"It is a very easy to use, tremendously helpful and valuable addition for learning the language and traveling. I have found it a pleasure to use and it has exceeded my expectations in every way and has not yet let me down in any way. A terrific app."

"I bought this dictionary in August 2010, and six months later in February 2011 I still use this Ultralingua dictionary daily. I am majoring in French and I find this dictionary very accurate and helpful. $19.99 may seem more than other French dictionaries out there, but this one is great because it doesn't require an Internet connection and it provides thousands of words. I highly recommend this dictionary."

Well worth the money

Yes there are a bunch of free translator apps and online dictionaries, and this one is neither free nor cheap, but it’s worth every penny. It’s very easy to use, and the information provided for every word is comprehensive, usually with sentences provided to show how the word works. This is especially useful for figures of speech or word usages that don’t directly translate. For example, you may “practice” piano in English but you “work” piano in French. The listing for practice explains that sort of thing. It also has complete conjugation tables for every verb, which are provided directly after the definition(s). I love this app!

The best French dictionary app you could buy!

This is honestly the best French-English dictionary app you could buy! Worth every penny and then some. An excellent, very well thought out user interface makes using this app easy and facilitates learning. Tap on any word to go to it’s definition. Tap and hold on any word to speak it’s pronunciation. Tap on any verb to go to it’s conjugation. Multiple usage examples. Easy to use verb conjugation tables. I highly recommend this app.

Racine on a hand-held

This is a competent, professional attempt to put a highly sophisticated language into the palm of your hand. Collins is a very good company, and is much helped here by the small vocabulary of French (compared to the unwieldy empire of English).
Of course it’s not enough. Secondary meanings are skimped, old forms are not much given, rare words become rarer here.
This app will do much more than let you say “Ung cafe seel voo play.” It will certainly let you talk to persons other than Mademoiselle D’Armentieres. It is fine for office and ordinary letters.
If you want to read Racine, the Medieval romances and Bossuet you need a big paper dictionary. Oxford or Larousse, probably
