I am such a fan of the M-W website. This app is less than rudimentary. Big disappointment.

I'm dissapointed. This app does the name injustice. I'm sorry I paid money for the full version. There's need for an unabridged version.

I don't like the voice. Wish I could change it to something less harsh sounding.
