Good app.

Fun to look through!

Very useful app

This is a handy app to have around. I have found it very useful.

Mr

Very good app.worth the money!!!!!!!

Great Idea

Im having a lot of fun with this. Well done to the creator (of the app)! One "must have" thats missing is the ability to forward a chosen phrase via email/twitter etc. as one finds in other apps (unless I missed it). One "nice to have" would be a section with more current expressions available in Latin (silly things like "git er done", "whatever" etc.). This is not essential, but might be worth a try just for fun. Still, I do like this app a lot.

Good

Well done. No problem. Thanks

Cool

This app is pretty neat but all it needs is a translator from English to Latin

Interesting, but incomplete

I like the idea for this application, but it has two flaws that bother me. First, the search function only seems to work for the Latin phrase, but not any words in the descriptive text. If youd like to search for a word you know and see if it applies to a Latin phrase, youre out of luck. Second, a number of the descriptions are truncated. The paragraph gets abruptly cut off after a certain character count, so you cant read the whole thing. Thats a pretty major failure by itself. I know its only 99ยข, but they could give it a little more effort for quality control.

In time...yes

nice interface...however, it would be greatly improved if u were able to share....

You cant even select Latin text to copy it

Is that a joke?

Great app

I enjoy the app its a lot of fun.

Good start

Great collection of phrases. Execution is so-so. Notes are truncated. Punctuation is omitted: e.g., "pro re nata PRN" should be "pro re nata (PRN)." Etc.

Needs (a lot of) work

This app has peculiar limitations. For example, in the index, translations display in their entirety. But when you open the entry itself, the translation is truncated to roughly 47 characters in portrait mode or 77 characters in landscape mode (on the iPad), which cuts some definitions off prematurely. So the information is there, but doesnt always display. Similarly, "notes" are truncated to about 250 characters (regardless of orientation), often ending mid-word. Theres plenty of empty space on these pages, so I dont know why the content is so chopped up. On the iPhone, there is no landscape orientation for the index, and the entries just rotate 90 degrees, maintaining their original width (with white space filling the right side). As a free app, this would be okay; but I cant recommend paying for this in its current state. (Note: The links to the developer website and support page do not work either.)

Very easy to use

Has everything you want to know

Love it!!!!!

Absolutely love it!!!!

Good reference

Its a decent reference to browse. Gives some info on history and use of quotes. Downside is that descriptions have typos and long phrases just get cut off.

Love this app

Fun to study, fun to make a surprise tweet or subject email message. Easy to use. Glad I bought it.
