### 3/5 — Great format, buggy performance

*2025-04-01*

I love that this app has separated out the references from the definitions, making it super easy to find the part of the definition that you need. The search bar does not show a cursor, and the drop down list does not go away when you choose an option. 
Developer, please fix these bugs since this was a paid app.

### 4/5 — Works well

*2023-05-09*

Works just fine on my IPhone 13. You need to set the display to “light mode” as dark mode makes the text disappear.

Otherwise very in depth information and useful for learning. Though I would recommend other apps for beginners as it’s mostly tools for people already on their journey.

### 3/5 — I would love to love it but...

*2019-09-09*

When I try to search a word with my iphone xr, the first two lines of result gets pulled up and won’t show unless I pull down the list (but I cant select the line while im pulling it down). I basically then have to search the word manually, which is a pain if im searching multiple words. Beginning to think if this was a waste of my two bucks. 3 stars bc it Works fine with ipad😢

### 4/5 — Almost really useful

*2019-03-07*

The content is great. But there seems to be a bug preventing the top (or only) search result from being clickable on iPhone XR. The search bar interferes.

### 1/5 — Latin dictionary

*2016-11-01*

Will not work at all on my   Iphone 5
