Useless – Portuguese Translator + Review

As someone who's learning Portuguese and needs to check a dictionary 10+ times a day, this app just doesn't cut it for me, both because of its relatively small selection and some obnoxious GUI features. The search function is clunky and difficult to navigate, and the layout of the definition page combined with the sparse definitions makes it difficult to find the translation you want. You also can't search for multi-word phrases, like "do the dishes" -- you have to search for the head word (do) and scroll through a list of phrases containing that word to find the one you want, which often isn't there. I searched for "put away" and got "sacrificar" which apparently means "sacrifice/slaughter an animal". Seriously? In what universe is that a correct translation, and why would it know that but not something basic like "put away"? Even if it just had more everyday vocabulary I would suffer through it, because the competition isn't much better either. But as it is it's basically useless.
