Stopped working- no results
I’ve had this app on my iPhone 13 , never any problems until recently. I’ve now deleted the app and reinstalled on two further occasions but it still doesn’t work. What is going on?

It’s very slow sometimes and stop the feauture that u can press the word many times so it is super slow and anoying use google dictionary.com don’t download it
Used to be good (updated)
Had this app (paid version) for a number of years and it used to be pretty good, just recently stopped working so useless now. Doesn’t even recognise basic words like ‘car’ now. I’ve emailed support but as others have said, No response. Update: it has now started working again so is my go to dictionary app again.
Now working again
Like the other recent reviewers on here, this app is no longer able to search for words. However it had no difficulty in taking my money when I thought paying for an upgrade would get it working again! ***UPDATE 12 Aug 2024*** Now working again
Many missing words
It seems that there are many missing words to this dictionary.. ?
Poor App
Anything you enter it says no results found
Previously flawless
But recent update made it not only ugly but no longer functional. So 3/5 as I’m not sure of this is now a dead app.
Unusable
The app is not working at all on my iPhone. I search for any word and it simply says “no results”. I’ve had to substitute with another app.
No results found
Every search comes up with “no results found” and freezes the app.
Something has broken
This app used to work well, but for the last week or so, it fails to find anything for most words I enter. Is this deliberate, or a bug? Either way, it makes the app unusable
