Ratings and reviews

Used to be good. The new themes do not work well. The default theme mode does not respect system default and enable dark mode automatically and the setting's menu is always in light mode; why would you add a white gradient to dark mode!? Also, why in the world do I want you tracking what I look up? Please remove this or allow disabling history. I don't care if the stats stay local only, I don't appreciate tracking of my history.

I don't like it at all. It is not simplified. One has to spend a lot of unnecessary time searching for definitions of a word when it seems to me that if the application had a search bar where all that you would have to do is begin to type the words and as you are typing in the letters words would begin to appear in anticipation of the word/ words and either type in the rest of the letters to the word and then once the word appears tap on the word for d the definition/'s. Oran option speak a word

I really love this dictionary and the Biblical references. Thanks so much for adding an X to the search bar to make it easier to delete words before a new search. AND I love that I can copy the definitions but I wish I would be allowed to only copy a portion of a definition. . And I hope that sometime you will add an option to allow us to report an occasional typo! Thanks for making it available to us. I use it often.
