## Review summary

User feedback is mixed. Many users praise the app as an invaluable, convenient dictionary that supports daily vocabulary growth and works nicely when used alongside other apps. However, reliability is the dominant issue, with frequent crashes and failed lookups reported across several reviews. The online-only nature and regressions after updates are recurring pain points, along with missing pronunciation (IPA) and limited examples. Overall, it’s great when it works, but frequent failures and feature gaps significantly hinder reliability.

### Pros

- Invaluable and convenient resource for vocabulary expansion.
- Works well and integrates smoothly when reading in other apps.
- Simple, fast lookup with lightweight, unobtrusive ads.
- Supports daily word learning and ongoing vocabulary growth.

### Cons

- Frequent reliability failures: the app stops working or cannot find words across multiple reviews.
- Online-only lookup can cause failures and limits offline use.
- Update and install regressions: new versions sometimes worsen performance or break functionality.
- Missing pronunciation details and limited examples: IPA pronunciations are absent and sample usage is sparse.
