Buggy
Don’t bother enabling the copy from clipboard feature. It doesn’t even work.
My default dictionary app 👌🏼love love love it heart
It’s a must have for ESL students! I hope they continue to update and keep this app because it’s fantastic and a game changer for me personally.
Very good application
I have been using this app (German vocabulary book) for 18 months. I like it because it is easy to use and also useful. It is also good, that I can mark some words and change size or color of words .
Love the content, wish the search was better
I use this app a ton.
I especially like using it to search multiple dictionaries for example sentences. Sometimes when I’m working on understanding not just a word but a phrase or piece of grammar, it is really useful to punch in a short part of the phrase and use the example search mode so I can see how it is used in sentences. I’ve bought way more dictionaries than I would need for just looking up words, so that I have lots of example sentences to look at.
The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is sometimes the search is difficult to use and the latest app update made it even harder. In a game I am playing I encountered the phrase 私としたことが…とんだ失態だ… I wasn’t familiar with 私としたことが so I tried searching examples for としたことが. Only one result came up, and I checked all 3 types (starts with, ends with, equals) to be sure. This is cumbersome, by the way! I used to check all three by mashing the button, but now I have to tap into the menu and then select the search mode one at a time. Then, I changed my search to 私としたことが. Suddenly, there were lots of example results! Why did I have to type something more specific to get more results? I am sure it is something to do with the way the sentences are tokenized but as a user it is very unpredictable.
Similarly I often do not know if searching “starts with” or “ends with” is more likely to turn up results for the phrase I am searching, so I just want to search all at once but can’t, and now those options are buried in a menu making it even more difficult to quickly check. Please improve the search feature, I have spent a lot on dictionaries and I don’t regret it but I truly wish it was easier to use the search function. お願いします🙏

My favourite app on the app store
I am learning Japanese and all the dictionaries are beautiful, functional and performance is excellent. The developer is also very responsive on twitter
