| 2024-08-05 |  | | Great app, I really like the seamless integration with Anki, but sadly the app's word search suggestion list isn't responsive and doesn't even show up after I've typed out the word I'm searching for for some reason so I have click on other sections and come back to the search section before that list shows up... Will update my review if this ever gets fixed. |
| 2024-04-10 |  | | Developer efforts highly appreciated. However, app mostly works on browser like Chrome etc. Anywhere else "look up" option doesn't pop up if a word is selected /highlighted. Copy option is not practical, as many a times long texts are copied not intended for word lookup. I like concept behind app because I am iPhone user and was looking same functionality in android OS. |
| 2024-02-02 |  | | I loved this app. I have been waiting for this type of app since many years. I have no problem with ads or definations, everything is perfect. But there is only one problem whenever i search the word which contain f or ff like 'offset' it reads the f as  and searches for the word oÂset instead of offset. Rest is too good. |
| 2023-06-25 |  | | Strongly recommend! So far, It was the best among many I tried. Certainly if you want a one able to show the meaning on a popup window over any page like web or pdf, without causing any trouble or distractions for the other apps or web. Just select any word and tap on this tool to show the meaning. And Importantly, you can add or set Cambridge or other advanced ones through in-app options... Well done... |
| 2022-06-12 |  | | This app is a decent replacement for people who miss the 'Define' feature of Apple iOS devices. It works very similar. Two problems would be the frequency of ads and the variety of disctionaries allowed. I would prefer if the app allowed only one/two dictionary sources for each language. Maybe use the same dictionary that the keyboard spell checker uses |
| 2021-11-03 |  | | I haven't updated this app in a while, all was working well, suddenly after a recent update I'm seeing ads. Which... is regretable but understandable. But imagine my surprise when said ad pops up over my reading and I have to click it away! This really ruins the reading experience and I have to say I'm disappointed. Will have to look up (pun intended) a new dictionary extention. |
| 2021-06-25 |  | | This is app is very great and helpful. As a reader, it helps me boost my vocabulary as well as learning. Looking forward for new interface updates. Like I hope there's a transparent or a blurred effect on it. Also an exit button for the pop up. Additionally, some texts are covered by the button right on the bottom corner. Looking forward for new amazing updates. Totally great and helpful. |
| 2021-06-04 |  | | This app has got perfectly everything i need, with a few exceptions.. Perfect for reading stories, saves a lot of time from opening a separate dictionary and type the word and etc hassles.. I wish the free version had the option to add 3 dictionaries instead of just 2.. And.. It doesn’t work on every app, like wattpad or wps office- my core reading apps. Which was a bummer tbh, i ended up having to find an online ver of the book just to be able to use lookup. |
| 2021-01-27 |  | | Seems like a great app. Unfortunately, though, it isn't compatible with Android 10 or up; which you don't find out until after installing it and then you get a pop-up. I really wish it was stated in the description. Waste of time. UPDATE 01/27/21: In response to Dev's comment. It does work in Android 11 by selecting/highlighting a word. But it doesn't seem to work universally in all apps. |
| 2020-11-01 |  | | Excellent work, loved it. There are only two flaws, one is excessive ad which sometimes cause too much annoyance. Suppose you are reading a book, you copy a word for looking up, it opens and suddenly an ad appears in fullscreen mode. Other drawback is that it doesn't pop up if you copy more than one word, so you can't see the meaning of any phrase of idiom with it. That's it. Rest is too good |
