    Twice in recent weeks the app became completely unusable displaying a ‘total failure’ message upon opening it. Fortunately the developers fixed that bug both times within ten days.
  • Fixed “Total Failure”

    Thank you for Fixing the total failure issue. It’s working again. Special thank you to the developers for keeping up with the changes required to maintain the app. This is still the best dictionary in the App Store.

    As other reviewers have experienced, I paid in full but app crashes with “Total Failure” error message and is unusable.
  • App displays “Total Failure” and opens the App Store for some reason.

    I paid $25 for this app, and now for some reason, it is completely unusable on new iPad Mini with iPadOS 16.2
  • After the update - the app is wonderful again.

    After the update, I am back to rating this app A+++++. I use multiple dictionaries in my daily life as well as many app based reference books. Having these enormous books at my fingertips in a portable device is a real help. There’s nothing more satisfying than to find ALL the information I need without hauling out weighty tomes. Of course, the content is magnificent as anyone would expect from Oxford! Thanks very much to the developers for fixing the issues that I was having. I really appreciate the work that you have put into this app.

    This is one of the best dictionaries. But it is a bit more expensive than Longman dictionary.
