The dictionary is quite large. The at-a-glance conjugation tables are fantastic. And when I was learning numbers, the quick number pad was a brilliant help." -User review "Buy it, it's the best - You get what you pay for in the AppStore.

Prior to getting this tool I was frustrated to tears by the poor quality of the other tools." -User review "This is an outstanding app, it has a deep database and you will leave your dictionary, phrase book and verb conjugation book at home when going to class or traveling (no need for an Internet connection either).

Apps are not the be all to end all. As an Italian can I tell you most translations or works from books are from non Italian background people. That is they Learnt italian Themselves. Too many times I see misspelled words. The other thing to think of some authors also use random dialect words because that is what they were taught. On a positive note you are right there bare many methods now on the internet to find the answer for free. But what if you don’t have access to the web?

Excellent in every way, with words, ability to hear every word pronounced, extensive descriptions of words and their meanings and uses, verb conjugations with translation. Also, unexpectedly, the ability to search the web for transactions of words not listed in the dictionary. Excellent value for money.

Can't fault this App. I have the paper version which at 3kg is a little inconvenient to carry around with me. The wonderful thing about this dictionary is it gives you lots of different examples of word usage including whole sentences and phrases. The e-version has wonderful features like touching any word and it will translate it, conjugate it if it's a verb or do a Google search on it. It has a history of the recent words and a back button to go to recent searches. Would be good if you could delete individual history items but maybe that will come. $60 for the paper version was worth every penny, now $30 for this App is too.

Lack of important information at such a price

After a term of Italian study I was doing a bit review. The text book is 'Chiaro'. On the title page of the 2nd chapter something annoyed me. What it was is that I could not figure out the exact meaning of the word 'parlane' as in 'Parlane con un compagno'. I would imagine it got something to do with 'parlare' but in what way? I could not find it in other free dictionaries nor on Google so I thought I should get a better reference book. I bought this one and found myself screwed. Collins does not have the information I wanted either. I searched on Google again for like 30 minutes and after so many wrong directions and finally found my answer. Turns out parlane= ne parla =(you) talk about it. The meaning of that sentence is talk about it with a classmate.Yes may be I am too fussy but the point is , the whole idea to spend 30 something dollars on this is i want something better than the free ones. I want the answers ready for me. I don't want to go to google every time. As a beginner i found that with my limited Italian it's very hard for me to get the information I wanted. But turns out this dictionary isn't much(or any) better than the free dictionaries out there. So anyone who is reading this, don't throw your money down the drain like me. Just get a free dictionary. If it is not enough, most likely Collins can't help you either. Just go to google.
