Pros and cons of English-Czech dictionary app for iPhone and iPad

English-Czech dictionary app good for

Thank you very much for this app. A fuzzy matching (r->ř, etc. ) would be nice.
Works well. Was able to translate most words I needed. Be careful when entering characters -- e with a ^ on top is not the same as e! The next version should allow more relaxed searches where you can enter an e and still find an e with ^ on top.
Does what it needs to do. If you are trying to translate from Czech to English and having trouble, go to your iPhone settings and turn on your Czech keyboard. That way you can type in the words with the accent marks, so it will stop telling you "no translation found."
Quick and handy! Words show up instantly as you type. Its not your typical dictionary with detailed definitions, but it rather gives you a list of translations. With gender having an important role in Czech grammar, I wish the dictionary provided gender info (feminine, masculine, neuter). TIP: Make sure you type the exact Czech words with all the symbols (i.e. "pondělí" not "pondeli"). Otherwise the words wont show up.
Anyone who says this app is not awesome doesnt know what they are talking about. I went to Prague for business and this was an extremely helpful tool. The audio help and grouped word translations worked splendidly!!!
I grew up speaking Czech with my parents and still occasionally visit the Czech Republic. I have found this app to be extremely useful translating in both directions. I suspect the users giving low ratings are using it incorrectly as I have yet to type in a word that it doesnt know - they are likely in the wrong half of the program or leaving out the accents. I like that it gives several alternate definitions. The vocalizations are accurate as well. Very useful program for me, but I also suspect very useful for a beginner.

Some bad moments

Seriously, avoid this and get the BitKnights "Czech English Dictionary" instead - it is much, much better.
this app. is terrible. i live in prague and thought it would be helpful to look up words that i didnt understand. so far, it hasnt been able to translate a single czech word to english. not a single one! it just says "no translations found".
Before you were able to use this app to look up words in both directions. Czech <-> English and English <-> Czech. Now its lost half of its usefulness to me And now you get ads. There are better apps out there.
