## Review summary

Overall, user reviews for the French-English Dictionary on iOS are largely negative. Recurrent complaints center on intrusive ads (including full-screen and video ads), annoying upsell prompts, and deceptive monetization. UI problems frequently block the input and translations (giant flags, white-on-white text), sometimes making it hard to see results. Performance issues are common—laggy typing, slow response times, and glitches after updates. Translation coverage is unreliable: many common words missing, some words untranslatable, and occasional incorrect translations (e.g., demo terms). A few users still praise the core dictionary and basic functionality.

### Pros

- Core French-English translation functionality is present and usable for basic lookups.
- Several reviewers describe the dictionary as 'fantastic' or generally satisfactory for basic use.
- Some users find the app lightweight and adequate for quick word lookups.

### Cons

- Intrusive ads and full-screen video ads, with upsell prompts to paid apps.
- UI/visual issues such as oversized national flags blocking the input area and white-on-white text making translations hard to see.
- Poor performance: laggy typing, slow response times, and glitches after updates.
- Inconsistent translation coverage and accuracy: many words missing, some lookups yield no results, and occasional incorrect translations.
- Loss of grammar/gender information in updates.
