excellent！
searching word or phrase is most convenient than any other dictionary, including Oxford and Mariam -Webster dictionary, especially, the function of clear search field is so excellent．
Perfect
I wanted to be able to look up a word, get the meaning, be able to see both antonyms and synonyms, see examples of usage and as a bonus see the origins succinctly, with the ability to search easily and have the answers quickly and clearly. It performs all this without a hitch. Perfect for my uses!
WARNING about this developer
I bought an excellent Collins Spanish Dictionary that had exactly the same interface as this English dictionary. When I replaced my iPad and tried to access the app on my new iPad, I got an error saying the app was "currently unavailable in your App Store." I contacted Apple for help and got nowhere. This is totally unacceptable for a dictionary app. Harper Collins should have given some thought to existing users. And SHAME on Apple for not standing by us and making sure that apps remain available to users who buy them. I'm totally disgusted after this experience. No wonder people don't want to pay for dictionary apps. It's really the worst kind of customer service, and it's about more than the money when it would be so easy for Apple to provide the app to people who paid for it.

Excellent dictionary and thesaurus
This is an excellent and very comprehensive dictionary and thesaurus.
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 ☺️
