FREE Spanish Dictionary - iCaramba Spanish Course

Instead of cramming every Spanish word there is into this dictionary, it focuses on the 500(*) words you're most likely to use and adds audio to every one of them. It is thus an excellent travel-companion.
(*) For each Lesson in the iCaramba Spanish Course that is released we will also update the dictionary with additional words.
FEATURES:
- ALL words have audio!
- Alphabetically sorted by English and Spanish.
- Very user-friendly navigation.
LIMITATION:
The LITE-version only sorts the words alphabetically in Spanish to English.
Reviews
One small suggestion...
NimNod
I really like this app and COULD have found it very useful, but since it limits you to sorting only Spanish words alphabetically, it really does me (or anyone else, I'm guessing) no good. See, I live close to Mexico, so this app would be very helpful to me (I speak at about a 40%-50% proficiency level). I think most people that would use this are going to want to translate from English (since we think in English) to Spanish. So if you have to scroll through the entire dictionary to find the English word you want to translate (perhaps only to find that it's not even included) then it'll get old really fast. That may also be why there are a high number of one and two star ratings. People find that it's too much trouble to find the word that they want and decide to delete the app, giving it a one or two star rating in the process. If most or many people are like me, they probably base app choice on app ratings. Also, if people find the app useful, then they'll want to buy the Standard version for the larger vocabulary. I truly would like to like this app, but this minor limitation puts me off, yet even with that, I gave it 3 stars.
Pros & Cons

NimNod: Why would you scroll through down the entire page when you have the buttons at the top to do that for you? Pros: + Easy to find the words (great buttons at the top to do that for you). + That you can listen to all the words. + Like the look of it, especially the cartoonish guy :) Cons: - Not as many words as I would have liked. - You cant sort in English. Ok, this is the LITE-version, so I guess the last con isnt really fair since the full version enables you to sort in English too. In sum I give it 4 stars mainly because I want more words.
What?

This app is horrible!! It has NONE of the words I have tried to look up! And the sound doesn't work. Maybe it's just my phone, I don't know. But seriously! I thought it said it had all Spanish words?!

Not very many words..

This app is pretty cool but there aren't a lot of words. All the words that I tried to look up weren't there. I thought that there would be more.. But hey, it's free! And the buttons at the top are convient. And it's cool that it has audio. But I dot think I'm going to keep it...
Teaser app virtually useless without the paid-for version

Nearly impossible to use without triggering a "buy the full version" button or link. And the paid-for version is disappointing. The sound is poor and the selection of words is unhelpful.
USELESS!!!

Terrible navigation, extremely limited usage. Not even worth free. One star because that is required, bit should be negative stars!!
