### 4/5 — Comment

*2023-11-21, version 10.0.11*

It would be nice to have the words spoken. My German Collins dictionary has an audio so you can hear the words.

     It would be nice to have more specific words.  I looked up sugars and found the Greek word for sugar but only one word for a specific type of sugar, namely glucose.  Other common sugars like fructose and lactose were not included.

### 2/5 — Asks you to rate app whenever you open it

*2023-06-08, version 10.0.11*

Frustrating to use. Often the word of the day notification doesn’t match the actual app.

### 4/5 — ㅇㅇ

*2023-01-19*

리뷰하라고 팝업 끊임없이 나와서 함 그만 귀찮게 하삼

### 2/5 — No good for learning Greek

*2022-06-26, version 10.0.11*

The functionality of the app is ok, but the dictionary content is poor on the Greek to English side: for instance, examples and definitions are eccentric if not haphazard; the gender of a noun is not given, nor the conjugation; the different stems of verbs are not given, let alone their full conjugation; and most of the Greek grammatical abbreviations remain undefined anywhere in the app.

### 5/5 — GCS

*2022-04-16, version 10.0.11*

Great app. Love the daily vocabulary.

### 4/5 — Suggested improvements

*2022-02-19, version 10.0.11*

Flash cards by custom topic, for instance body parts, food or I don’t know, nautical.

### 4/5 — It would be more practical

*2021-12-25, version 10.0.11*

Very useful if you are learning Greek. Though, it would be more practical if the app allowed the user to cut and paste into other apps like texting and translate.

### 4/5 — Keep the updates coming

*2021-12-17, version 10.0.11*

This app is great for the most basic of translations. And it gets better with each update.

### 5/5 — Greek dictionary

*2021-09-03, version 10.0.11*

I would be lost without it.

### 2/5 — Much more work !

*2021-04-15*

Much more work is required from such a famous name in dictionaries : examples without their translation, translations without the example ! Wrong translations (of another example ?)... Unacceptable approximations ! Proof read your work !!!

### 4/5 — I like it very much. Takes some getting used to.

*2021-02-01, version 10.0.11*

I’d like it even better of the navigation were a bit smoother, and there were more words included in definitions traceable through the dictionary.
Would be good, too, to have verb tenses and moods included for verbs listed.
What I’ve had to get used to is what seems to me to be a bit eccentric when it comes to language dictionaries: the meaning and use of words in English are presented in Greek, and vice versa. As I am learning Greek, I would, of course, prefer a primarily English-based presentation of the Greek meanings and uses of English words.  Having said that, I have found that some of this enforced Greek has advanced my learning of the language.
Still, I am finding this well worth the money ( I like the daily ‘new word’, though these are often weirdly esoteric, and the date of each new word doesn’t update correctly.)

### 5/5 — Excellent - my go to place

*2021-01-11, version 10.0.11*

Living as I do between 2 places dear to my heart, I often turn to this to bring one world to the other.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-04-30*

Very useful and stable app. I like the favorite and share function. I use them to save the words I wish to learn.

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-04-27, version 10.0.11*

Very good dictionary.

### 5/5 — Greek Lesson

*2020-02-10, version 10.0.11*

I use this App most weeks as I attempt to learn Greek and it fulfils most of my needs.  I find the examples of the various uses of words particularly helpful.

### 5/5 — Excellent source

*2020-01-30, version 10.0.11*

Useful app

### 3/5 — Why doesn’t it link with Kindle?

*2019-10-24, version 10.0.11*

Why. Why can’t it link with my Kindle app or any other interactive dictionary searchers like for all the other languages. Just. Why?

Awesome dictionary regardless, but I never use it, because word reference is just as easy on my computer- which I’m forced to use because I want two apps open side by side instead of switching screens every time I want to look up a word. Why? WHYYYYYYYYYY

### 5/5 — Great little dictionary

*2019-10-22, version 10.0.11*

I used it every day!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Annoying useless push notifications

*2021-01-19*

Every day for the past two weeks it has sent me a push notification suggesting to learn THE SAME WORD, a very basic one that I already know. I really wanted to use this app to improve my Greek vocabulary but it seems that it’s no longer being maintained, and the result is this broken behaviour. I guess I could rescind the permission to send push notifications and just use it as a dictionary, but for such an expensive price they really shouldn’t ship a broken app.

### 1/5 — Needs audio

*2019-09-27, version 10.0.11*

The app needs to add an audio element where you’re able to hear the new words you are learning and know how they sound. Very critical in learning a new language. Considering the app is so expensive I expected there to be an audio element to learning language.

### 1/5 — Very poor in content and ease of use

*2019-09-06, version 10.0.11*

I would not recommend this dictionary. There are numerous omissions of words and the functionality is sporadic. It needs serious improvement.

### 1/5 — Quit begging for ratings

*2018-12-11, version 10.0.11*

Keeps nagging me to rate it. So... 1 star.

### 1/5 — Limited.

*2018-11-19, version 10.0.11*

Demands five stars, only worth one.

### 1/5 — Important feature doesn’t work

*2018-09-21, version 10.0.11*

The flash card feature of the app doesn’t work properly!!! 

I can’t believe it this was such a practical feature and when I look up the definition of the word - it gives a different card!! I can’t believe the function doesn’t work. Why have it then?

### 1/5 — Peter

*2018-01-22, version 10.0.3*

There is only one reason to buy this dictionary and that is the  poor quality of the alternatives. Inconsistent, untranslated examples, useless fuzzy search, minimal grammatical information. By comparison with Collins own French and Spanish dictionaries this is bad, amazing that Collins should lower its standards to this extent. POL

### 1/5 — Annoying marketing strategy.

*2017-01-16*

Every time you open the app and make a first search you are asked to rate the the app with five stars. It is a very annoying feature for anyone who doesn't wish to rate it,  especially not with five stars.

### 1/5 — Spoilt

*2014-11-25, version 6.1.3*

The latest update has completely spoilt this dictionary. I use it all the time and now find it very difficult to do so. The slightest miss spelling brings up no possibles, which we need when looking up Greek words as they change depending on tense and case so there is always some guesswork when looking up an unfamiliar word. Now that has become nearly impossible to do.

### 1/5 — Good product, turned bad.

*2014-11-21, version 6.1.3*

It saddens me to write badly about this dictionary. It was good, it׳s now nearly useless. No browsing. No fuzzy search. No wild card search. None of the features that used to be so good. 
Please restore these immediately. Without them this product is useless.
