Ratings and reviews

As a student of Persian I was happy at first to have found an app which shows the pronunciation of Persian words. But then I found out that in many (if not most) of the entries the pronunciation was simply incorrect! That's a great pity, because otherwise the app looked nice. (It would be cool though, if there were example sentences for the Persian-English part too.)

Been using this app for more than a decade now, of course, it is good, it is very comprehensive, but it frustrates you so deeply every time you have to reinstall it for some reason, the downloading database part is painfully slow, and unresponsive

I like this version of the app. Only thing is that when I open the app it sort of refreshes the page and the keyboard disappears, making me click on the text bar again.

What's new

Version 4.1 fixes the issue with Android 13.
There are also minor changes to the user interface.
