German Dictionary, Nifty Words App Reviews

Spending 80 hours in Munich studying German. There is no single perfect dictionary, except the several inch thick paper variety. Of the 4 Ive cycled through, this is the one I reliably go to & find mostly correct translations quickly & easily. Its a relatively small dictionary, but for everyday words is great. Biggest complaint is that the neuter or das symbol looks too much like symbol for feminine, at least on iPhone screen - whether right or not, please make it more distinct! (Id add a star if theyd fix that). Otherwise, very good for the price.

This is a really quick, accurate, and respected source. I am learning German and I prefer this to google translate. And for only 99¢ its a good deal!

I have been through many language apps, and I study German the most. So far, I trust and use this app the most. I really wish thus developer would do more languages.

I havent checked other German-English dictionaries, so I cant tell if this is the best or if there are better ones available. As for this one, it is good Pros: Decent coverage of everyday phrases. Search after 3 characters in both languages is very useful and convenient Price is OK Cons: When I was checking out the app extension I found a typo "standart" in the welcome screen. That does not give my high confidence in the spelling accuracy. Way too much focus on British English provided that the are approx. 6 times more Americans around. Recommendation: get a native American speaker involved in a version 2.0

I love this app. I went on an exchange in Germany and used this app daily. It was wonderful. It not only gives you the translation of almost any word, but it gives you some conjugations and how it is used as well. Im completely satisfied with this app. I wish there was a Nifty Words for Italian too!
