Ratings and Reviews
Helping a Newbie Understand
I often use the app in order to help me understand the scientific lingo I encounter whenever I read anything scientific-related. The only downside is that trying to understand a term, another difficult term is embedded in the definition, which soon prompts me to look up the new term (can you say, focus?).
💩💩💩💩💩 Refused to Close with Nag Screen Open ‼️
I purchased this app to answer a specific question several days ago. This morning, when I open multitasking to do some housekeeping, the app refused to be swiped closed, so I opened it, and found a “Five Star Rating” nag screen. The only logical, and appropriate, response to such arrogant software behavior, is a five poo rating‼️

PS; While I can’t speak for my British English speaking brethren, elsewhere in the world. North American English speakers expect a “Word of the day” dialog box, to be labeled “Word of the day”. And not; “The word to learn today”! Honestly the dialog boxes for Digital English Dictionary Products, should not read like they were Coded by Someone Who Learned English, Listening to the Narration of Films, Found Under a Hatch, on a Pacific Island!
Really good but bothersome until I give a reviewe
Has has been a really good product which I’ve have used for several years. Only a few words it didn’t have in the data base. I’m taking a star off simply for it constantly asking for a review of the product. I don’t like give reviews but there isn’t a button to dismiss the review request and that is extremely annoying!! If I wanted to give a review then I would. Actually because they have annoyed me so much I’ll knock it down to two stars take that!!!!
