However the verb conjugation section is flawed. The Spanish conjugation is paired with French pronouns. Not helpful if you are trying to learn the Spanish pronouns. ### 3/5 — Improvements needed *2019-03-25* The names of the tenses are in French?! This is a Spanish-English dictionary! Also the app support link is broken. Also, the vocabulary could be much larger, not just the basic words. And I’m hispanic. Thanks. ### 2/5 — OK, but much room for improvement *2018-09-23, version 2.2* It’s not as good as the English-French Larousse dictionary. Much fewer examples and demonstrations of idiomatic phrases for each word etc. Also there are some major presentation issues, the most baffling being the use of the French subject pronouns in the verb conjugation section. I emailed them about it ages ago, but haven’t heard back and it’s not yet been fixed. Probably still reasonable value for £3.99 though. ### 2/5 — Bad Update *2018-09-16, version 2.2* This dictionary already had a few issues. Clicking on some words would close the app. However since the update, it is even worse. The conjugation actually has French pronouns and not Spanish ones! Unforgivable really for an app from a company which is supposed to have a good reputation. ### 3/5 — Buena *2018-03-23, version 2.0* La aplicación es buena y finalmente la actualizaron después de varios años. El único inconveniente es que ahora no funciona en mi iphone5. ### 3/5 — Help *2017-09-21, version 1.2* I need a version IOS 11 compatible please. I already paid for this application and I use it several times in a day. Thanks in advance ### 2/5 — The pronunciation doesn't work in this app *2017-06-30, version 1.2* The pronunciation doesn't work at all and it is a shame because this problem must be fix as part of the service of the company. Hopefully anybody can help us ### 1/5 — Pésima *2017-01-17, version 1.2* Tengo meses con la aplicación y las conjugaciones no sirven. ### 2/5 — Useless *2016-11-27, version 1.2* Very disappointing. Poor functionality. Crashes frequently. And the recorded pronunciation doesn't work both on my iPad and my iPhone... ### 1/5 — Mise à jour *2016-10-23, version 1.2* Besoin URGENT de mise à jour ! Pas de mise à jour depuis 2010. Cela met complément en question la qualité des "Éditions Larousse" ! ### 2/5 — Still lacking *2016-09-12, version 1.2* Not anywhere as good as Larousse French dictionary. It has not gotten it's necessary bug fixes. Trying to use the audio locks the app. ### 1/5 — Terrible, Buggy Waste of Money *2016-09-08* This app crashes on every search. It does not appear to be self contained so it must have a internet connection. When you search for a verb it gives you a definition of the verb in the language you searched, not the word in the translation language. So to get a translated conjugation, you must search twice. This app is an embarrassment. Don't bother. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2016-06-20, version 1.2* Very disappointed. I have the Larousse French-English app which is excellent. This one pales in comparison. It lacks vocabulary and has no pronunciation ### 1/5 — Really Larousse ? *2016-04-21, version 1.2* I need my money back, if they not upload your app. ### 1/5 — Actualizar *2015-11-23, version 1.2* ¡Necesita actualización urgente! Interfaz muy mala. ### 2/5 — ACTUALIZACIÓN URGENTE *2015-08-07, version 1.2* Es muy buena herramienta, pero la aplicación no ha sido actualizada en 5 años; es justo con los que la hemos pagado que la actualicen!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pésimo *2019-10-22, version 2.2* Its a waste of monet. Pérdida de dinero. Definiciones incompletas y básicas. Sin sinónimos. Muy malo. Desconozco porque Larousse apoya esta appli tan mediocre. No tires 5 euros a la basura. Noviembre 2019. ### 1/5 — Pretty awful *2019-10-07, version 2.2* I’m surprised by the poor quality of this product because Larousse is a reputable publisher of dictionaries, at least in French. This is not a free product and yet I can’t find some pretty basic words such as baker, plumber and glue. Looking for something better. ### 1/5 — Atrocious update of what was once the BEST SP-EN dictionary *2018-05-02, version 2.0* This application used to be the BEST offline Spanish-English dictionary on the App Store (just like the equivalent Larousse French-English app). After its long-awaited update, it has lost almost all its best features. Even though the app wasn’t updated for several years, in its old form, it included SO much content: all verb conjugations linked to each verb entry, so many context examples and idiomatic phrases, audio pronunciation, the ability to click any word on the page and be taken to the dictionary entry for that word, a button to change the translation direction right on the search page (so basic!), and it was excellently formatted and designed—even considering its incorrect screen size and resolution because of the lack of update (and a couple of bugs). Almost all content has disappeared after the update!!! Where and why on earth has this all been lost with the update?! Very disappointed. Please, developers, bring back the old bugged version!! Muy delusionada! ### 1/5 — 起動しなくなった *2018-02-14, version 2.0* アップしたら起動しなくなった。 IPhone5です。早く直してくれ ### 1/5 — Terrible especially compared to Larousse's French dictionary *2018-02-14* As many have said, Larousse's French dictionary is spectacular and this one must be the version that was stuck in hospital with no oxygen and now suffers from severe brain damage. Please don't buy it. How could this company make such similar apps with such disparate levels of performance? ### 1/5 — This app was good... *2018-01-09, version 2.0* I used to love this app, but the new version is awful in comparison! I really appreciated being able to see all the conjugations of a verb. It is something I often forget. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2018-01-08, version 2.0* Thanks for taking out the conjugation functionality and making the app far less navigable. This app is garbage. Don’t buy it. ### 1/5 — Actualización iOS 11 audio y conjugaciones *2018-01-03, version 2.0* ¿Dónde quedó el audio y conjugaciones con la nueva versión para iOS11? Cada vez está peor esta app. ### 1/5 — Not opening *2018-01-03, version 2.0* New version shows only the home page & then crashes. Please mend. ### 1/5 — Update *2017-09-22, version 1.2* What’s with the new iOS? Aren’t u going to update? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Now for iPad, and much better!!! *2018-09-30* This version of the poorly designed iPhone app is so much better, and best of all doesn’t crash upon looking up certain entries (it shows a blank entry instead). Perfect for all Spanish speakers of all levels! Definitely would recommend to anyone who wants to learn the language! 😀😀😀 ### 5/5 — Best Spanish Dictionary App *2018-06-27* This is an updated version of the one I’d originally purchased; formatted just like the English to French and German counterparts. Some months ago that one was updated (or rather DOWNGRADED) to a poorly conceived scheme not nearly as functional and intuitive. Relieved to have the original format reinstated. ### 5/5 — Sugerencias *2018-01-06, version 2.0* La aplicación en mi iPhone 5 no abre la reinstale ni así por favor arreglen ese problema según es compatible con ios9. ### 5/5 — Desfasada *2017-03-16, version 1.2* Fue una buena app. Lástima que la hayan dejado morir ### 5/5 — Surpassed expectations *2013-03-26* I have found it easy to use and fast. I recommend it to my friends. Recommended by my teacher. Not sure about the other reviews. ### 5/5 — no duden en comprarla!!! *2012-09-11, version 1.2* excelente y lo mejor es que si funciona sin internet. ### 5/5 — Review *2012-09-09, version 1.2* Being very new to Spanish and in Spain I need an easy reference dictionary in my pocket, to aid me when shopping and in the restaurant etc. This app is ideal for this and should be taken on its own merits. There are not many words that I have had to look up that wasn't on this app and it was a lifesaver. ### 5/5 — Es muy útil! *2012-06-14, version 1.2* Jajaja pues yo no se por qué tanto quejumbrón (como el "señor bilingüe" de acá abajo) a mi me ha servido mucho, encuentras hasta las palabras menos comunes y es rara la vez que me falla! ### 5/5 — EXCELENTE *2012-04-19, version 1.2* Aunque visualmente es sencilla, como diccionario español-inglés y viceversa es estupenda y funciona realmente bien. Muy recomendable. ### 5/5 — Best App to Learn Spanish *2011-07-18, version 1.2* I downloaded 10-15 apps (free and paid) to help me learn Spanish and none of the others even compare to this one! Every time I encounter a new word, I look it up and have great sentence examples and verb conjugations at my fingertips. Thank you Larousse! Only thing I'd add is a setting to change the default start-up language from English to Spanish. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
