Gut aber kein Nuance

It is good if you just need to quickly translate something, but if you want a dictionary to learn German or do more formal translating, it is not the best tool... It often give multiple synonyms which do not ever have the same meaning as the German word being looked ( and vice versa). The links to verb conjugations is also useful

This is really helpful

I’m in German at my high school and my teacher always tells us to use Leo if we don’t know a word, because 9 times out of 10 Leo is right about a words meaning, than our book. Overall I love both the app and a website, the only thing is is that the website puts a lot more emphasis on the best meaning by sort of putting off to the side in a big box. But in the app the best meaning is less clear, other than it is at the top of the page. Overall I think the devs in Munich did a great job

The Interface Went Downhill

The new interface makes it hard to see page organizational layout as a whole.At least give the user a choice in Settings as to how they can view the page—rather than forcing everyone to use something new that may not personally suit them.How about bettering the functionality of the app instead—like adding a back button and history list?

Big help for quick translations while workin on iPad

I use LEO's website on the computer, and this app, whenever I work with translations on an iPad. I like the quick and profound results when searching for translations in english, spanish and/or german.I do not like, that the app looses it's focus on the line, where you enter the text (the web page keeps the focus in a really good way, so you can just start typing when you return to the webpage again and again). Is it not possible to implement that here with the app, too? Right now, after changing to the app first you have to tap into the entry field. That surely can be made better.Thank you!

The most helpful dictionary for translation

The extensive definitions of words in context and in common expressions makes LEO especially useful for translation. What isn’t covered in the dictionary itself comes from usage discussions.

Very useful app, not too glitchy.

I was using LEO online and had no idea there was an app. So glad I found it. It's simple to use, has lots of the languages I need a quick translation check in (DE, FR, ENG). I like the examples and links to similar words. It really helps both confirm the definition of the word I was checking and learn new words or grammar at the same time. Sure the app is imperfect- they all are- but it doesn't flood you with annoying ads or make you watch stupid videos. It just does what it says it will. And I appreciate that. A lot.

Go-to App For German Language

I‘m studying in a University in Germany and part of that includes learning advanced German. The best thing about LEO is that it gives you many possible meanings of words, not just the most common usage. For the quality of the content, they certainly deserve to be supported by the small annual subscription amount which you can decide whether to pay or not. They don’t cripple the app if you don’t subscribe like many other language apps. While it’s true you can use their website on a smartphone, the app interface is much easier to navigate.

Great app with super fast and helpful support

After trying several dictionary apps I’ve gotten to love Leo’s simplicity and user friendliness. I’ve now been using it daily for about a month and have been very happy with it. After being a bit confused about the way the words get saved in the Trainer list I contacted support and they immediately got back to me with the explanation I needed. Awesome customer service! Thanks a lot again! You’ve earned a permanent user :)

Word lists cannot be edited

The app is very helpful for looking up words and creating personal vocabulary lists. However, there appears to be no way to edit your lists once you’ve created one. For example, if you want to remove a word from a list or even your master list, it’s not possible. You can continue to add words indefinitely, but you can’t remove them or move them from once list to another. This is a big drawback.
