Used to be great

Broken on OS26

Great Dictionary

I've been using it for 5 years, and find it much handier, with a better inventory of phrases, idioms, and general information. The newest update gives it a nicer interface, easier to read. It's in the cloud, so my inputs are shared on all devices.

An excellent Chinese dictionary

Not only good definitions and clear presentation, but also useful features like stroke order.
