  • Liking the App So Far But…

    By Mr App review man
    10/18/2024: I ended up purchasing the app. I like the app. I use it rather frequently; almost multiple times a day. One thing I would like the see is that when you share a word, the presentation looks better. As of current, when I share a word, the information is all jumbled together. It’s doesn’t look to me. When we share a word, maybe use a image to tap that can link you back to the word or use a image that provides some of the definition and if you want to view the definition in full, we could tap the image and it link you to the full definition. The way the definition is shared now can look better in my opinion. I just did a free trial for the premium version of the app. I like how fast the app is. I do think some of data that’s provided is jumbled together. It says “NOUN” then provides a phrase on how to use the word then provides the synonyms. The format is jumbled. I think it should be a little space between “NOUN” and the phrase and a little space between the phrase and the synonyms. Example: NOUN “Phrase” “Synonyms” I also think $40 a year is usually high for this app. I understand that’s how people that do the updates get paid, but that price point is just too much imo. If was $40 for lifetime usage, I think that’s somewhat reasonable, but not every year. Also, I only want to use the English dictionary. I would be paying $40 for 14 dictionaries I may not ever use. I think if the pay scale was revisited, then this app may be purchased more and more subscribers. I would be willing to pay maybe up to $10 annually for the English version along w/ no ads. I would consider paying a one time fee of $40 to have ads free forever along w/ the other premium listed features. But $40 a year for 15 dictionaries (14 of them I probably won’t use anytime soon) is just too much. Other than that, thanks for your time and I enjoy the app.
  • better to have a word card in favorite to remember the words

    it would be better to add the word card function to review the words in the favorite list.
  • App unusable

    For a year I’ve been reporting to MobiSystems that this app immediately becomes slow when scrolling long entries and then freezes. They haven’t fixed it, so I’m unsubscribing. (Same on iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 16 Pro Max, and 2024 iPad Pro. They keep suggesting to reinstall the app, which does not fix the problem.)
  • Alright app

    It’s a good app. However, it comes with certain setting that require you to pay. In my opinion that quite stupid. But, it isn’t a one time pay situation. You would have to pay $4.99 a month! Which in my opinion is extremely flabbergasting. Stating that, there are many benefits to this app like the “word of the day” which I find very enjoyable and useful because not only is it something to look forward to but it is also a very educational fun fact. And that my friends is the end of my thorough and hopefully helpful review of this app. Thanks for reading bud!
  • Complete Rip-off

    when I originally spent money on this app, the thesaurus was included. That’s why I spent the money to buy it. Now to get the thesaurus, they want you to subscribe. I specifically bought the app app, spending way more than 10 bucks, for the included thesaurus. somewhere during the updates, they changed to subscription model, and render this app practically useless to me. don’t waste your money or time on this.
  • I purchased The Oxford Dictionary mobile app

    By eppharmd
    My 4 year experience using the Mobile Oxford Dictionary, has, and is, nothing but exceptional. I purchased the Oxford Dictionary as an adjunct to my Mobile Merriam-Webster. My decision bears much fruit. As an example, there is a word whose definition is available in The Oxford Dictionary, but nonexistent in Merriam-Webster. The word is , “Pantocrator”. I am pleased with this finding, as using The Oxford and Merriam-Webster dictionaries allows me to discover a depth of understanding not previously known to me. The Oxford Dictionary is affordable, comprehensive, and valuable to me. I’m pleased with my Oxford Dictionary purchase. Dr Elizabeth A Piazza, PharmD United States of America Florida

    The Oxford Dictionary is a quick way to get the definition of a word, without having to look through a dictionary. It has a great format, which is super readable and has many different colors to help with understanding what is being displayed. It also gives you different options of the word's meaning. This is also a great app for people who do not want to look for a word on Safari. Totally recommend this app!
  • Great but pricey

    I love this app but I’m paying $40 every year for a premium subscription because I hate ads. It’s essentially like buying a brand new dictionary every year. Come on
