Latest reviews of Collins English<->Danish Phrasebook & Dictionary with Audio app for iPhone and iPad
Overall I am very happy with the app until now. Be careful with the OS 4.3 (8F190) upgrade with this application. After I updated the iPhone and iPad to the latest OS 4.3 (8F190), this app stopped working correctly. Even deleting and reloading it did not fix the problem. Most of the functions work fine except for the dictionary. In the dictionary option (whether in Danish, English, iPad, or iPhone), as soon as I press a key on the keyboard it cancels the app and throws me back to the home screen.
Bought this because of description I can hear the sound but I cant hear any. I asked them about it and they answered me to press upward the button of iPhone. I use iPhone for long so I do know it :D They answered me w/o checking any. Again I sent MSG to give me refunds and they answered me I should contact iTunes w/o any description. Why I have to spend time for their fault? Never buy this!
The phrase translation is easy to find a useful phrase, and the speak aloud capability is a good tool. The dictionary is modest in size, a translator size rather than a full dictionary.
