Bad app, does not respond. (Aplicação ruim. Não respondi)
I’ve had this app for about a week and it’s extremely glitchy. It rarely responds to whatever word I put in to translate. I paid $13.00usd (R$65) and I would love my money back. I DO NOT recommend this application. Tenho este aplicativo há cerca de uma semana e ele é extremamente problemático. Raramente responde a qualquer palavra que coloquei para traduzir. Paguei $ 13,00usd (R $ 65) e adoraria meu dinheiro de volta. NÃO recomendo este aplicativo.
United StatesDictionary good; program fair
This dictionary may not serve the needs of either Portuguese speakers or of English speakers as well as they might wish. Most importantly, since both languages have complicated orthographic and pronunciation systems, the lack of an IPA representation of the phonemes is a significant weakness. There are recorded sounds instead, but the quality is so poor that I had trouble understanding the performance of several common English words. In addition, if the environment is noisy, as it might be out on the street, you’re not going to hear these at all. The history mechanism is very clunky. There’s no way to just use a keystroke or a button to go backward and forward in the history; you have to change to history mode to see the list. In addition, if you go back and forth between several nodes, each visit becomes a new entry in the history list, so the utility of the list gets smaller and smaller. I am glad to see another good English-Portuguese dictionary available in the App Store. I have been using the Collins bilingual released by Ultralingua. The Portuguese content is stronger in this dictionary, I think, but that program is easier to use. You might want to look at both of them.

This is the first review I have ever done on any product, on any website. However, I believe that this App merits another review, especially because of the above-mentioned negative review regarding the search function. The reviewer says that the search function is deficient. I disagree. A thorough reading of the help (Ayuda) instructions is necessary. There are five different ways to search. If one search method doesn't provide the results that one wants, there are four more options. Also, the user can search in Portuguese, Portuguese/English, and English/Portuguese, which allows one to cross-reference if there are doubts as to the meaning of the word being searched. However, it should be noted that the App seems to be designed more for native Portuguese speakers and/or users with a fairly advanced knowledge of Portuguese. The "advanced" search function is for Portuguese only. Also, the App is fairly complicated, not because it is poorly designed but because it does so many things, and does them well. Note also that the help instructions are in Portuguese only, or I have not found them in another language. Therefore, if the user does not understand Portuguese well, he or she may have difficulty understanding the instructions. I was interested in purchasing the App but hesitated after reading the negative review. After reading the negative review I contacted A&H Software via their website with my concerns and almost immediately received an email reply with a very good explanation of the search methods. For any App, the user is always pleased when the developers are customer oriented and this certainly is the case with A&H. In conclusion, the Michaelis Moderno Dicionário Português e Inglês is a very comprehensive and complete dictionary and the A&H Software Ltda. App is very well designed and executed. I can highly recommend it. Cacambo
United StatesVery poor search function
I don't recommend anyone purchase this until they fix the search function. Essentially, it makes an otherwise good dictionary nearly useless. It does not recognize plurals or feminine forms, and it misses basic words, which it shows as 'not found'. Also, no smart type or text prediction. Unfortunately, this is not ready for prime time!
United StatesWell worth the price
So many beautiful words! Definitions, usage suggestions, conjugations, cross referencing, slang. Useful resource for writing and translation.
