Pros and cons of English to Chinese (Mandarin) app for iPhone and iPad

English to Chinese (Mandarin) app good for

I used this app on a recent trip to China. It works as advertised. During dinner I wanted a cocktail and "I" "would like" "a vodka" "with tonic" seemed to convey the message well. I got what I wanted. After dinner "can i have" "a receipt" gave me what I needed. And always the ever popular "i do not understand" worked very well. For $4.99 it gave me what i needed...a slight edge!

Really helpful App. I travel a Lot and use this quite frequently. Big help!

This app saved me several times when I visited Beijing in April of 2013. A major positive is the fact you do not need to be connected to the Internet to use it. I was able to find a preset phrase for almost every situation I was in. Well worth the price. One down side, it does not display translated phrases in the Mandarin picture-character set. It shows the Romanized spellings of words. The folks in China did not understand what I was showing them. But the app also verbalizes the phrases which worked most everything except in noisy areas. Well worth the money if you find yourself going to China!

Some bad moments

The concept is good but the phases and words were not really useful in China. I was able to use "where is the metro" and "nice to meet you" but nothing else. It needs stuff like "what do you recommend?" What is this dish made of? Fish, chicken, beef, other?" "How much is this?" I travel a lot and can think of at least a dozen phase that this program needs.
