Delightful app and great dev response

Bioanthro

I have three Vidalingua apps and I love them all. I don't speak French, but I come across enough French words and phrases that I wanted a dictionary that would allow me to get around in those texts. Bonus points if I could find a dictionary that would pronounce the words for me so I could hear the words in my head in future. This one does the trick --and more. I can attach photos to dictionary entries, as well as audio clips and notes. I love the fact that both languages appear together -- no need to swap languages to enter a word in one or the other languages. I also love the ability to choose the version of audio pronunciation the user wants: Australian, UK, or US. Nifty! Finally, the developer responded promptly and helpfully to my request for information on the app's privacy policy. I like the privacy policy (and wish developers would include those in description of app. But until they do, it's nice to find a responsive developer with a policy that's protective of the users' privacy.) In sum: great app that's easy to use and that has lovely features that are unexpected in an app - especially at this price.

Terrible app

Piettey

This app is terrible. Got it to help my daughter in beginner French class and found it lacking in words, verb usage. Try inputting coiffer and you will find nothing helpful. Do not by this app!!

Perfect, Online or Offline

Dave AK

The best language dictionary I've ever used. Seldom a word not listed, sample sentences, verb conjugations, and multiple definitions for words to best determine the context you're trying to find. You can even find verbs by entering their conjugated forms. And it works offline, of course. Simply terrific.

Very useful tool...my go to app

This is a very well designed language app and for almost all my questions addresses my knowledge deficit more directly and moe broadly than others.

Good for a dictionary ????

Alyssaanneeee

I love this app; it has an extensive amount of vocabulary even without the upgrade. It offers great features like conjugation, pronunciation, and examples. It comes with common phrases as well which is awesome. HOWEVER there are some features that should be improved; you can't save or group any words to study for later, and the quiz feature is awful. It pulls random words that you can't select so there's no way to really prepare. Overall this app is a great replacement for a dictionary but has the potential to be an even greater app if improved

A good tool, mob Cher

Revrupp

This French dictionary is a very useful tool for the person who took high school French sometime in the Middle Ages. I use it in reading English texts that include French quotations or words without translation, and for the sheer interest of observing language differences. Well done, mon frere ou soeur.

Fix pronunciation issue

Anon EEE Mous

It's been almost a year since they lost the ability to use the feature "use better quality online voice when available" since they were not paying for the services online such as Google translate to be able to produce better quality voice for the app while they made money off such features since a lot of people, including no myself bought the app and it's extra features for this sole reason. I was told they were working on this issue proactively to figure the issue out. They were rude to me about the whole issue. Customer service is not as good as others say. I imagine a lot of reviews on here are fakes. There are apps there that are just as good as this if not better and actually have good customer service and are not rude to paying customers. I deleted this app I paid for because I did not want to support such rude app owners and since there are better apps available. I came back to download the app to see if if they ever fixed the better voice issue since I figured a year would be ample time to figure the issue since they said they were actively working on the issue and all they really needed to do was find a service like google translate and get a contract together that specified how much they needed to pay to use the service (since they already have the code to be able to pull better quality voice from Internet services like Google translate) so they could provide app users with better quality voice. Don't ask them about this issue or you will get a rude response.

Needs work

Bois d'Avril

Had the dictionary for a couple of months and not a single word that I have needed a translation for is in it. Basically, it only has common words, which makes it useless to me. The Farlex dictionary throws in a far better French dictionary for free !

This app has proven indispensable in my studies. I bought the Pro version and am glad I did! Gone are the clunky dictionary days!

Love it

Gjacks

Love this app. I'm borderline fluent almost conversatonal and used it while travelling in West Africa.
