User Reviews

Users consistently praise the app as a valuable, easy-to-understand resource for English learners, with clear definitions, examples, and etymology. Many see it as a strong teaching tool and a handy mobile dictionary for idioms and slang. However, recurring complaints include subscription-related ads and billing issues, a desire for more slang content, and some UI/organization drawbacks (clunky navigation and changes to categorization). Overall, the app is highly useful for learners and teachers, but improvements in billing reliability, content breadth, and UI would enhance the experience.

Pros

Clear, easy-to-understand definitions with examples.
Excellent resource for English learners (ELLs) and non-native speakers.
Helpful for teaching and classroom use.
Includes origins and etymology of idioms, providing context and roots.
Comprehensive idioms dictionary available on mobile devices for convenient use on phone or tablet.

Cons

Ads persist after subscribing and there are billing issues or confusion about purchases.
Users want more slang and idioms added to expand the content.
User interface can feel clunky and navigation could be smoother.
Content organization changed and some users miss the previous alphabetical categorization.

Recent reviews

Impossible to read text. No mechanism to correct background which text is written against.

To the developer of this application (or to whom it may concern): I paid for a subscription already and yet the ads still show up at the bottom of the screen. Then I made the same subscription purchase , and I got the info on screen: "You already paid for a subscription of thi App. Would you like to have it again for free." Is there any way to get this fixed. Thanx !
