    I used to love this app!! Now whenever I open it it’s an ad or it’s trying to sell me an upgrade. I am moving on
  • Useful but way too many ads

    As is the title. Not just a bottom bar ad but also an ad between every successive word searched in a given session that takes up the entire window, holding you hostage until you either wait 5 seconds for a close button to even appear, or you close and reopen the app.

    When I go online and ask for a dictionary I DO NOT EXPECT TO GET AN APP. Forget it. I don’t want your dictionary. BUT I love you anyway.
