User Reviews

Overall, users praise the New English-Irish Dictionary app as a valuable, well-designed, and affordable dictionary with good cross-platform continuity and accessibility. It's described as the best English-to-Irish resource and a tool many use weekly. However, recurring problems center on the pronunciation audio not working reliably, with audio examples often unusable. Several reviews urge updates to the app, noting it's long overdue. Support reliability is also questioned, with links to help sites and hard-to-find in-app contact. Several users still regard it highly but say audio and maintenance issues hinder regular use.

  • Well designed and easy to use, with good continuity between app and website.
  • Affordable pricing and strong overall value.
  • Accessible language resource used regularly by many users.
Cons
  • Pronunciation audio not functioning; audio examples are often unusable.

  • In-app support and help links are hard to access or unhelpful; unclear contact options.

This is such a useful app and I love it for expanding my vocab but sadly the audio files don’t work, which is unfortunate because one of my favorite things about Focloir is the ability to hear how a word is pronounced across different dialects. Judging from the reviews, the faulty audio has been a problem for some time. At this point…hire me. I could get your app working.

At first the voice responses worked but then they just randomly started having trouble until altogether not working at all. If i want to hear the way a word is said I have to go to the website on safari.
