Contact Dictionary Linguee Support

First of all I love the service and the function it provides. However, the app refuses to do anything without local network access, and Linguee is very dodgy about revealing what it is needed for. They claim it is to access an “integrated network server,” which from what I can tell is basically non... Show more sense jargon to confuse people into clicking ‘yes.’ When questioned in an email they responded that they “cannot disclose any further technical details about our app,” which seemed like a very strongly worded non-answer if it really was something simple and benign.

They won’t even let you use your offline dictionaries. You either grant them unfettered access to your local network and connected devices or you don’t use the service. I’d love an explanation of what could be so important and why they must be so secretive about it.

Linguee is my absolute favorite German dictionary. Great examples, great layout, and overall much more reliable.

However, as a rating for this app, it has absolutely horrific stability issues. Switching between apps, to copy a word for example, will cause the entire app to freeze. If the app...

This may not sound so bad, however with the frequency I switch between apps while using Linguee, it holds it back from being as useful as it could be.

I use Linguee dozens of not hundreds of times a day learning German. I am a huge fan! However it also means if I’m running into the same issues all the time, the app freezing, being unable to type / search when returning to the app, it gets really beyond frustrating. I feel like I’m at a point wher... Show more e I don’t want to use another app for my go to mobile dictionary, but I may need to. I think the issue may lie with suspending the app while searching, and it not handling this event properly. Without this one bug of being able to quickly search a term without clicking on a search result causing the app to freeze or sometimes crash, it’s effectively everything I want in a multi-lingual dictionary. Please fix this y’all ;_;
