Ratings and Reviews
Only one issue 😢
Content is great but I’m facing one annoying issue in the app. When we type and search a word and then next time come back to search another word, the previous word is there and we have to delete it manually. That really annoys all of the time.
I know there’s an option in setting to delete the word but when we enable that option, the app becomes eager to delete the word and it deletes the word even when we move to another app for some reference and it annoys too when you are working on two apps at the same time and it deletes your word every time you move to another app 😢
Apart from this issue, the content and search filters are great and also it’s offline so it works smoothly and quickly. I have been using Look up app before Collins. But look up is online so it takes a little time to show meaning and also look up lacks powerful search filter.
Overall you won’t regret buying Collins app and also paying for learning and self improvement always worth it.
I hope developers would work on my shared issue and make it a more easy to use app. Thanks ☺️
Ideal
I feel that I am fortunate to get this kind. In addition to it I have few dictionaries- i.e. Oxford,American Heritage, Merriam Webster, Cambridge.This and American Heritage are superb.
wonderful
