I'm using this app for many years and I love it.It is the best!But recently ,when I open it,after couple seconds it opens my browser and some page with dose malicious warnings "You have viruses!!!...".What is going on!? Everything is fine now.

S70%
by S####:

Thanks to tools as this learning English for us non-natives is easier now than in the past. Wish I had had it in 2004, my English would have improved a lot earlier and it'd be better now. ¡Gracias desde España!

V70%
by V####:

I wish I could star my favorite words or phrases. But, honestly, what am I complaining about. After all, I have been using the free version. 5 star.

K70%
by K####:

I would have loved to rate it more than 5 stars if there were more stars available. It's the best dictionary application I've ever came across. Best apps ever!

H70%
by H####:

Paid for an ad free upgrade but i still have ads. Preposterous. Rip off. Dishonest.

C70%
by C####:

It won't define in English words of foreign origin. That is a serious drawback. The word of the day is too often too simple.

Z70%
by Z####:

Great app for looking up a word on the fly, testing your spelling, or just passing the time w a spelling bee or a game of Hangman. I like the word of the day and the little bits of trivia, too.

Z70%
by Z####:

Error message at the "MATCH" portion does not allow normal return to function. Message remains after uninstall and reinstall.

S70%
by S####:

I just now noticed when I left my first review for this app. It was in 2013. We're now almost in 2018, so obviously this app has been useful to me. Been using this app for the full 5 yrs. This is one app I always make sure to install again when I upgrade phones. It's one of those apps I don't want to be without. I use this probably more than any other app. Can't say enough about this dictionary. My fav dictionary and my fav app. Thanks for a very useful app.

Amazing honestly, but the only flaw is about the words history whenever I go back to check the words its long gone please do something about it to stop removing history.
