German Dictionary, Nifty Words App Reviews

Superb!

Beste wörterbuch app im appstore

Im glad I downloaded this app, definitely worth the $1.99. It will be great to decipher German signs without racking up the roaming charges. You can enter German characters, e.g. ä, ö, ü or ß (double s) by holding down the a, o, u or s key on the iPhone keypad for a few seconds and waiting for a menu to pop up with other choices.

Cant match with other professional dictionaries.

Probably one of the most comprehensive dictionaries for words, but there are close to no phrases.

First I downloaded the App and it did not work, so I deledet it and downloaded the App again. It is perfect, there are words translated that I cannot find in any dictionary! Way to go dieter.

This thing is great and its fast and offline! Much more extensive database than any other free dictionary. But two things need changing: need to indicate word gender (M F N - but I see thats in version 1.03 - cant wait for the update) and change the crappy icon (it just looks cheap compared with others). But these things are minor - get this app; a must for lovers of the German language. 

Exactly what I was hopping for. Sehr gut.

This app is awesome

I think a lot of Germans must have rated this, and as you may know, getting a "1" in German schools is like getting an "A" in America. This is the only explanation I can think of for why this German-English dictionary has so many 1 ratings. This dictionary is absolutely excellent! Its far more comprehensive than any of my paper dictionaries, and has very useful intelligent searching. Also, when you look at a word, just as with a very good book dictionary, the program also shares various phrases which include the pertinent word. Both my kids study German, and Im polishing my rusty skills. Nifty Words has been essential to our on-the-go search for words. Thank you for a truly awesome app!

I Love this app! I use it everytime i Need help with some german words. Whats more, i got the app for FREE while it was at promotion. 

Whether your mother tongue is English or German, if you move between those languages every day, this app is the only one you need. Incredibly fast and complete. One starts to type the word to be defined, without having to choose the language, and with the entry of the third character a list of likely words appears in both languages. The definitions are modern. Colloquial and slang expressions are included. There isnt another app in this field that is a match for the speed, ease of use, and bullet-proof reliability of Nifty Words.

What makes this dictionary so unique and valuable is that it provides all the variations and uses of words that you look up. Highly recommended!!

Simply amazing. Its more than just a dictionary, it lists every other word related to the word you look up. Impress your friends with this app and look up many words in the time it would take someone to look up just one word in a printed book. Herr Saken, you have outdone yourself! Danke schön!

I really like this app. It helps me a lot in my daily work, because knows always every word. Thanks - Danke !

Love that it brings up words as you type, AND you can type a German or english word (no need to choose a language first like a different app I tried), AND it works without wifi or data. Perfect app!

Very incomplete. Absurd errors. Found no match or was in error 50 % of attempts.

Nothing is missing, even conjungations and past tense forms are provided. Just exzellent!

If it did pronunciation it would be perfect. This is probably what youre looking for.

Used it to decipher menus and to try and remember my limited German. Worked great! Found almost every word I was searching for, and loved the conjugation of verbs!
