| 2024-11-02 |  | | Looking up definitions is simple. However, I encounter increasingly many instances when a word is not in the dictionary. The app's search bar will auto-fill the rest of the word for me, only to tell me that it has no idea what word I'm trying to find when I tap it. In many cases, they are fairly common words that I just want to look up for a little clarification or nuance. |
| 2024-10-29 |  | | Good for single-word definitions and idioms. Can't translate sentences, but has conjugations for verbs. No offline capability, but not many/no ads. Very good overall app |
| 2024-10-07 |  | | Good app for translations. It also doesn't translate the whole sentence but tells us the meaning of each word which, in my opinion is better. Just make the UI a bit better. Otherwise, awsome tool for learning! |
| 2024-09-14 |  | | Really good in general and full of resources! The problem is while typing in, at the very moment the search box matches a term, the keyboard flashes for a tiny bit of an instant and disappears, which sometimes makes you click on whatever there is below it and it goes to another page. Really annoying because you have to start over and it's a waste of time! I suppose that the problem is the default keyboard, which is the only option. Anyway, thank you for the job you do! *Update: solved (it seems) |
| 2024-08-12 |  | | It's incredibly awesome! I really love this app due to the features are so helpful when I'm looking for English words. 10/10. I used to open this app when I was a student now as a teacher I can say it's the best tool for learning and teaching. |
| 2024-08-10 |  | | Using this app for years, but could you please prevent the completion of the loading of the ad from interrupting the input and closing the keyboard? It is happening after recent updates, but not able to say which one in particular. |
| 2024-07-24 |  | | It's one of the most useful dictionaries that you can find, but im struggling to scroll through the words as it keeps sliding to the side (from word reference to collins dictionary) and its kinda vexing. |
| 2024-07-16 |  | | 1. Nice dark theme, but text is faded gray instead of white; hard to read. 2. App has a "back" button, but not a "forward" button; if you don't remember where you began your search, you're forever lost, especially if you click on a menu item midstream. 3. Useless English-only results are mixed in with the Spanish (same issue on website). User cannot remove them from search results. |
| 2024-07-11 |  | | For English Greek translation, it is the best I have found online over years. It's navigation is very convenient between translations and synonyms. It provides multiple meanings, phrases and examples. Exquisite! |
| 2024-03-14 |  | | Still the best around, hands down. No other language reference apps even come close. Every translation for any word, conjugations, definitions, etc. Easy to navigate; almost every word displayed serves as link to its own entry! Not the most beautiful looking UI, but for good reason: It's extraordinary functional and powerful. If you're studying a new language, this is the only reference guide you need! (And for Spanish, it's so much better than SpanishDict.) |
