this app seems to have nailed the hard part, but really could have more features. talking to a French person with this app is more laborious than it needs to be, and can't be done in a car while driving. would love for the phone to have a car mode the following features: * huge button to accept audio input * recognize the audio as English or French automatically, and provide audio translation. then i could have a conversation while driving.

So quick and easy to translate from English to French and back to English or vice versa. With verbal or text input and verbal and text translation, you can read what's being said as it's being spoken. That really helps develop the ear for the sound of the language and improves aural comprehension. This is the best French language learning tool I've seen and also great for "conversation" between people who know little of each other's language.

Some words, out of context, will be incorrect translations...try to.give context in your search (a sentence instead if a single word). Also there is a consistent problem with gender. You can type "she" in a sentence but it won't change the adjectives in that sentence to feminine form...so you need to be aware of this.
