GILROY CAR CLUB

I loved this app. But then, disappointingly, an update added generative AI. Using this app is not worth supporting a plagiarism machine that destroys the environment. That and it no longer shows me a list of word suggestions while I’m typing in the search field.

Would easily be 5-Stars if it synced across other iOS devices like iMac, Apple Watch, Apple Vision, and if additional learning options existed like flash cards.

I’m gonna give 5 starts and subscribe as soon as they offer sync in iPad and Mac.

I really wish Lookup would start on the search page, or have a setting to allow it. It’s such a friction point when I’m in the middle of something and just want to quickly look up a word to have to stop and fumble around to get it to go to the search page that I’m probably going to go back to Word Web if this isn’t fixed soon.

I can finally look up a word in my native language

Recently, I emailed application support the following, which summarizes my like for the app and my suggestion for improvement: Hello. For a long time now, I’ve been a big fan of your LookUp iOS app, which I most often use as a dictionary. I love the beautiful imagery in your app, as all the beautiful pictures in the app make your app more a pleasure to use as a dictionary, instead of just using a plain dictionary containing only words! 👍 May I make a suggestion that I think would improve the usability of your app, not just for myself but for others as well? Include links in the definitions to similar words. Let me explain: Today I looked up the word “admonition” in your app, and the noun meaning says “an act or action of admonishing”. Since I was not certain of what the word “admonish” means, I had to go back to the search bar in the app to search on the word “admonish”, to find its definition. Had there been a link to the word “admonish” in the definition section of the word “admonition”, I could have more easily tapped on such a link and been brought directly to the dictionary definition of the word “admonish”. I certainly hope this email finds you all well. Have a wonderful weekend!! Update: I received a nice response back from the developer, indicating that these links in the app I suggested are being worked on, which is great news! 👍

Not enough available for the free version

I’ve never used a dictionary on my phone, but Look Up now gets daily use! The app functions perfectly and I have never run into a single bug in all my time of using it (~2yrs now, I had it back when it was a one time purchase). I came here just to give it a review after confirming the difference between two similar words (alternate vs alternative) & realized I hadn’t helped the app out after it’s helped me out so much. So cheers dev, thanks for a great app!

I’ve noticed that my “word of the day” notification appears to be broken. I’ve gotten the same word, “mercantile” everyday for the past two weeks. Is there something going on with the app? It’s really upsetting because I am a paid member and really looked forward to expanding my vernacular. ------- Relevant Debugging Information: OS: iOS 17.4.1 Device: iPhone

It was cute, but not that cute.
