Display bug

It’s not working on last iOS, it’s not Apple it’s you who have to fix the bug!

sound

cant listen to the sound

Not as good as old one

Paid nearly £20 like 13 years ago for the old version, it was a brilliant app but it’s not supported on iphone 13 and above, which is a shame.

A problem

The pronunciation doesn’t work, I can’t find the option to turn it on

Unsatisfactory App

The UX has been poorly considered for the mobile phone version. The hamburger menu is placed too high on the screen and so it doesn’t work on iPhone XR. I need to touch where the lower gap exists below the menu to access the functionality. Audio functionality doesn’t work. So the ability to listen to pronunciations is not working on iOS13 This is nothing like the printed book version it seems inferior. I spent £29 and this looks like an unsupported app, which is a pity as it’s one of the best dictionary’s available. It’s sad that it is neglected. The developers need to do a better job.

problam

my application dosent have any sound and I dont know why? How can I correct this proplem?

Terrible Update

Your last update is so terrible. There are many words with incomplete definitions; the definitions are cut in the middle. Moreover, the phonetic transcriptions of many words are also incomplete. Finally, the app always crashes after two-word search. I hope you fix these problems.

Doesn’t show the whole description for the words

After the recent upgrade, it just shows the first line.

Please fix it.

Cannot work with iPhone 11 Pro. Please fix it. Thanks.

Can’t use the app on IPhone XS

This is a great app that I have used it everyday for the last 6 years. However, it doesn’t work in my new iPhone XS. Can’t find any word when I search a word or even doesn’t show my bookmarks words. Would you please address this issue.
