Useless free version

I bought couple of dictionary apps (idioms and PhrasalVerbs) from them for two digit price tag and one of them Is not even available as they don't update it for newer IOS other is hanging on thread so anyone want to buy pricey full version better be carful as they don't bother to update

Excellent content, but UX can improve

The content of the dictionary is great, it's perfect. All words include UK and American pronunciation, with both the International Phonetic Alphabet transcription and audio recordings, and words include derived words and conjugations. Extremely useful.

The UX can be better, though. The app hasn't been updated to the latest iPhones, so it appears in compatibility mode with black bars top and bottom of the screen.

When you are inside the definition of a word, it requires two uncomfortable taps to start a new search:
1. tapping the back button in the top left corner, far away from the keyboard, and then
2. tapping the search clear button, which is also far away from the keyboard
It would be great if there was one button to start a new search from the word definition page.

Disappointed

Unable to access dictionary I paid for a few weeks ago. Couldn't understand why but previous reviewer gives the answer: dictionary not available after updating phone
