Reviews
"Its advantage for learners is that every definition is written using words from a basic list of most-used words: the "Oxford 3000" list of important words. The reviewers who complain about it not defining certain words have unwarranted expectations that this is supposed to be a normal dictionary that tries to have every word in the English language."
"I use this app quite often!"
"This is the best dictionary app I have ever used. It has every word I have searched for."
"A great app to help kids and adults to learn new words and their meanings."
"Indeed it's directed to advanced learners."
"It is not the American Heritage, but will suffice for occasional use."
"Also when you want to install the databases, it gives you the option to install into phone memory or SD card, but it does not matter what you choose, it will install on phone memory and fill the phone memory and I usually end up deleting the app."
