Pros and cons of LEO Wörterbuch app for iPhone and iPad

LEO Wörterbuch app good for

Thanks for making an app out of Leo! I never found a better translation/dictionary website than this one. I wish it could be adapted to other languages though.

It does function really good. From one to other language and back ! I give five stars for this App. It brings always best results. Zed

Great service and now now that the app supports the Ipad its even better.

But... Can you make it turn sideways when the phone is turned?!

Quite Frankly this app is amazing. It works great, translated properly and does a wonderful job. It gives you the right answers when you need them quick. It provides colloquial meaning and will pronounce the words for you. It supples the gender of the German word and everything. It gives you example sentences on how to use the word and other close or similar variations of the word. It also applies other words that contain it. It shows you also idioms in which the word can be used. This is a great app. I suggest you Download it promptly after reading this.

Finally there is an App where you can see an article of the German word. I only miss an iPad version. Very useful App for people who learn German! Thanks!

Some bad moments

...since iOS 9 LEO doesnt recognise SwiftKey. So unfortunately its unusable for me now. Therefore only 2stars.

I used this app for a long time and I was very satisfied. However, currently there is always the same network error and when Im abroad and need a word very quickly, its not accessible. Im ver unhappy about this, now Im deleting this app for a different one. Please work on this issue and increase the reliability.

I downloaded this app but I realised that there is not accessibility. Im visual impaired and on my IPad I use the touch Voiceover, not supported by this app. At the moment, Im studying German and for this problem, now I cant use this dictionary I know, in general, is very useful to students who are learning German. I think its a shame because you are limiting to people with some view problems the possibility to use Leo Dictionary. I hope you will add the support Voiceover as soon as possible. Dankeschön.

thank you so much! im so glad this is finally on my iphone :)

Love the dictionary and the fact that its now available as native iOS app

Outstanding app. Just discovered the wonders of Leo. Would recommend to all! 5 stars-hands down, Ja!
