### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-11-18, version 1.1.0*

Some of the words meanings just have a ? Or a ⚫️. Also when you type ng you get broken words with wrong or missing pronunciations. Such as 嗯 which is pronunciationed Eng not ng or ? . Please fix

好棒！

### 1/5 — Live The App, poor Screen Design

*2022-06-09, version 1.1.0*

The App ist great, but using it is cumbersome.
1. If you want to tap the break button, it is so high in the screen on my iPhone 13pro, that you can not hit the back button. It takes usually up to 10 trys to hit it. The area is reserved for app setting like go back to recent app. Poor screen design needs an update.

2. To search a new word you always have to go back three steps, you can not host search a new word. It is faster to force quit the app and then reopen to make a new search.

3. There is no history of my searches. So if you want to look up things you recently used? You will not find it. So i might not find that same information again ever.
