5/5Best app ever!
The translation of idioms is wonderful, likewise the addition of pronunciations all along the conjugation screen, the addition of the infinitive, gerund, and past participle forms of the verb on the conjugation screen, the addition of the globe so you can see how the word is used in sentences and phrases, etc. They have even programmed requests that I have made in previous reviews. I love this app! Keep up the good work!! Actually, speaking of user requests, how about the ability to move words up and down the favorites list (so I can keep similar words together, like perché, perciò, quindi).

5/5My “go-to” for quick reference!
I have used this Italian/English dictionary app for many years and it has helped me on nearly every occasion for ordinary conversational language used in text messages, etc. When we traveled in Italy, it was likewise helpful for unusual and unfamiliar vocabulary not used in everyday situations. It is very user-friendly, and I like that it gives not only definitions and gender, etc., but also lists examples of common usage or alternative choices for words that may be used in different contexts. I highly recommend this app!

5/5Literally the best Italian-English dictionary available
Literally the best Italian- English dictionary available. Been using it for over ten years. Paid 10 euro for it on my first phone and it transferred over to my new one without a problem. Type in either language and it translates instantly. No switching needed. And it’s fast, and offline. No internet needed. Pronunciation everywhere on the app. Just tap a word or phrase. There are dozens of features that I’ve never even used. Love it. Thank you for developing and maintaining this app.

4/5My Most Indispensable App
This fantastic app does it all— dictionary, translation and complete verb conjugations, plus great tools for study and review. It even includes colloquialisms and informalities used in everyday conversation by Italians, so it is a valuable real-world reference, as well as an academic one. I love that this app is not internet connection-dependent, so I can use it anywhere, including when I travel in Italy. This is a must-have!

4/5Needed
This app is good for vocabulary and verbs, but it needs more explanations of how the grammar works. It does have very good vocab and mistake reviews once you find out where they live on the app. Users definitely need a dictionary, an internet connection to research grammar, and also a conversation app. I use it in combination with Pimsleur which has very good explanations and forces you to converse. There is no rhyme or reason to vocabulary choices. Why do I need the word for a whale before I know how to ask for directions, a street, a bathroom? Sequencing and more than the basic grammatical information need improvement. Beware of the challenges and competitions. I find that if I let the app pull me into those, I waste time on speeding through the higher point reviews and then stop progressing with the language lessons. So—I am swearing off those!
