08-01, version 8.3.14*

Two big problems in using:

It includes every conjugation in the word list, so it’s impossible to find the noun that you almost recall (except for the ending), but it’s lost among four dozen of the same verb.

There’s not an easy way to clear the dictionary search field, so you have to do a cumbersome process of going back to the search screen, and then click on a tiny X hidden next to a much bigger icon button

### 5/5 — Wonderful Tool

*2023-07-27, version 8.3.14*

When I travel in Spanish speaking countries or read websites in Spanish, this app is my constant companion. It rarely lacks a word I need. I like the popular phrases section, which is well-organized. Everything I need and no distracting trivialities or fluff.  Recommend highly!

### 5/5 — David

*2023-06-22, version 8.3.14*

I have used this when I am stuck and it is a useful aid. The adds are a bit in your face but it is free.

### 5/5 — Very Useful Spanish/English Dictionary for the Desktop

*2023-05-08, version 8.3.14*

*2022-12-28, version 8.3.14*

Best app for looking up words and conjugation of verbs and the pronunciation component is such a bonus!

### 5/5 — Very helpful and easy to use

*2022-11-12, version 8.3.14*

### 5/5 — Great resource for Spanish learners at all levels

*2022-09-01*

This is a great app which I’ve had for a number of years as I’ve been learning Spanish. It has been a very easy to use dictionary from the the beginning of my language learning until now as a more advanced student. It’s particularly good as a reference for verbs and way more helpful than a standard dictionary. You can look up different conjugations of verbs as they appear in text, and find out the infinitive (or base verb) then find out all of the conjugations of that verb by pressing a button. The support from Vida Lingua, the app developers is excellent. I was having difficulties with intrusive ads and they responded promptly to assist me to resolve the issue. Highly recommended

**Developer response:** Hi Jeneane,
Thank you for your support for years!
Glad to hear you find our app more helpful than a standard dictionary. It was our pleasure to assist you. I appreciate you taking the time to write such a detailed review.

### 5/5 — Vocab liferaft

*2022-07-29*

Part of the language learning experience - vocab, verb conjugation and spelling

**Developer response:** Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to review our app. I appreciate your kind words.
Angelica, Customer Success

### 5/5 — The best learning assistant

*2022-07-14, version 8.3.14*

The past couple of years I have bought and tried different books and apps …. I recently found this app and what a leap forward this ‘tool’ is proving to be. Brilliant when using with a iPad split screen.

### 5/5 — Super useful app!

*2022-06-22, version 8.3.14*

I paid for the Italian version when I was learning Italian and used it while we traveled in Italy. So useful.  Now I’m using the Spanish version and I really appreciate the ease of use. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Complete and easy to use

*2022-06-21, version 8.3.14*

I’ve tried several dictionary apps, and this is the best so far. It’s intuitive and has words, phrases, and even verb conjugations. Thanks, developers!

### 5/5 — Great App, better Customer service!

*2022-04-13, version 8.3.14*

I purchased the translate app from this company 12 years ago and have been very happy with utility and effectiveness of the app.

When I had a issue with getting adds based on their new subscription model for that app, I emailed their customer service and they were able to promptly help me and issue a great solution to my issues. I was very happy to get in touch with a human and not be routed through the maze of answering machines and automated phone systems that plague customer service lines today! I definitely recommend this app to anyone who is interested in Spanish at all!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No price listed for app…..

*2024-10-17, version 8.3.14*

…but this morning, I find a charge on my card. Dishonest…do not load app. $9.99 is a hefty charge..There was no subscription!!!!!! Nowhere was a charge even suggested!!!  Supposed to be free! I did not order ANY in-app items , but was still charged $9.99!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-06-04, version 8.3.14*

I can't even study saved vocabulary by using the flash cards. All of the flash cards are just random and there's no option to study what you want to focus on and for $9.99 I would expect that to be an option. Especially when there are other apps for a lower price that can do way more than this application. Pretty disappointed with the app at first, then they decided to remove features you previously paid for and expect you to pay again. Would not recommend this app to anyone.

### 1/5 — Ads ruin the app

*2021-01-27, version 8.1.29*

The dictionary is alright but the pop up ads are a real nuisance. Some of them will not disappear and interrupt the use.

### 1/5 — Can’t restore in app premium purchase

*2020-02-01, version 7.2.9*

Can’t restore in app premium purchase

### 1/5 — Terrible upgrade

*2018-03-31, version 7.1(32)*

I use this all the time but the most recent update has downgraded my paid for version to the free version which is much more limited and now shows ads. Where has the previous version gone and why am I being stung for £9.99 to reinstall the version I had before?

### 1/5 — Update and Premium Access

*2018-03-21, version 7.1(32)*

I am writing with both confusion and frustration that after I updated the Spanish Dict + VL app to version 7.1, it now requires me purchase Premium Access for ￡9.9 once again, and I cannot restore my purchase. I purchased the app for ￡9.9 and now this update downgraded my access, shows me adverts and requires me to spend ￡9.9 more in-app again. What is this indecent business about? Please explain otherwise I'll have to report it.

### 1/5 — Paid $14.99 for ads?

*2018-03-14, version 7.1(32)*

We love this app, but the latest update has started displaying ads. We specifically bought the paid version to avoid ads. Have now uninstalled all our Ascendo apps.

### 1/5 — Now I'm upset

*2015-12-27, version 6.2.71*

Had the unpaid version and everything was fine. Now I bought the paid version and I don't have any pronouncing anymore. Upsetting

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2014-09-03, version 6.2.71*

This dictionary uses only American English. Ignore the UK flag, you will not be able to look up any English words with specifically British spellings, or any vocabulary specific to the UK. It shows distinctly North American words and spelling and puts them next to a British flag - really confusing for any Spaniard using it to learn BrE. It should have made it clear that this is an American English dictionary as a dictionary that does not recognise words like "colour" is completely useless to me and I would not have paid for it.

### 1/5 — Not for iPod Touch

*2012-02-15, version 5.1.5*

The "Requirements" are in error. I have an iPod Touch running iOS 3.1.3 and neither the free version or the paid version will run on it. I've rated it 1 star for that reason only.

### 5/5 — Spanish dictionary

*2026-08-11, version 9.1.22*

My goto reference for Spanish. Fast, easy to use and it’s offline so I use it a lot when I’m travelling.

Very handy. Also I like the paid for version that removes the adverts.

*2025-02-17, version 8.3.14*

Gracias.

### 5/5 — Spanish Dictionary

*2024-09-02, version 8.3.14*

I have found the Vidalingua Spanish dictionary invaluable over the years. It’s a great supplement to Duolingo and so well used when I am in Spain. It has an amazing store of words, I can could on one hand times when I have never been able to find a word either in Spanish or English. And I love when it tells when the word I am looking up is Latin American.
It’s also really quick to use when you don’t have to select which language the word is in. It just knows.

### 5/5 — I think I ‘ve found a good Spanish dictionary

*2024-08-10*

easy-to-use, reliable dictionary 👍

**Developer response:** Hi Teacher Lee,
