Ratings and reviews

This app is convenient, but not always. While it does show the word meaning in notification, several times it just cuts off mid-sentence or shows a part of the sentence from which you can't understand the meaning. I use another dictionary app that provides the same meaning (both the apps get the meanings from Wiktionary) so I know it's not showing the full sentence. Also, it gets complicated when a word has multiple meanings and I have to search further to know the exact meaning I'm looking for.

It superb. Just for the read aloud option, it would be great if it would just pronounce the word and not also the whole meaning. Or at least there was an option to make those changes.

After updating the app the 'read aloud' voice has changed from a UK male to a US female. How can I change this back? EDIT: Reinstall sorted the issue. Many thanks.
