Top translation app.

No complaints. Only praise. For some stupid reason, Apple makes it very difficult to find 80% of the content on the App Store. Things are great for the stupid social apps by the Big Players, but good “unusual” apps, seem to be lost in the dark corners of App Forest. This is one of those apps. I sometimes spend hours looking for good apps, and they’re always buried deep. But, when you find one like this, I feel that the time is well spent. The problem is, most people are too lazy to look.

Anyway… I’m not good with learning new languages, especially Thai. This superb product always helps when I need it. Always !!

“No Data Collected”, is also nice to see.

Good luck with your app development. Thank you for making my life in Thailand a little bit easier.

Now, if you’ll come to the village where I live, and shoot the chickens that wake me up at 3AM, that would be great.

Absolutely fantastic. Best free app ever!

One of the best apps I’ve ever downloaded. Latin alphabet transcriptions are done very well, better than Google Translate (Apple Translate doesn’t even do them). I love the depth of explaining components of words, explaining words we don’t have an equivalent for eg ครับ (kráp) and that you can type how Thai sounds, if you can’t write it eg ‘sawatdeekrap’. This app has been invaluable to me and I can’t believe it is totally free. I have been using the App Store for 14 years and this is the best free, third-party app I have ever downloaded. Highly recommended for anyone learning (Central) Thai. My only complaint is that I can’t give it 6 stars.

Confusing search results

Search results not accurate. Look for go and you get gold. Look for come and you get to go down. Look for electricity and you get Volt! Likewise look for มา and you get มาก Totally confuses me when learning Thai. Apart from that the content is good. Really unfortunate that you have to go through 4,329 results MANUALLY to find the meaning of มา ...

Highly useful

Highly useful if you are a non-Thai speaker. Just find a word in English and the dictionary reveals exactly what you mean in Thai.

Works the other way round too.

Best Thai dictionary around!

This is a fantastic dictionary and I can't recommend this highly enough. It allows you to use the phonetics if you're not sure of a word which is a great feature. My husband is Thai and I have a lot of friends learning Thai and we've all found this to be the best/most useful app.

I find it really useful as when searching for a word, it'll give you the options and the context too, so you pick the right one.

Thank you so much for this app!

Best Thai resource ever!!

July 2014 - as our confidence & ability in the Thai language grow this fantastic app is still proving to be a much used and much loved resource. Recommend you download it for a real helping hand to learn Thai!! It's brilliant.

October 2013 - Thank you, thank you, thank you for this amazing app. We're learning Thai and have been very frustrated at the poor resources available. This app is wonderful and has really helped us.
