Paul Liu Longman dictionary is great. This android app sucks! Not worth it at all. Buy the iOS one instead, worth every penny of it.

Far behind iOS app I had used LDOCE of iOS with iPhone and now I am using it with iPad. It's very disappointing for not supporting several key features such as word suggestion, picture expression, plural searching(typing 'cherubim', iOS app shows 'cherub' which is singular form of 'cherubim' in result where Android app does not show anything) and an option for saving whole pronunciation audio files(iOS app includes whole audio files basically but Android app downloads each audio file every single time pronunciation demanded).
