bad update

used to be very good with instantaneous results, now takes 5+ seconds for a simple search. wish i could roll it back

Langsam

Neue Version ist extrem langsam beim Suchen und bei jedem Schließen der App wird die Sprache der Suche zurückgesetzt.

Update Removed My Bookmarks With No Warning

I’m upset

Decent app

Why does sharing just copy the word? I’d prefer a link.

elegant

it has a solid interface. it does exactly what it says and nothing more. you type a word, matches are listed, you are fetched a definition. beautiful.
