Does not work on ipad v13.5

manuel.alonso on

I just downloaded the app paying 3,5 € after seeing the “fantastic” features but the app doesn’t even work in my ipad(v13.5) . I want my money back !

Could you add the new words into your own lists?

Yolandasusan on

Hi! I just downloaded this app and am trying to figure out how it works. When I look up new words, I haven’t found any button to put new vocabulary into my lists, while in the web version, you definitely can do this. Besides, it would be better if this dictionary shows the IPA of the pronunciation.

Love it!

aroa on

It’s an amazing app to learn and play at the same time. And most of all, the definition and examples are just gorgeously done. I use Vocab every single day because of the witty explanations. Thanks a lot!

Slow interfice

Mponsclo1996 on

Needs a new actualization, because it goes slow.

Muy buena

Ignaciofood on

Salen todas las palabras y declinaciones que buques y la mayoria las puedes meter en el circuito del juego despues para ir aprendiendo. Muy bien!!

Where is Google login?

SantiFdezMunoz on

The application is great, actually after using web version for 10 minutes I decided to buy the App because I found it very helpful. But, does not make little sense allow you register on the page by using your Google account and then you cannot login in the App using Google? I was able to login in the App by browsing my profile in the web but is absolutely counterintuitive. Once that is fixed I'll give more stars.

Muy útil para aprender vocabulario

Emoine on

Very useful to improve your vocabulary, for pleasure or studies

Buena pero

Great but it could improve with more slang, adding how frequent is a word and with lists for foreigners.
