Saving my b-u-t-t in France

I’m on a 14 day trip and no one in our group knows French! My mom asks a million questions about how food is cooked, what it is, etc. I wanted to be able to help and make the process less frustrating for our servers! It’s worked great so far!

Excellent App!

This is an excellent app and is invaluable for English speakers traveling in France. It works very well even when on airplane mode.

good Idea - needs more content

This is a very necessary app. There are many phrases - words - idioms - one finds on French menus that are not clear, at least to the occasional Francophile. And this app is a good start. But there are still a lot of words that are not in this dictionary, and it would be of more value if the authors continue to work on the content and expand it. It would also provide them a reason to go to France and pay for the trip and the meals.

Very helpful

I was on a vacation in Québec and while dining at restaurants this app came in handy.

Unhelpful

I've been in Germany for two weeks now and I always try to use it at the restaurants but it barely has anything helpful It has entire descriptions for complicated sounding dishes buried you're just trying to figure out a word here or a word there it's such a waste of money I regret buying it
