Ratings and reviews

Very useful, this way I don't lose data in constantly visiting the Perseus website. But it needs one thing to be perfect: the ability to search within an entry, as sometimes you're looking for a particular phrase, form, or expression which is buried out of sight. Please add this, et tibi gratiam habebo.

This undergrad Latin major is very grateful for a compromise between wasting time on impercise online lexicons and carrying around the two-volume OLD (or, indeed, even L&S) all the time. Thank you greatly.

THIS IS ONLY FOR ADVANCED LATIN USERS! It does not find words unless you enter the exact nominative or 1st person active. That kind of beats the purpose. If I already know the base-forms, I pretty much already know the word so why would I look it up? Philological commentary? I know this is a free app but they should really add the option to enter the conjugated / declined word so the app could tell you the lemma. Uninstalling it now.
