Stops working and ask for more money!!

I purchased the Cambridge advanced learners dictionary about 6 years ago but in the recent updates of iOS it has not been working. Now I see they have released a new version compatible with the new iOS and asking for money again. This is not right. I have paid for this product once and have the rights to at least have my old version running. If you decide to kill the old one, you need to make the update freely available for the old users, like all other app developers. No morals.

Great dictionary

The content and the definitions are great but the app has room for improvement. Going back doesn’t work with iOS back gesture which makes it a hassle to have to tap on the back button which is far far away from the tip of your thumb. It’s also not quick to get back to the search box once you are in the definition page. Tapping on the pronunciation button doesn’t always pronounce the word and instantly selects the text! But apparent from these the app has a way to restore the purchase and once you paid you don’t have to pay again unlike some reviews stated.

If I could I’d give a 0

The app itself is really nice and works fine. But if something goes wrong, don’t expect help. I bought a new iphone and wanted to transfer this app from my old iphone. It never transfers. All apps did transfer no problem and this one did not. The customer service takes forever to reply and when they do they simply want you to buy the app again.

Go to competitor app - the Oxford one, that one works perfectly.
