I would not suggest this dictionary unless you care to know conjugation.

I mean, who a heck cares about conjugations of English verbs? In French, for instance, this feature is very helpful to many because there are many irregular conjugations; however, it is absolutely worthless in English. (They must've just copied and pasted the interface from French dictionary they also offer. That's why the button reads -ir.) I expect them to remove this feature and add example sentences or auto- correction as you type, just to make this app worth the 25 bucks. Their customer service doesn't reply questions, which is the worst of all. Other than that, this app is okay. Very nice interface.

Well done!

Rich selection of words, lots of biographical entries, related words and phrases grouped with the initial lookup. You can tap on a word in a definition to look up that word, then backup, view history, or keep tapping on words till the itch is scratched. After working with it some more, I may end up downgrading my evaluation of some other dictionary apps. Not as fast as WordBook, and definitely a lot more expensive, but it does provide quite a bit of extra value.
