JDict Owner

I like this app a lot. Yes, it uses the same dictionary as JDict (EDict), but I think overall the results it returns is cleaner than JDict's. For now I'm going to keep both apps on my iPod and thoroughly test them both. Some things to keep in mind...

1) If you are like the reviewer who unfairly gave this one star because he needs to be constantly reminded of what the word for "go" is, then this app is not for you.
2) This app does not support Romaji input (JDict actually supports input and can display in Romaji) Most JE people can usually read Kana, but if you can't JDict may be a better choice.

It's really cool to be able to write kanji into the pad. This is really useful when you need something written on a sign or something to be translated. (JDict does this too, but it doesn't seem to parse into groupings as well.)

Finally, I would love to see a more robust dictionary in future versions (so we can find the word "go" if we're too drunk or stupid to remember). I would also like to see the incorporation of a reader that utilizes the camera on iphone to translate kanji. Most Japanese phones already do this.

[PS] Note to Apple: Kanji is not Traditional Chinese, or Simplified Chinese. Please include Kanji handwriting in the Japanese keyboard section. Certain Kanji have moved away from their original Chinese form. Plus, are you even selling iPhone in China yet?

adds comes up no matter what

Paid for no adds but still shows up every time. I have to go to setting for upgrade every time I use. It’s very annoying.

Great early 和英-英和 app for iPhone

I was quite hesitant as to if I should buy this app or wait for the next EDICT app to come out. I ended up purchasing this app.
There was one error which I experienced such as when I looked up a word, the output displayed the same exact entry twice. This should be a simple fix. I like the interface,readability and output relativity. It is very easy on the eyes. Of course it doesn't measure up to the DS楽引辞典, but if you don't want to carry around a DS, this referance app is your best bet.
A few things that I would love to see in future updates are:
Input history
Ability to zoom in on kanji characters
Kanji stroke order/count
A user dictionary
and JLPT lists

Overall great app!
