### 3/5 — Great app

*2024-07-01, version 2.5*

I have been using this app for a while, it's not bad, although the dictionary could be updated a bit so that if I enter hieroglyphics with the hieroglyphic keyboard, it can search for words. Thanks for your attention

### 2/5 — Hieroglyphics won't show in lessons and quizzes.

*2023-10-20, version 2.4*

The lessons are well written but instead of hieroglyphics it just shows a square with a question mark in the middle. The problem doesn't present in the dictionary or palette tho.

### 3/5 — Good but has some mistakes and issues

*2022-08-16*

First of all it's great since there's nothing else for Hieroglyphics in an app version. 

However, for using as a dictionary it has several issues. 

- the Dickson dictionary is a good source, but it's not comprehensive. Adding entries from Faulkner and Rosette project would be great. 

- the MdC was confused with Gardiners code 

- would be great if the vocabulary is listed according to Gardiner order 

- search per Gardiner code(beginning with; containing) is very very useful in my experiences of consulting a dictionary for new hieroglyphics

- there are many variations of one vacabulary, adding variations forms and their origins (listed in Faulkner dictionary) would be a dream 

Over all, i wouldn't rely on it for Hieroglyphics lookups but it is quite good with great improvement room.

**Developer response:** Thanks! These are all good suggestions. But I’m not sure I understand where you think there is a confusion between MdC and the Gardinen sign list. Feel free to follow up by email if you want to.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2022-02-25*

It’s really cool and useful it’s very simple there is no other app like this one I wish I could rate it ten stars

### 5/5 — I am so grateful for this!

*2022-01-25*

I am an enthusiast about all things ancient Egypt and have been missing the hieroglyphs dictionary I had on android; this is already helping me! 
Dankeschön! Tack så mycket! Thank you! 𓋹𓍑𓋴

### 5/5 — AWESOME!

*2021-10-03*
