Ratings and reviews

An excellent and fantastic app. The best Yoruba dictionary I've ever come across. However, I gave it a 3 ⭐ because it shuts down abruptly every single time I opened to use it. If the developer can fix this issue, a 5 ⭐ is certain from me.

Good app. Would rate it a five if: - Each word in the yoruba example sentences were hyperlinked to their corresponding definition. (This will allow users to easily access the meanings of individual words and enhance our understanding) - One could see their search history in the dictionary. - The example texts in yoruba could be copied

Awesome app. The pronunciation sounds native and the transcription helps pronounce effectively. The developers did a great job with this app
