This app is just good. However, it would have been so much better if an example sentence could be included in the meaning or each meaning of a word. Sometimes, though we know the exact meaning of a word, we, English language learners, we still struggle to use that word correctly. Think a bit about it and deal with it, maybe in a near future you'll be granted only five-star ranking.

I think it's the best dictionary ever. It consists all the phrasal verbs. Thanks for your work. Guys would you please take into account the fact that the app won't download offline content. I actually does download but unzipping process takes forever. Would you please try to recompile the unzipping process. Or maybe I am doing something wrong? Give me a response please, I will wait for it . Thanks!

Generally one of the best dictionaries I have ever used. The only problem I have is although I paid for the ad-free version, the ads still show when I run it sometimes, not every time. I tried to restore purchases and it said it succeeded, but it didn't help. Therefore I suggest not to pay for it but use it for free.
