Great

If the ultralinga Collins pro French-english was out when I bought this I would of gone with that, this goes along well with the straight French version as it also has a thesaurus and a lot better definitions than a translation dictionary.

Disappointed with all the major glitches

Purchased this thinking it would be a good companion, and it is.

But it does have some major glitches (Bugs) that should not be there for the $24 price tag. These occur on both the iphone and itouch.

i.e.
Importantly. If you search for a word in the French dictionary that is incorrectly spelt or not in the database, it brings up a "No entries found” screen, and also Suggests some other possibilities of the correct word on the same screen.

However the links to these other 'Suggested' words are always broken. When you press on the link of the Suggested word you get another 'No entries found' screen but without the suggestions.

This is very frustrating when you are unsure of the spelling of the word.

There is also no way to enter accents on the keyboard, which can be crucial with the French language. In fact can be the main reason why you get a "No entries found screen” in the first place.

In addition, It often crashes when entering certain words. ie. 'Faire' for instance

This could be a great tool if the developers release an update ASAP fixing these crucial bugs.

Good, and very useful, but could be much better still

Being able to carry around a French-English dictionary in your iPhone is fantastic - throw away your heavy paper version. However, it's also frustrating to see so little use of the electronic format. They should add some sound (common words pronounced), have better one-touch links between entries, add in a phrase book. This application could be the gold standard. At the moment there is plenty of opportunity for a competitor to leap-frog over ultralingual's app.
