### 1/5 — 早急にアップデートして

*2022-06-22*

iPad第二世代で横向きで使用するとバグが出る
検索の文字列の上に重なって結果が出るので見えないしタッチもできない

### 1/5 — 横向きだとレイアウトがめちゃくちゃ

*2022-06-14*

長年愛用しています。
iPad Pro 12.9インチ、iOS 15.5では、横向きにするとレイアウトがめちゃくちゃで、検索結果を選択できません。
縦向きにすると表示できるのですが、横向きにすると再びレイアウトが崩れます。
Magic Keyboardを使っているので縦向きにするのは非常に煩雑です。
早く修正しいただけないでしょうか。

### 1/5 — 文字が白いで見にくい ぃぃ

*2022-06-05, version 18.2*

文字が白いで見にくい ぃぃ

### 1/5 — 文字が見えない

*2022-04-03*

文字を選択している時はグレーで
決定すると文字が白色になるので決定したら読めなくなる
結構高いお金出したのに残念です

### 1/5 — 画像解像度が低すぎて判別不能

*2022-02-04*

辞書機能は比較的便利ですが、画像を一括ダウンロード後も解像度が低く、全く意味がありません。画像一覧の方では一つも画像が閲覧できず。利用者がいない為放置なのではないかと疑います…

### 2/5 — 検索文字がみえなくなった。

*2022-01-08*

バージョンアップしてから、入力した検索文字がなぜか見えなくなり、すごく不便です。
修正お願いします

### 3/5 — ダークモードの対応をお願いします

*2021-11-21*

iPhoneをダークモードに設定すると大辞泉の検索窓の文字が白色になり、見えません。対応をお願いします。

### 1/5 — ダークモードへの対応を

*2021-10-30*

iPadをダークモードで使っていますが、検索文字など白くなって読めなくなり、使い物になりません。一刻も早くダークモードにきちんと対応してください。

### 3/5 — 他と人と同じく

*2021-10-16*

文字が半透明で使えない。

つまりこの辞書はダークモードに対応していないので、バージョンアップをしない限り購入は控えた方が良いと思う。

### 3/5 — 字が読めません。

*2021-10-15*

iPhone11で使用してますが、字が透明で読めません。
