Trusty tool for years
leapingheart
Use it all the time as I read French newspapers or listen to France Info. The UI has improved over the years and is rather attractive. One quibble is that the app icon looks dated and could be improved upon. (Would be easier to find in my apps if it were more distinctive). The language coverage is quite good in French although it lacks certain slang words. I like the favorites feature too.
Stalling

Sluggish response and frequent stalling. App is slow to open: a page appears but is unresponsive for up to 30 secs. Identifying Favorites also disables the screen for several seconds—a real inconvenience. The Spanish-English dictionary does not display these problems. Otherwise, the app is a very useful reference.
Stalling solved

Stalling problems noted in previous review have all been resolved in latest update. App works fast and flawlessly. Well done!
Learning French

I like this app because of the examples for conjugations. However, I purchased this app because I thought that there were sentence examples. I am still learning how to use this app. Perhaps, I haven't figured out how to find the examples for sentences.
Indespensible

I've used this app to help me in reading French novels for years and think its scope and layout are superb.
Wonderful dictionaries!

I have been using the French, Spanish and Italian dictionaries of Ultralingua almost daily for several years. I speak and teach French and Spanish and am learning Italian and absolutely love having these excellent dictionaries at my fingertips on my ever present i-pod!
abandonware
dharmanaut
I really liked the look of these apps when they came out, and I bought the Mac version too because of the hotkey feature to define selected words. But this is abandonware people. They haven't done anything to these in years and there is a bug in the French one that won't change contexts properly when languages are reversed. You've been warned.
