Great apps

Best app ever. This is ad free which is a big plus. Comparable to hippodict which is ten dollars. Would happily pay five more dollars for pronounciation. Should add the online browsing too though. Btw, love love the flashcards
one big flaw
TNTz9
This Chinese dictionary, regardless of the rave reviews, has one major flaw, and it is a flaw of almost all Chinese dictionary apps--it's based on CE-CEDICT dictionary, and that underlying dictionary displays the old characters for many characters that have been simplified. Doesn't matter that you have set options on iPhone, or even for the specific app, to the official simplified character set of mainland China. Many of the old characters are displayed. It's very unfortunate that so many Chinese dictionaries take the cheap route and just use this CE-CEDICT.
I used it multiple times in china

Great app. Writing is perfect. Pinyin is easy. Dictionary is extensive. Now I use it for Chinese classes.
Awesome!

This works great and is the best I can find. Only problem is it prefers traditional over simplified.
Saved me many times! Better than Lonely Planet

Dian Hua s ease of use and practicality helped me survive living in China for three years. Very useful for when I forgot characters or pronunciations or simply didn't remember a word. It's not perfect but it's practical, simple and functional!
Best Option for a Chinese-English-Chinese Dictionary

I have tried many of them and this is so far the best one I have come across. I will definitely upgrade to the audio version. The only thing that would make this better is if I could take pictures of text and have those be read for translation.
the best chinese dictionary

For my 3 month trip to China, I download this app instead of buying an expensive mobile translator. It was absolutely fantastic. The dictionary is expansive and has many colloquial words, and you can see/trace the characters. You can also create your own flashcards. For example, I created a flashcard group for each chapter in my Chinese textbook. Everyday on the subway I could study for my test by flipping through the flashcards. This eliminated the need for real flashcards...which would have taken up a ton of space. No internet needed either. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
