Ratings and reviews

Do not recommend. "There was an error uploading the database." The sign of the day is shown, but I'm not told the meaning. I tried to sign up for the word of the day but the email sign up is broken. I can see the alphabet/ numbers tab, but the topics tab is broken as I can't get it to select and search for the word I typed. Also missing is the game portion of the app. Seems like it might not be maintained anymore.

I guess this app was abandoned a while ago... I redownloaded and the dictionary won't even load. After a second of "retrieving data" it says "ERROR there was a problem retrieving data." Every. Time. No matter if I'm on wifi or data. I still get the sign of the day emails though?? Years ago when I used it, it was very handy. If they would restore the app I would still use it.

Every time I booted up the app, I kept getting an error message saying "there was an error loading the database". None of the videos, vocabulary, lessons, etc will load. Rebooting and reinstalling the app didn't fit the problem. With how much I enjoyed using the website and how excited I was about doing the lessons on mobile, this was really disappointing :(
