Title: Great value for $2.99
Once you are in a category, you can jump to the phrase you want by writing it on livescribe notepaper and double tapping the pen tip when you see it appear on the screen. This written phrase becomes a permanent shortcut to the written and spoken german translation, no matter what application you are in (if you are recording and you tap your phrase, you will get the written translation, but no audio - pause or stop the recording to get audio too). This product would be better if it shipped with a printable 'index' phrasebook with premade shortcuts to very phrase. This is why I gave it 4 stars, not 5. Obviously an advanced version with more phrases would be great, too!
