### 1/5 — Total Failure

*2021-08-19*

I used the Vocab trainer 1. I had my personal dictionary filled with hundreds of words. It served perfectly my needs. Then I was forced to upgrade to Vocab trainer 2. Now in this new version I cant find a way to import my personal dictionary from the previous version. Years of work just relinquished. Two inquires to the developer remain unanswered for weeks now. Extremely disappointing.

### 1/5 — Alte App entsperren

*2021-08-17*

Hallo Bitte die alte app entsperren. Mit der Neuen kann ich nichts anfangen. Ich habe dort meine ganzen selbst angelegten Vokabeln. Die möchte ich weiter üben auf die alte Art. Den ersten Buchstaben anzeigen und dann alle möglichen Buchstaben aufdecken, hat die App für mich zum besten Vokabeltrainer gemacht. Mal abgesehen davon, dass ich nicht selbst bestimmen konnte wieviel ich lernen möchte. Ich verstehe den Sinn der neuen App nicht! Die ist überhaupt nicht zu gebrauchen! Beste Grüße Maik

### 1/5 — Complete garbage

*2021-07-17*

What are they thinking? The old version was clear and to the point, the best vocabulary trainer in the App Store hands down. Basic features were free, the additional purchases worthwhile and well integrated. The new version on the other hand is all over the place. The UI is so inconsistent that I’m really wondering whether this is the work of a professional (I hope it’s not) or if somebody on the project did it on the fly. And what is it with the graphics and animations? Does Oxford think I’m some sort of imbecile? The *basic dictionary* is a paid feature now! What am I even going to use this app for without paying? Apart from that the migration process didn’t even migrate my custom vocabulary list. But that’s not too much of a problem, since I’m going to switch from this abomination anyway.

### 1/5 — Dommage

*2023-10-18*

Je l’ai connu il y a très longtemps, c’était mon application favorite qu’il n’a permis d’évoluer en anglais. J’avais également acheter des books une dizaine d’euros. Puis un jour une nouvelle mise à jour et impossible de s’inscrire ni se connecter. C’est réservé à une catégorie de personne. Dommage

### 1/5 — Frustrating garbage

*2023-04-25*

I hate this app. First, English is not available as an interface language. That means my ESL students whose native language is not in the set of provided interface languages (for example, Farsi) can’t use the OVT app at all and I as a basically monolingual ESL teacher can’t demonstrate the app to my students. It is ridiculous not to provide English as an interface option in an English learning tool. 

Second, this app is useless for adding additional words (not in the built-in course) unless you Jane an English dictionary in which to find them. But an English dictionary is not loaded by default. When I try to add one by clicking on “add languages” in dictionary mode (using the French interface because there’s no English interface), it just prompts: Enregistrer (Register). Then when I click the Register link, nothing happens. 

I have wasted many hours trying to solve this problem. I’ve emailed support and gotten a long-winded boilerplate reply showing elaborate steps that that don’t work because I CANT GET THE ENGLISH DICTIONARY TO LOAD.

### 1/5 — Achtung! App Zugang ist schwierig!

*2023-03-14*

Nicht mit jedem neuen Oxford English Teaching book Access Code ist der Zugang möglich. Mann sollte es vorher beim Verlag erfragen. Auch wenn die App auf dem Cover beworben wird, heißt es nicht, dass man so einfach Zugang bekommt.

### 1/5 — Sign In Problems

*2022-04-12, version 1.1.2*

You may download it but can’t create an account. Because clever software developers forgot to ad “Sign In” option. Software wants you to register, but not allow you to create account. I feel like a dog that chasing its own tail. Please revise this stu.id fault. 

PS: I tried to send a mail. But it can’t be delivered. Please solve the problem. Release a proper update!

*2022-01-25*

Guten Tag, ich wollte gerade in die App und meine gekauften Pakete nutzen, aber jetzt handelt es sich um eine neue App Vocab Trainer 2 und meine Nutzerdaten sind nicht mehr gültig. Es gibt auch keine Kontaktadresse oder Hilfe. Was ist zu tun?

### 1/5 — Abonnement des alten Vocab Trainers lief einfach weiter

*2022-01-19*

Mein Abonnement des alten Vocab Trainers lief einfach weiter ohne das ich Zugriff auf meine Vokabeln hatte. Des Weiteren besitzte ich jetzt nicht einmal mehr Zugriff auf die neue App, da ich kein Code besitze. Eine Frechheit

### 5/5 — Help

*2023-08-24, version 2.0.0*

Is there a way to get the app? I am not registered in Oxford, but the first version was useful to me. Please help

### 5/5 — Increíble

*2023-05-11*

### 5/5 — Add course Advanced

*2022-03-15, version 1.0.0*

Please

### 5/5 — I can’t sign up, why?

*2021-09-18, version 1.0.0*

There is no option for signing a new account

### 4/5 — Oxford Vocabulary Trainer 2

*2021-08-25*

I am finding the above App very beneficial and easy to use. I would give it a 5 however, the text used in the sentences when explaining the meaning of a word is tiny and hard to read. Is it possible to to give the user an option to enlarge this text? Otherwise, the text size throughout the other sections of the App by contrast is very large. I am happy with that!

There is a dictionary feature within the App that enables you to add additional words you wish to study. It says that it is free to try for a period then you have to subscribe. I can’t get it to work to try it out nor can I find out how much it would cost if I wanted to add this feature.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your review, we are glad to hear that you are enjoying the new app. We will pass your feedback on to developer. Best wishes, the OEVT team.

### 3/5 — I lost my everything saved in vovan trainer 1

*2025-01-22*

this map released the second version and deleted all informations and words saved in vocab trainer 1 and there's no way offered to help move them to vocab trainer 2, which is insane. the team creating this app at the very beginning didn't even take "taking users' info and efforts" seriously

### 3/5 — English File 4e

*2021-09-29*

Die App ist grundsätzlich nicht schlecht, könnte man sie nicht auf den neuesten Stand bringen? Das wäre ein Vorteil, da mit der neuen Edition bereits gearbeitet wird in den Kursen.
Bitte aufrüsten auf English file 4 e!

### 2/5 — It is useless

*2022-04-05*

Why on earth did you remove “Vocab Trainer” from the App Store?!!! and replaced with “Vocab Trainer 2”. It is useless. Just keep it as it is. ——————————————— 

An Update... Date: 05 Apr 2022 
I would like to add some notice to the new app (Vocab Trainer 2). As long as I still prefer the previous app “Vocab Trainer” in terms of design + UI + easy to use etc. Why the developer behind the app (Vocab Trainer 2) would not allow users to choose the “English” language in-app setting > profile App. So, even if English are not my first language or I am not a native speaker, the option should be there. maybe the developer only thinks about new users who are still at (Beginner Level) and prefer their first language to use. But, please also consider users who prefer to use the English language as a primary language in the app settings and leave them to decide which is better for them. I hope future updates will add the English language UI option to app settings.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear you're not enjoying our new app. Unfortunately the first edition has been retired and it will no be back. Please note that  you can send us the screenshots of the issues along with your name and username to eltdict.help@oup.com. Our Customer Support will help you. Best wishes, the OEVT team.

### 2/5 — Gostava mais do app anterior

*2021-10-16*

Agora não consigo mais colocar palavras escolhidas por mim. Saudades do app antigo 😭

### 2/5 — Not functional

*2021-09-23*

Can’t use the app properly because once I press the “choose a course” button, the text “choose a language to learn” appears, but without any language options. I therefore can’t select a course and discover new words.
