Pros and cons of KTdict Chinese Dictionary app for iPhone and iPad

KTdict Chinese Dictionary app good for

Its a reaaly good one. Ive just arrived in Beijing with just basic knowledge of Mandarim and that dictionary has been very useful.

Very nice little dictionary, with pinyin and even measure words included. Seems to work well as well with no crashes so far.

Been looking for an easy to use chinese-english offline dictionary for beginners. Since google translator does not work in China and baidu transis not good for reading pinyin, this app is exactly what Ive been searching for such a long time.

Search by English, pinyin at the same time and very fast too.

Intuitive to use, finds the correct words quickly, definitions accurate

Well done, easy to use and gets the results fast. Loving the live search-shows result as you type. One suggestion thou; allow the function to copy the translated Chinese word, this way I can use the translated word-phrase in emails.

Some bad moments

When I typed in "you" the app keep seeing it as pinyin instead of Eng .

Current version is susceptible to freezing and crashing. Occurs frequently. Fix please.

Not very good translating English into Chinese; missing a lot of words. Should include pronunciation of the words too.

If you use "Hong Kong" for voice output, it is completely inaccurate. The previous updated was much better in this respect.

Used to be great, now crashes all the time. Paid for the premium version, created a word bank that is now unusable since the app freezes all the time. iPhone 5 iOS 7/iOS8, hope update is coming soon.

Ive have been studying Chinese for a while now. I am currently living in China. I bought the app add on for the flash card trainer. However there are many words that it mispronounces. Example：呢 (pinyin:nē) the app pronounces it sounding like knee; then 没关系 (pinyin: méi gūan xì) the app pronounces the 系(xì) like with a sound like the word "eye" (s/eye)....please fix or refund me my money.
