User reviews

It's my first time I'm reviewing with this eagered heart. I appreciate its translation feature and all that stuff, but I seriously want to mention one issue, can you add a frequent copy pop up. whenever, I copy the text it pops up like Hindi to English dictionary which also have the same feature. It would be alot more helpful and the user base would also increase with this single feature update for sure

Hands down the best digital dictionary out there. It's lightweight, without ads and easy to use. I became a user more than a decade ago on the desktop version and I have since not stopped using it. I did explore other apps but kept coming back to this. The only con I find is, some words are defined by words which perhaps I don't know, I click those words to know their definition but they are defined with the original word I'm searching.

I propose that...lookup, search, recent, bookmarks, x–ref...all be placed in the same location in which 'lookup' and 'search' presently reside—limiting the others to a menu, hidden from plain view, only renders the app cumbersome.
