One Problem

You cannot search for ANYTHING that has more than one word. Why? If you try using one word without hitting search, you’ll often see defintions for phrases with more than one words. So why tease this if you cannot search it? This is literally the only limiting factor, get rid of this and you have a great successor to the original app (RIP).

4/5 until this is fixed.

Hey there! Thanks for this feedback, I'm not sure how this bug slipped through the cracks. I have an update coming next week that fixes this, and adds a couple small features too. Fingers crossed this solves the search issue. Thanks again :)

Looks Modern, Lacks Basics

I love the look and feel of this app. It makes Urban Dictionary feel native on iOS while staying true to the UD design. However, there are a few major flaws to this app. Firstly, inserting a space breaks the search, so you cannot search for multiple words. Second, there is no way to see a scrolling list of definitions for the same word like on UD, so you must click each definition individually and swipe back constantly. Third, there is no way to vote (👍/👎) on words, which means I cannot participate in improving the site. If these three things were fixed, this would be the best UD client for iOS. However, I’ll have to go back to the default UD app for now, since these features are critical to me.

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it! All these concerns have been addressed in an upcoming update that should arrive next week at the latest. Hopefully you can revise your review if the update fixes the issues you were experiencing. Thanks again :)

Great interface but the search is broken

Probably the only app to access UD that looks modern. However when your search contains multiple words, it doesn't work.

Useless

The simplest of searches don’t work. Go to scribble your search and the app just takes you back to the Home Screen. Looked for support and it’s a DM to Twitter. I’ve been waiting for a few days now and no reply. I wouldn’t mind if I had a courtesy message telling me there was a back log but nothing. Bit like the App.

KNOCK OFF!!!

You have to instantly buy something to discover anything about it. Absolutely garbage app and is nothing compared to Urban Dictionary. At all!

The main app is for the Apple Watch, not iOS. The iOS app is design to work alongside the Apple Watch app, and most of its functionality is a part of an In-App Purchase. Hope this clears things up for you.
