App has its challenges on iphone

I now have this on both my iPad and iPhone. As another reviewer noted 6 years ago, it is sometimes difficult to move from verbs back to the main dictionary. Frustrating - and it doesn’t seem to be very smart. I installed this new app recently because the one I purchased in 2013 froze on my new iPhone. It was simpler just to buy the newer version and with that, I lost all my history for the last ten years, on my iPhone at least.

Essential app

Brilliant app if you are studying German. Conjugates verbs, provides example sentences and if you are studying overseas you don't need to be connected to the Internet to look up words.

Very useful app

In general I have found this an extremely useful app. My only reservation is that in the smartphone version it is now more difficult to move from verbs back to the main dictionary. Sonst sehr gut, besonders Redewendungen, die immer sehr schwierig sind.

Great dictionary

This dictionary is easy to use and puts words in context so that you can find the best translation. It also shows verb conjugations in a variety of tenses. It is faster than using a paper dictionary and much lighter!

Great dictionary and app

I have always been a fan of the Collins German-English dictionary, and this app enables me to take it with me wherever I go. Overall the app is simple to use, quick to search and presents the entries nicely. My only quibble is that it would be great to have a link directly from a verb/noun listings to their conjugations. For example, "zurücksehen" is marked as irregular but you have to know to look up "sehen" to find the irregular forms.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

All in all, this is a very good dictionary, with useful translations and sample sentences. But all this is for nothing if the app doesn't launch. At the moment, it requires regular reinstall action, in order to operate. Very disappointing. (running on iPhone 4)

Love the new update

After using this app for many years, I'm loving the new changes to the UI. The search function is super intuitive - none of the hassle of switching languages or between definition/conjugation tabs all the time because all the information is just there in front if you. Great!

Collins Pro German English Dictionary

Avoid until there is a bug fix- the latest version refuses to open. Unbelievable that the developers could release an update that renders the app useless. When they fix this then yes my earlier review below will stand: Indispensable ! Don't waste your time with any $4 wordlist! This is a real dictionary and worth the extra. Why? Because a wordlist dictionary won't help you- what you need is a dictionary that shows you how to use the words in actual language applications. This does that. And it's lighter and much quicker than a large Collins Dictionary but has virtually identical definitions and examples (some omissions but they hardly matter). If you are learning German or revising as I am, do yourself a favour and buy this!

Broken

This new version is broken on my iPhone. Put the old one back

New Version A Disaster

Since upgrading to the new version of this app I've been very unhappy. It's slow if it starts up at all and I bought the previous version in French, Spanish and German because the interface was beautiful and user friendly and the vocabulary broad. I feel I have been robbed of my net 60 dollars since the upgrade was made. It doesn't even start up on my iphone 4.
