Latest reviews of Grand Dictionnaire anglais-français Larousse app for iPhone and iPad

How does one use this app?
This unabridged dictionary is excellent in the dictionary, but how do you use History and Bookmarks? Where are the verb conjugations? There is no instruction for getting the most out of the app and I cannot contact Larousse in English. Very frustrating to buy the most expensive app and not be able to use it fully.
Very good
Searching is very quick, and Ive never failed to find a word. Integrated vocal pronunciation is great too. The only thing it could do to be better is make conjugated verbs searchable, but there are other apps for this. This app needs an update. In-app pronunciation sound doesnt work and crashes the app since iOS9.
Sound doesnt work
Whats the point of paying so much for an app if its main selling feature - the ability to hear the words in French - doesnt work. I have an iPhone 6. Very disappointed.
Must have
Must have app for non native speaker Larousse absolutely must fix playback though! I routinely tap icon at the left of word 2-3 times to finally hear very much needed pronunciation (either on LTE or on wifi)
Almost perfect
The dictionary is great, but there are no verb conjugations. This is surprising, given that the abridged Larousse has them. Having said that, it is the best dictionary available in the App Store. It has an incredible range of definitions, and the pronunciation guides for each word are the best youll find.
