Crash crash crash Please update this software, I bought two Larouse dictionaries (en/fr & francais) both crash frequently. I need this for a french class, and i can tell that if they both worked properly, they would be excellent. They are much better than the free versions I tried, in terms of logic and completeness. So I remain optomistic, but until these products are upgraded for my 10.1 galaxy tab, I am sad and unhappy.

Almost awesome Crashes all the time! Cannot look up verbs with pronouns with an apostrophe or CRASH. Lots of random crashes too. And I know it's not my phone.

a far cry from the iphone version as I've just switched from an iphone 3gs to the galaxy note, I've had this app on both os's. this one crashes when I look up "s' " verbs and isn't as beautifully designed as the other. If I had known sooner that there was only a 15min refund window on this I would've refunded it.

BJ App is good with continuous wifi connection, and extremely frustrating without wifi or perhaps data roaming (which I don't use). On first use app asks to download data "40MB" and does so. After 100% done (or so it says!) there is a folder on the internal memory of the phone (as seen through Windows) named 'Larousse' which was about 125MB first time around if I remember correctly. Now according to the info on the Market, the app will work offline, except for pronunciation. With that much data it should! But there is a catch - as you drive through rural Auvergne or wherever without a connection and want to look up a word, it may OR MAY NOT be in the database. If it is, it works fine. If it's not, the app force closes and on restart wants to go online to download more data. This goes on for weeks as gaps in the database are filled WHEN YOU HAVE A WIFI CONNECTION. So if you want an English-French-English Translator that works offline you had better be continuously online using this for weeks? or months? to fill in all the gaps in the database to get your money's worth with this one. If you download it in one one day and try to use it offline you will be as frustrated as I was.

Saved my life in Paris Best €5 ever spent on an app. This gizmo was super handy while navigating Paris and communicating with fracophone-only Parisians. Recorded pronounciations requires Internet access.

Needs lots of improvement! Looking for some words makes it crash and force close. The pronunciation always fails saying it needs to be connected to the Internet!!!

Crashes whenever you use an apostrophe The dictionary is comprehensive, with lots of sample phrases, but it crashes anytime you use an apostrophe. Since the dictionary separates the regular and reflexive versions of the same verb, this means you can't look up any reflexive verbs that begin with a vowel (i.e., s'). Or expressions beginning d'. And there are lots. I write Larousse about this a while ago, and hoped they would fix it. But they haven't. I'd give the dictionary a 5 if it weren't for this major bug.

Good but crashes Very useful and quick for looking up French or English words. Good verb conjugation lookup for French. Lacking in searching by all conjugations. Also crashes frequently

Great Replacement for My Franklin Larousse For years, I have carried the Franklin-Larousse French-English electronic dictionaries on my travels to France. Now I have the same dictionary with greater capability at lower cost on my phone. I no longer have to carry the separate dictionary. Moreover, this one has the French pronunciation. I love and am delighted with it.
