谢谢!

之前一直用极光词典,自从它下架之后,再也没有找到类似的替代,希望晴空词典也可以增加调用本地词典的功能,方便进行快速搜索。(ps:目前手机深色模式时,部分界面显示会有点小问题)

Genius

The ability to swipe and quickly glance at the meanings of the same word in several dictionaries at once is terrific. I use this virtually every day! Coming to the gripes. This app isn’t Mac compatible which is such a let down. Secondly, several dictionary pages like Merriam Webster and Dictionary.com never show up in the app anymore. The lines just appear blank. Thirdly, as the other user commented, a word history section would be terrific to have. I just wish they continue to maintain this app.

Needs an Update

Love it! Lots of excellent dictionaries in one pack. Keep on good work! A collocation dictionary would make a great addition to the package. Also, it’s been three years and without an update bugs and glitches begin to develop (for Instance, some dictionaries reload continuously)
