## Collins Dictionary Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***** "Perfect"
I wanted to be able to look up a word, get the meaning, be able to see both antonyms and synonyms, see examples of usage and as a bonus see the origins succinctly, with the ability to search easily and have the answers quickly and clearly. It performs all this without a hitch. Perfect for my uses!
-- Planetcatcher, 2025-01-02

### ***** "Excellent dictionary and thesaurus"
This is an excellent and very comprehensive dictionary and thesaurus.
-- m3333uk, 2021-12-08

### *---- "Rubbish dictionary"
Synonyms aren’t linked to definitions
-- very dissapointed UK, 2021-10-29

### **--- "Good dictionary; audio does not work;  very poor support"
The audio stopped working after my upgrade to iPhone 12, and it never worked in my iPad. Emailed the support team at Japan. It feels they don’t really care and there is no urgency. Otherwise a good dictionary; but, due to the above experience the overall rating is poor.
-- sreem22, 2021-06-20

### *---- "Doesn’t work and support is gone"
This app does not work properly on my iPad Pro. The audio works but very rarely. My mail to the developer monokakido.jp could not be delivered due to the issues on their server (poorly programmed PHP?). I want my money back.
-- ddttdd, 2021-04-29

### **--- "Good Dictionary & Thesaurus, But..."
The Collins Dictionary and Thesaurus has a very good coverage of English language words, however, the app itself seems to be lacking in the claimed functionality. Firstly, there is no ‘help’ or ‘FAQs’ available to consult. Furthermore, despite downloading the 330MB+ Headwords File, none of the pronunciation features work either. Looking at the Version History, the app hasn’t been touched in at least three years and despite Apple saying it has compatibility with my iPad (a 2020 iPad Pro), it appears to lack the functionality described.
-- Chatoll, 2021-01-18

### ***** "outstanding dictionary and thesaurus"
Very fast, extremely easy to use and exceptionally comprehensive. The audio headwords were an unexpected bonus. If I could give it 6 stars I would. Only wished i would have discovered it years ago.
-- MickeySunnyClacton, 2017-02-06

### ***** "Hmmmn"
So I finally caved and bought this. I had been contemplating it for a while. At £4.99 it isn't cheap at all but I'm really glad I did. Just like the previous reviewer remarked, I have also downloaded the headwords but cannot find the option to use them. I do not think a lot of thought went into making the option to use the headwords easy to find, when this app was being built. 

SOS! Please.
-- 😘😜😍😳😱😋😆, 2015-03-10

### ***** "Great - full dictionary in portable form"
It's surprisingly hard to find this official app in the AppStore, but I'm glad I did because it's excellent. 

Latest version adds audio headwords - or apparently does. I have downloaded them but can't find any words with one, unless the option to play them is incredibly well hidden?

Minor bug is that tapping on pronunciation strings opens words using the letters in the underlying don't which is useless and confusing! Should instead open the pronunciation guide.
