Worst app ever!!!!

I want my money back. Even a purchased version this app has limited words. Don’t even have "simple word". I wish I haven’t downloaded this app in the first place. Waste of money and nothing.

We're sorry that you're disappointed by the app. The Oxford Learner's Dictionary of Academic English focuses exclusively on academic English. It is designed to help non-native English speakers studying academic subjects in English to understand academic texts and to improve their own academic writing. If you would like a refund, please contact Apple. Our most comprehensive, and more general, learner's dictionary is the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary.
