Not a “Dictionary”…

If you’re looking to be able to browse through words, this isn’t going to help you unless you know exactly which term you’re looking for. Not much help for anyone who wants to just browse and learn some new things.
Perhaps the title and description could be worded better to outline this to prevent users from downloading it and deleted?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. While you would need to look up a term to get started, you might be interested in the "Mentioned in" box that appears on the bottom of dictionary pages, as it gives you a list of other engineering pages to potentially browse.

Only for confirming what you already know?

I’m not sure if I’m missing something, but this isn’t a dictionary, just a search box reading entries from unknown third party databases. It may or may not give you some info about a search term you already know, but you can’t use it like a dictionary, to browse or learn, or find related items other than the very few tossed into the databases.

Response from developer

Yes, our Engineering app is a searchable database of terms. Each entry has its dictionary source listed under it, next to the blue "CITE" link.

Informative

Informative but lacks drawings. Need more draining please. Also opening in the browser than within the app. Why does it do this?

Add some languages

I really appreciate the work you guys have done to build this app. I would like to know if you guys can help people who speak French and Spanish to have access to this app. It’s fantastic and I really appreciate the job. Please help the French and Spanish community to use this app.
