The dictionary works, but it's many of glitches. When I downloaded the offline content, the notification made my phone go crazy. It activated the notification sound for every second of the download. I hoped it stopped when the donwload had completed but didn't happen so I had to restart the phone. Performance should be checked as android complains of too much battery usage for this app because of background activity (which I don't expect from a dictionary) Other than that, the app is fine.

Reasonable dictionary, but the older, (Dio-Dict 3) version that comes free with Samsung phones is much better. This has a smaller vocabulary & no examples. It looks glitzier, but I'd prefer content over cosmetics any day. The few features this one has (share & auto-translate clipboard entries) are off little use. Disappointing, especially at the price. Considering the Samsung version is not only free but superior, I feel a little cheated.

Well, for a long time I had a reliable German dictionary app that I could use when I wanted to. All of a sudden, I have an annoying button that shows up on my phone screen when I am using other apps. It gets in the way and hijacks my attention. How do I turn this off? Notifications were already disabled.
