## Review summary

User reviews show the app is a valued, practical dictionary that has been used for years, but a broad consensus is its iOS 11 compatibility problems (not opening and content not loading) and a perceived lack of timely updates/support.

### Pros

- A long-standing, trusted Spanish dictionary that many users have relied on for years.

- Some users report that once issues were fixed, the app works on iOS 11 and remains a valuable resource when functional.

### Cons

- Major compatibility issues on iOS 11: the app often won’t open or load correctly.
- After updates, the dictionary content may not be accessible, with only headwords visible or the app crashing.
