## Review summary

Users praise the dictionary as a useful, feature-rich tool for daily English–French lookups and often regard it as among the best. However, the current version suffers from reliability and compatibility problems: crashes, pronunciation/audio failures across devices, outdated iOS/iPadOS support, and weak handling of apostrophes/reflexive verbs, plus some search/data issues. Despite strong content, performance is inconsistent, undermining long-term value for learners.

### Pros

- Daily-use, feature-rich English–French dictionary that users rely on for frequent lookups.
- Regarded as among the best English–French dictionaries with strong content.
- Simple design that supports easy word lookups and quick access.
- Pronunciation feature adds value when it works (spoken language).

### Cons

- Pronunciation audio repeatedly crashes or fails to play (and the pronunciation function often stops working).
- Frequent crashes and instability, especially when attempting to hear pronunciations or during searches.
- Outdated and not updated for newer iOS/iPadOS versions, causing UI compatibility issues (including iPadOS 25 split-view missing).
- Input/keyboard shortcomings: apostrophe handling and reflexive verbs not supported.
- Search reliability problems: some words missing or the app loses connection to the underlying dictionary data.
