I have benefited most from two features. Audio pronunciation which is an integral part. Another feature that is wonderful is the "word of the day" that keeps one in the learning mode. The dictionary readily provides the use of a word in a sentence and this feature allows the reader to comprehend the deeper meanings of a word in different contexts. I always enjoys learning different usages of a word. The new format of the Dictionary is highly appreciative as it gives a choice of setting up ones favourite words and to view them all when one wants.I may add that the newer version is far more educative and allows one to mark ones favourite words. This facility in the Dictionary permits one to recall those words while writing a beautiful composition. It is the right words in a sentence that make the sentence beautiful. I wholeheartedly congratulate the editors who are taking the torch of knowledge forward with all adorable efforts that this Dictionary enlightens its users. The additionally available Thesaurus is a precious addition. Congratulations and the additions to Dictionary from time to time deserve high appreciation from us.

It is very handy to have this dictionary, it helps me how to pronounce a word with voice quickly even offline ( no internet). Sometimes it helps me when I know the meaning and usage but don’t know the spelling , and of course synonyms of the words. Also navigating from one word to other and come back to the original word is easy.

Updates mess up previously saved favorites

I don’t understand why the updates mess up the favorites section. It has happened before too. A previous update wiped my entire list of favorites and this time though my list is intact, it shows me a stupid message “This definition no longer exists in Oxford word datebase” for so many of the words when I try to access them from my favorites (Though not for all the words in my favorites). Please fix this. Otherwise what is the use of favorites huh?

Well its undoubtedly the most reliable source but whats the point when this is not designed to meet customers requirement. By now i have tried to purchase premium subscription not less than 20-25 times and trust me no matter how cool my head is before i start this TASK after seeing “please wait” for so long my patience goes for a toss and i end up getting frustrated and cursing developers for this awful job. Kindly provide me with steps to subscribe premium membership as i desperately need it. If its a glitch in software then update and fix it so that users can subscribe without facing so much of trouble. Your cooperation will be much appreciated thanks and good luck.
