I am a beginner student of latin and wanted a latin dictionary that worked offline and was simple but not lacking and that is exactly what I got. It is reliable and hasn't been wholly lacking in most words I've searched. The primary problems I've seen is that, when searching, it almost always requires you to search a word from a particular declension or will not find it rather than the alternative of being able to predict what the word is you want. Also the fact results aren't shown as you type is mildly annoying. Overall very useful for beginner students such as myself and could be more so with minimal effort put into it. (Highly recommended for beginners; all others should keep looking)

Decent, but could have more
This app is just a dictionary used for looking up words that are not declined or conjugated. The words need to be in their original state in order for this app to fin them. Example: the app does not know what the word Feminae is, but knows what the word Femina is. This app is only helpful in looking up words in their non declined/conjugated state. However, once you find a word in that state, then it is helpful in the fact that it gives you a lot of detailed information as stated in the other reviews.

Search results
It a great app. I wish the search results would better like in Latin lite as you type it gives suggestions. And we should be able to browse alphabetically. Also, how about being able to type in a word in any declension and conjugation? Hope to see this in further updates.!
The declensions lists are great.

Has conjugation/declension chart for every word, awesome!
I use it with SPQR. SPQR is good, but it doesn't have chart for every word in all cases, gender and number, so I have to look for case endings and put them all together. But with this one, I don't have to do it anymore! It tells you the declension/conjugation, the word translation and its all endings. I love it!

It Works
I am only half way through the Wheelock grammar. While reading Coplestons history of philosophy I come across many Latin phrases and this app is the key to my understanding. If you can't find a word try cutting off a few letters to get to the possible root. This is very helpful. Jeff Z

Life-saver!
This app is very well put together and useful. I strongly recommend this to fellow Latin students because not only does it find the words for you but it also declines them too! EVEN ADJECTIVES! Must buy for Latin students and its only $1!

Good
The only thing I would change is different colors so I could read it better. Other than that, it helps a lot with a synopsis and stuff of that nature. it has been crashing often though. I would not buy it, if you haven't already. Google translate is pretty good if you are just looking up words.
RLThomson,
Very helpful!
This app has been super helpful in my Latin studies. While I have no issue remembering conjugations, declensions, and other rules of Latin grammar, vocabulary comes slower. This app has proven itself a boon in research and completing homework much more efficiently. Well worth the price.
Cheers!

Use “Deep Search” function to find the meaning in any declension or conjugation
This App is so powerful! When using “Deep Search” function (not “search” function), you can find the meaning of a word in any declension or conjugation!

Problems recently (2015)
This is the most useful Latin app I have found. Excellent content and usability. This update fixed all problems with recent iOS compatibility. Thanks!
