ALMOST Perfect Dictionary! With speech recognition look up, spoken pronunciations, inter-definition lookup, this ad free dictionary is well worth the money. BUT since the last "update," on my phone--which has the basic version permanently installed--the "Pro" icon often opens the basic version by mistake. WTF! This should be fixed.

Could use more words A good percentage of the words I enter aren't found and I end up having to get the definition online.

No thesaurus? The dictionary is great but how does a paid dictionary app not include a thesaurus? What a joke!!

Over all Over all, very happy with my purchase. Love the daily words..wish you could check the previous ones, though. A wigit (?) Will be appreciated by everyone and I for one would appreciate the medical dictionary being available... it is available online after all. Make a list of the prior daily words,make it so you can go back and forth during a search, introduce wigits (?) , a make a medical dictionary available...
