Excellent App

Good vocabulary, good interface, and unlike most dictionary apps, includes noun gender.

Froze up

The app won’t open even when I go to the App Store and it offers an”open” button. In other words, worthless.

★★★★☆ United States · v2.10 · 29 Sept 2023

Wonderful, except for crashing

I have used the German and French versions for years, and they are indispensable; however, on a current trip to Germany, with heavy usage, I have had to delete and redownload the app twice, due to crashing upon launch issues. This has always been a sporadic problem with this app. I'm disappointed that the issue continues. I rely on this dictionary, and I wish this issue could be solved!

Best German<->English Dictionary

Similar to the French - English dictionary, which I’ve used for years, the German Ultralingua dictionary is equally excellent. Vocabulary and verb conjugations are at your fingertips. Change the font to meet personal preference. There are several free German dictionary apps available but none are on a par with the Ultralingua dictionary - well worth the nominal price!

Very satisfied. No problems.

A very convenient and handy dictionary app. I've had no problems with it. The conjugation tables are really helpful. Also, you can click on any form of the verb and hear how it is pronounced. Admittedly, the pronunciation of the verb forms is a bit robotic sounding, but at least it gives you an idea of the correct pronunciation.

Pronunciation?

My fault. I didn't notice b4 I purchased That I would NOt get help with pronunciation. That's true for my Espan~ol App also. Otherwise ok. But not ok with me S L L

★★★☆☆ United States · v2.9 · 19 Mar 2023

Generally good - lacks important feature

Generally this is a good dictionary. However, that is lacks indication with verbs on whether they are transitive or intransitive is a major flaw.

— Chrahofi

★★★★★ United States · v2.8 · 29 Oct 2018

Recommend highly

I purchased this app over 5 years ago and I’ve gotten more value out of it than any other by far. The conjugation tables are invaluable. And unlike many dictionaries, it will present all the possible intentions of the word to prevent error (for example the word for ‘chain’ could be translated ‘ketten’ or ‘verkettung’, but the second refers to a chain of causality). It may seem pricey but it’s honestly an amazing value. *highly recommend*

— Adrian-Atoro

★☆☆☆☆ United States · v2.7 · 1 Nov 2016

Absolutely dismal

I have been trying to look up the meaning of "das Regal" to see it's plural and it's showing me a translation for some random verb...seriously?

I gave the previous version 5 stars. However, this update is not near as good. PLEASE bring back the old format. Much more user friendly.

Nice, but missing the articles for nouns

I am trying to learn German and unfortunately they do not include the articles for nouns. This could be the best translation app very easily but they don't seem to be interested in improving.

Fantastic Dictionary!

I use Ultralingua apps for several languages and they have all been superb. I like the built in conjugations for verbs as well. Very nice.

— Sandtreader

★☆☆☆☆ United States · v2.7 · 18 Jun 2016

Problems discovered after most recent update

The latest app iOS 9 update seems to be defective. I'm encountering problems and bugs such as, when I enter a word into the search field, it just remains there, no matter how many other words are researched. Using the back arrow keys does nothing to remove the entry. Additionally, after looking at verb conjugations, it is impossible to back out to the original screen. These "issues" need immediate attention and resolution.

★★★★☆ United States · v1.5.4 · 22 Mar 2013

Multum in Parvo

I have three Ultralingua dictionaries: Italian, French, now German. Even if one knows a language fairly well it is easy to blank out on a word, or gender, or verb declension. All these dictionaries, within the limits of an IPhone's memory, are useful and impressive. German being my weakest language it is nice that this is the best of them all. Generous usage notes--"pick" as "choice" nicely differentiated from tool--the Italian and French are less good about this. Excellent verb section_ a pure extra in a dictionary. Very good coverage--even gives "loipe" as "langlauf"--cross country skiing. Bravo!

Downgrade?

The new look of this app is harder to read. The fonts are too thin and fancy. The new interface is not very intuitive and the whole app seems much slower on my iPhone 4. Very diassaponted.

I hate this update!!!

I have been using these dictionaries on my ipad (in German and Italian) for at least 3 years and this update is just horrible. The new format gives little information on a page so it takes much, much longer to find what you are seeking and then to get the conjugations, etc. the conjugations are far less legible than they used to be. I hate this update and wish that I could get the old format back. Why would they go backwards?????

— Patrizia2

Ich mag es!!

I lived in Vienna for half a year for school and this app. helped me a lot. I loved the conjugation feature with all the different tenses. Helped me get through german class! I also loved that it didn't have to be online to get the translation. It was also great for the grocery store. Thanks!!!

— Brassgirl1

★★☆☆☆ Australia · v2.3 · 30 May 2013

Retrograde Update

The latest update has made the dictionary much less useful: fewer entries can be seen for queries and on the iPad the use of space is much poorer. It just feels lacking like a 99 cent dictionary. This is a shame as the old format worked well.

— Kdel765

★★★☆☆ United States · v2.3 · 31 May 2013

Indispensable, though the new icons a major backward step in usability.

The Collins Ultralingua dictionary content and new user interface overall is good. The one major, major minus - They need to bring back more easily identifiable icons. The flags worked really well for quick easy access to the right dictionary. Can barely discern the difference now. Also, Do not bother to download the Ultralingua bookshelf. It is just a marketing tool for Ultralingua's benefit not their users'. It forces an extra click to get to the dictionary you need while presenting you with needless commercials and social media options.

Great dictionary

When I lived in German for a year this was my go to dictionary since it was always available when I had internet access or not. While cheaper or free English-German dictionaries are available this is definitely worth the money

What happened to landscape mode? Thumbs down!

I also have the Spanish & French dictionaries from Ultralingua, and can't believe that with this update, the landscape mode is gone from all three. Frankly I'd much rather do without the latest 'improvements' but at least be able to use this on my iPad. The worst part about it is that even in portrait mode, when you try to enter any text for search, the keyboard that pops up is in… landscape mode, which blocks the field where you're supposed to enter the text. Thus rendering this app TOTALLY useless. Please fix this PRONTO!

The Collins German English dictionary and verbs for 29.99 is the same app as this one, same dict same version. Haven't used this one yet but wanted to give the heads up on the price. Unfortunately iTunes won't let me review the other app to warn shoppers there.

Crappy dictionary

Some of the German words it doesn't have are incredibly common, so it's pretty useless: Rinnstein, Gulli, verhunzend, Klappsmühle, Zecke, mickrig, motzen - it's a looooong list.

Not as complete as "Collins Unabridged" but still good

I'm not sure the exact relationship between the "Ultralingua" and "Collins" brands, but I bought this before I realized that there is in fact a "Collins" brand *unabridged* German dictionary available in the iTunes store ($34.99). While this dictionary is certainly good, it's not as complete. In particular, finding expressions is not as easy. I also miss the bookmarking feature. One good thing about this one is the standard use of the pinch-to-zoom (something those of us with not-so-perfect eyesight always appreciate). The animation when you change translation direction is also kind of cool to watch. ;)

★★★★☆ United States · v1.4 · 19 Apr 2011

Nearly complete/glitch free

Not a complete,full referenced dictionary that you will find in an actual full-size dictionary, but for the most part quite extensive, and it is incredibly quick since it requires no internet. As an English teacher living in Germany for almost 3 years, it has been very useful in all level courses. Some colloquial, specialized and seldomly used words you will not find this dictionary. Go to Leo dic for that answer. This dictionary lies somewhere between Leo dic, which rarely gives context or useage, and a full size book dictionary. The weight of dragging around a giant Langenscheidt dictionary was by far the biggest tradeoff.

Sluggish iPad performance after update

The dictionary is still terrific, but the latest iPad update slows the app to a crawl. The app sometimes takes seconds to recognize key presses, and seconds more to return a search result. Oddly, the same app on iPhone works instantly.

The Verbs are missing the transitive or intransive indication, one could really use some form of saved lists of words, reference to similar verbs (different suffixes). What about copying? No grammatical references? this is supposed to be dictionary.

...strange glitch by which the English word cannot be found but the German "Neuseeland" can be. Sierra Leone? Nope. Same in English and German though. Perhaps a random country QA is in order, developers? I am otherwise very happy with my purchase. Verb conjugation is the most difficult part of my language learning, so having this resource handy (auf meinem Handy!) is great.

Great Information - Little Slow / Buggy

I've enjoyed using this application. I primarily use it to look-up words I encounter when reading German language websites with Safari on the iPhone. This involves doing a select/copy on the word in Safari (or other German text application), closing Safari, launching the dictionary, and pasting the word into the search box. I have been very pleased with the search results and definitions (i.e., they provide many different translations and context usages). However, I have two non-trivial problems: 1. I cannot paste text into the search box anymore since the v. 1.3 upgrade (which caused the dictionary to crash everytime I tried to launch it). Although 1.3.1 seems to have fixed the crash problem, I can no longer paste text into the search box like I previously did nearly every day (and copy/paste works just fine in other apps). 2. The start-up time is painful. I want to be able to look words up quickly while reading. It can take 20-30 seconds to complete the operation I described before, most of which is the Ultralingua startup time. If it weren't for those two issues I'd use this application much more frequently.

I should have read the other reviewer saying there is no pronunciation. Seriously, I would have never dropped 20 bucks for a dictionary that doesn't have pronunciation, I don't care how good this dictionary is. How could you possibly have a dictionary that doesn't help you pronounce the words (especially German!) I want my money back.
