Ratings and Reviews
Great, the new apps are improving
The recordings and database are excellent, but the app is really hard to use - pasting into the search box always takes multiple attempts on my iPad Pro, and it's then impossible to edit that input easily - for example to capitalise an initial letter of a term I have to delete the whole term and type again, rather than being able to place the cursor in the desired position. It also now spends seconds pointlessly pre-loading a load of words I have no interest in every time I open the app.
No pronunciations when offline
I paid and downloaded this app in hope that it would let you download pronunciations so that you would work offline like when you are on the plane. I may as well just use the website as normal instead of having to pay to use this app! I suppose I am supporting the company with my contribution but it would be nice if we could download the pronunciations in the language/s that we wish

Please please please remove the banner asking “do you want to search for a new pronunciation in another language” . It takes up a big chunk of the phone screen and I have never needed to use it.
Developer Response ,
I understand your point, we are currently redesigning that button. Best!
