REVIEWS
"Ultralingua has been an invaluable tool for me! I travel outside of the United States with some regularity. Ultralingua Spanish has helped me expand my vocabulary and help with conversations and written correspondence. It's also helped me understand a lot of the signs and informational placards that are posted. It has really boosted my confidence when traveling abroad!"
"I have your Spanish/English and have been using it for many many years. I love this app so much that I tell everyone I possibly can about it. Every time one of my friends gets a new iPhone and asks me what apps they should get this is at the top of my list."
"I'm an undergrad linguistics major, and you're apps have helped immensely so far with learning foreign languages!"
"With an Italian father-in-law, a German mother-in-law, and Mexican parents, the languages fly fast and loose in my family! I am in need of help with my German, and your dictionary is a Great help!"
"Ive been learning Italian with the Ultralingua App and my study group have been impressed with the ability of quick searching whereas the traditional dictionaries take ages. The Conjugation has been an excellent way for a very quick verification."
"This app simply works. Its not filled with gimmicks, its intuitive, its the best!"
"Working in translation, your apps offer me immediate access to a wealth of information whenever I am on the go. Keep up the good work!"
"As a notary, I use languages each day and in all kinds of settings (legal, personal or commercial). I love your apps (I have French and Spanish) and think they are one of the most useful apps I actually use every day! Keep up the good work!"

I’m a beginner Italian student and purchased the Collins Italian-English dictionary offered through this app because it seemed more informative than just using a translation app. I really like the full list of conjugations, etc. However, I’m surprised that in just a few paragraphs of simple reading there have already been a few words that I wasn’t able to find in this dictionary at all and a few more which I figured out the infinitive of but still did not find in the list of conjugations. Furthermore, the translation app does recognize and translate all of these words accurately so I’m further confused as to why they don’t appear in the dictionary...
Cuesta lo que cueste, este app vale oro. Me ha servido como cualquier bueno amigo que tengo en las estanterías… en el bolsillo.
It’s very helpful. I find all words, and I love the verbs very detailed!
This app hasn’t been updated in two years and it shows. Every time I try to download language library updates it crashes. It seems Ultralingua doesn’t want to comply with Apple’s privacy transparency requirements because there is no other logical explanation for why they are not updating. DO NOT BUY THIS APP until they update.
An amazing application and once you start to really use it..one realizes how useful it can be to learn the language. It is my constant companion!!!
If you’re looking for a bilingual dictionary app, stop your search and buy this one. I bought this app over 15 years ago and I still use it nearly every day, to this day. 6 stars, no doubt.
It just crashes on my mac please fix the bug
