It's good, but some words missing. The definitions are clear and it's a British dictionary, but with the more commonly used Americanisms. I like the built in audio pronunciations. Within the app, the developers will only let you give it 5 stars. If you won't, you can't rate it. This is a rather crude attempt to skew the ratings. Nevertheless, I'm happy overall.

Disappointing. After paying hefty money for the full version, ads persisted. They kept advertising other apps made by the same developer, or "sister apps" .. still they were ads. When you look up a word after verbalizing in words, you still have to tap on the actual word, which is not very convenient. i It not only doesn't offer anything special for the paid version, but it also lacks the basics. Doesn't use the word you looked up in a sentence or anything. Also narrator working very poorly.

The app itself works well enough, although the UI is a mess and it's not particularly intuitive. Further, the 30 day trial of the full version is fine, and when you start you're given the information that you can pay to access the offline version and remove ads. This is misleading. One would expect that, after 30 days, you could continue to use the app in an online only, ad-laden version. This is not the case. The app will close itself if you do not pay, and will not allow you to use it.
