## Review summary

Lemma is valued for its thorough Danish-English translations and examples, making it a useful learning tool. However, multiple users report frequent crashes, freezes, and persistent logout issues, severely hindering usability. Login problems prevent some from even starting the app. Several users are dissatisfied with the subscription model and missing Android features like browsing history and search. While the iOS version is praised, the Android app requires improvements to stability, functionality, and pricing flexibility.

- Very practical for Danish-English and vice versa with lots of detailed examples and contextual translations.
- Useful tool for learning Danish and translations between Danish and English.
- Great features brought from the website to the app.
- Convenient and easy to use when it works properly.

### Cons

- App repeatedly logs users out, causing inconvenience.
- App crashes and freezes frequently, requiring restarts to use.
- Subscription pricing is inflexible and expensive, forcing some users to seek alternatives.
- Login errors and issues prevent users from accessing the app.
- Lack of basic features on Android such as browsing history, search function, and multi-dictionary selection.
