The app totally blanked out, fix it.

Actually it’s easy and convenient to use unless you want to listen to pronunciations. I paid for listening to pronunciation of words but the quality of all recorded sounds are outrageously blurry and poor. If you wanna make people pay for your service, at least your service must be done well enough to deserve that money. And by the way, the app totally blanked out recently. I find another reason to regret again.

Hi,Thanks for rating our app. The Audio Pronunciation database is provided to us externally. We are looking into a way to improve the feature in future updates. The better the quality of the sound, the more internet data and device storage it requires therefore the improvement is not simple as we need to avoid the dictionary content from bloating.Please contact us for the "blanking" issue at dictionaries-ios@mobisystems.com - MobiSystems Support Team -

To hear the pronunciation

Hi,This is a very useful app, but I have question.I have one iPhone and and an IPad, and the two devices share the same iCloud account. I paid for the advanced functions, such as pronunciation. But I can only use it on my iPhone, not on my iPad.I am wondering if there is any limitation that the advanced function could be only used on one App.
