Latest reviews of Englisch XXL Expert Wörterbuch app for iPhone and iPad
There is no audio pronunciation for the German entries - only the English entries have audio. The description in the iTunes Store is misleading. I am very upset since other dictionaries are available with German audio at a much lower cost. I have asked for a refund.
Theres a kind of scrolling ad "LANGENSCHEIDT EXPERT DICTIONARY DEUTSCH-ENGLISH" in every word result, even after paying 99 dollars. I wish I saw the standard explanation for the Perfekt of the verbs, and also for plurals (z.B. for words in -ung it shows no plural because its always -ungen, but that is not stated anywhere.) The feedback link doesnt work. Besides these, very good dictionary.
Its already old-fashioned, comparing with ABBYY conveniences, alas.
It will be five star if you could remove bellow sentence to have more space for viewing words meaning: Langenscheidt Expert-Wörterbuch Englisch-Deutsch
The dictionary is really good. However there are major problems with German pronunciations! There are many wrong pronunciations! For instance, the pronunciation of "leben" and "lieben" is the same, which is completely wrong and even native German speakers have confirmed it to be wrong!!! Since I payed 90$ for this app, I expect "Langenscheidt" to fix all the wrong pronunciations in a major update! For a language learner, pronunciations are really important.
