Satis bene Perfect for when studying on the train with no reception. Would be awesome if all declesions and conjunctions were provided but its only a dictionary

The latest version breaks searching from the search button on the phone (HTC Desire). An otherwise excellent app.

Very good and saves lot of time but doesn't link well. On the e-l side we see "dare" but it can not link to "do" on the l-e side.

FVery good app. It is not perfect and it would be nice if conjugated words could be searched. Too many want this to do the work for them though.

Took this to Europe to decipher Latin inscriptions. Guess what, it needs data roaming (extortionate cost while overseas). FAIL. Make offline default.
