I am an avid reader but my first language is bengali. So, I often stumble into unknown words. This dictionary not only have detailed descriptions of words but also gives me the ability to create collections. I can group and store words easily to review them later on.

Here are my problems after using the app for just two hours: (1) You can't select only the most relevant definition to you. This means that the "Learn" feature could be using a completely different (potentially useless) definition. (2) If you misspell a word, there isn't always a suggested correction. Example: I tried "Messrs" but actually I needed to type "Messrs." with a period. Took me a while to figure out. (3) Unable to create your own entries. This would fix my first problem--and also fix problems where my word isn't listed in the Oxford dictionary. (4) The list of words within a collection is by default sequenced from when you added a word to the collection. The option to alphabetize the collection's word list has to be pressed each time you leave and reopen the collection.

I don’t mind paying a hefty lifetime fee for a product that’s pretty and works well, unlike some people. This one is beautiful, but has bugs. I like that it has an app for every device, unlike my other favorite Merriam-Webster, but none of the saved words sync between devices. None of the shortcuts or Siri commands seem to work with the Apple Watch. I wish I could say, “Siri, word of the day”, for the Apple Watch. Last release was over 7 months ago. Its seems the developers are abandoning this app and cashing in.

I think the app is great. The content and presentation are great. I runs flawlessly on my iPad and my iPhone. I have three different Mac computers. It errors every time I try to open it on all three machines. It has been this way from the start. I’ve written twice to the developer, Squircle Apps LLP. It has been over a month and I’ve never received a response. An online search indicates this is a known problem. The app needs to be fixed or the developer needs to quit advertising they support Mac. It is a lie.

The app is absolutely beautiful and attention has been given all of the visual details. However, the app is not very snappy and now that it requires a subscription my feeling is that it is not updated often enough to justify the cost. I wish I felt like this app deserved a higher rating but I’ve drifted away to other apps that are just as useful, more responsive, and only require a one time purchase.

Search for a word and you may be lucky to get a thesaurus result. It's called 'English Dictionary' but is says 'Thesaurus Included'. Even words in close relation are largely hit or miss. For example there are no results with 'Elevator' but if you search for 'Lift' you'll get results, including 'elevator'.Since this was the main reason I purchased this app I find it useless but I do appreciate no data collection and pay to own.

This app an easy to use and well designed tool that I launch from time to time to help expand my vocabulary. It is well worth the low price of entry.

I got this app because I was frustrated with my other online dictionary app. This app is very easy to use. It looks up words quickly and accurately. I am not a student or a writer. I know I'm not using it to it's full potential. I'm just happy it is such an easy reference. I appreciate that.

I have enjoyed using this dictionary on my computer, and look forward to discovering the extra features. So far, I have not found the thesaurus, but they say it is here, somewhere. Thank you for this wonderful app!

I enjoy the app enough to have an annual subscription, but I do find it frustrating at times. Every 2-3 weeks, it forgets I have the subscription. I have to uninstall the app and redownload it for it to work again and then do it all over in a couple of weeks.
