Ratings and reviews

I am now editing my previous review. This app has not been working for a while now. It syncs 100% and then crashes or starts again. Also shows "network error" 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

This is not actually a review. I'm just using it as a means of contact to call your attention to the performance of your app since I don't have any other means. I have been using this app for long and it seems to be doing well and very helpful, but in the last few days, it seems inaccessible. The pages on the app are struggling to load and it keeps telling me to check my network connection. This is the same network I'm using to write this review. Please try fix the problem from your ends.

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.
