I like the immediate respond It will take longer to look for the dictionary

This app is tremendously convenient to look up or clarify a definition with the same instrument at hand.

Okay, One Feature Missing

…the ability to create your own lists. Is this in the Pro Version? It wasn’t listed as a feature so I did not purchase it.

Also, the very first word I looked up, “salet,” had no entry, so the dictionary needs expanding.
