Very clean, simple, and effective. No frills or complicated menus! The edit feature was confusing at first - clicking the text to edit wasn't intuitive. It's also a pain when the whole bar is text, as I can't turn over the card. Lastly, I'd love an option to add more than just a translation. When learning vocab example sentences and such are important, but I can't see space for this. Despite all that I'm making great use of this app, thanks!
This app is amazing. It is what I have been looking for, for a long time. I found it by pure luck, but it is amazing nonetheless. I will make sure to put out good words about it whenever I get a chance. Just one suggestion: we can set the "Duration of Definition Display' to 1,2,4 or 8 seconds. Is it possible to add a fifth option that does not have a time limit and in order to dismiss it, we have to click on it?
I'd like to report the chinese translation is not accurate at all, another thing is the purchase for chrome is not allowed in my android app. Please fix it asap, thank you.
It would be even better if you could translate in the opposite direction, from x language to English. It would make way more sense, since you could look up a foreign word you didn't know, that you were reading on a website or in a book. I'm reading books in Spanish to help learn the language, and I really hoped I could use this to translate words while I was reading and save them to practice later. But as it is now, this isn't possible
It would be good if it could translate not only one word, but the whole sentences, phrases, etc... Also, I'd like it to have the landscape mode! The app would be rated with 7 stars, then)... And now, it's 4
I use the copy function all the time but I don't want every word I copy to be added to my vocab list. This app is a great concept but it should be when I click the search magnifying glass icon, not the copy icon!
In theory, it's just what I needed for my students; a way to send them the pronunciation for individual words via Evernote. But the Data Transfer is very unreliable. You need to transfer the whole collection, and you find only a part of it reaching Evernote, many words missing, and many words end up appearing several times. For an app that's supposed to save you some time, I would've been better off recording the pronunciations myself. If the Data Transfer issue ever gets fixed, it will be a worthwhile app.
Would have been great if it were able to recognize duplicates (adds words even if already in the list). Also if simple exercises (quizz or others) were featured, to revise the words.
Can you please add the IPA / əˈmɛrəkən proʊˌnʌnsiˈeɪʃən / (American pronunciation) right next to each word from the flash cards list. If you add this feature to the app, it will become a perfect app. Thanks a lot for your help.
On note 3. You can't click on 3 dots on right side of the app when you have no words in the app or when it's empty. You have to go out of the app copy a word and than come back it will let u to enter setting. 2. Add option so difination does not disappear unless user taps on the pop up. 3. Add option to multi select words in dictionary to delete. One by one deleting takes long time. I was using instadict app but I like urs. Just fix these plz and make it perfect. Also add option to disable sound if user wan
A really promising concept! But honestly, i'm quite disappointed for the lacking of "xyz language to english" dictionary. IMHO, dictionary for translating from xyz language to English is way more crucial than its counterpart for the sake of language learning. One would freely browsing to a foreign website which language he's learning with the aid of "xyz language to english" dictionary, he can not do that easily with this app's current inverted dictionary. PLEASE REPLY if you read this post.
I want to buy the plug in app of chrome but it always says that the item is not available for purchase.
Don't Give Up especially Service of Biscut!
It's a nice app but the 3 dots on the top right hand corner don't work and I don't know how to accesses the settings.
Really love this app but I can't purchase it on computer. reporting error all the time . I've send an E-mail . really need a solution.
The concept and realization of this application are really great ! Unfortunately, I get some serious issues with synchro between web and smartphone interfaces... And recently, I lost all my lists because of a signing up issue. I'm waiting for the technical updates to re-use this awesome app!
Just needs an option to change the current English Dictionary.
This is exactly what I'm searching for a long time. Thank you
Just ask...because I cannot find that function..
Somewhat confusing when I began using it, but now it is quite cool! An interesting design
Can't buy biscuit chrome :| "The item you requested is not available for purchase." Great app as always, the concept is way the best out in the market JiaYou Guys
Recently the bake it feature isn't working smoothly. When I copy a word or even enter one in the app by myself, the definition does not show up. Please resolve this asap.
Used to be good. However, I could not log in anymore. It said network error. Same error on my pc. Pls fix it! ** problems fixed. Thank you guys
please add Eng<->Thai dictionary too
Great idea. But could be better. 1. Example sentence, especially along with flash card. 2. Pop-up flash card without wake-up your screen, it may cause accidentally dial on some device. 3. Text to speech on demand(play button) instead read out scary sounds suddenly.
can I switch it off
this program is very useful and nice design as it very simle to use but two or three group of flashcards could not be conbined together. phrasal verbs are not recognized.
Its nice how fast you can get a definition of a word but I wish the window would stay open, it should have a tap to dismiss, it nice not having to share it to an app but that is still worth the time to get a better definition of a word.
It's really great app. I use eng-russian version, but I would like to learn Polish from English within this app.
Loved it. But my whole library was lost after the last update. So sad.
Would love to be able to invert the language options and search for Japanese words. Also, a Japanese to Japanese option (Kanji to Kana) would also be helpful.
Always using this App.
How can we add other dictionary to this app? Like .bgl or other dictionary
But increase definition display time
Muito simples e útil!
Simple and useful, great job!
This is great app.But I wanna ward of all displaies random word at Flash Alert.
Great app!!! What I love the most about this app is the pronunciation function, just copy the word and you'll have the definition along with its pronunciation, how great is that!
This app is terrible. I have a Sony Z. There is no settings menu, it won't come up. And it continually leaves a box on the screen from a previously copy board. I cannot get rid of it. & I cannot continue using my phone because of it. I have to uninstall this app after this review. This app although might be good in the future right now needs serious work.

All is nice but please make it for tablets also. There is no rotation now and it's uncomfortable to use it by tablet. And think about adding special option in flashcards when I can choose to see either original word or its translation separately. And then when I see any flashcard with original word I can try to recall the translation. That is the point and the way you train your memory. The best way for me now it is when you could tap on a flashcard and it turns over and you see a translation(like in Biscuit Box now).
