Ratings and reviews

This app has been great in the past. I loved it. But right now whenever I tap on audio of a word it gives wierd electronic sound instead of actual one. I've even downgraded this app to the oldest versions but problem stays the same! Not only their German app, but English Dictionary app by Livio has the same issue, which was never the case in the past! This is very frustrating for me. Kindly do something about it. Thankyou! I'm using it on Samsung S7 Edge.

I love it! There's some translations missing, but nobody's perfect. But If I could make a suggestion about a functionality for you guys to consider implementing in later version - An arrow or something like that, which forwards the user to a word they've searched more recently in relation to the one that's displayed currently. Since having to go to the history tab and scrolling up could be tedious when I can be mindlessly hitting that nav button to the precise word. Sry for the arrogance

Most of my words are forever lost (except I was to reread a bunch of books) because for some reason, by default they limit the history to very few words. I don't know what century they live in, but extending the history to a reasonable size would take up a miniscule amount of local storage
