I really love this app! But for some reason the play button right next to the search button doesn't work on my device. I tried it in other friends' devices and it worked :/ Besides, my kanji dictionary is broken for a while by now... Any kanji I draw, even a simple 一, yields "An error occurred. Please try again" when I tap on it. But setbacks apart, I really love and recommend this app to everyone! (y)
this app is ＧＲＥＡＴ！LOVE IT!
Good & practical dictionary. The sample sentences and the J-J definition are also very useful Too bad the ads (at the top of the page) are so intrusive😞
Two flaws of this app (please fix): -Glitches in J-E mode result in occasional gibberish coding when searching for a word; this seems to occur after I search a word. -Furigana cannot be searched This is a great dictionary for semi-advanced English-speakers that want to learn Japanese, and vice-versa. Example bilingual sentences are given for each word, and each meaning associated with a word. Expressions are also included in the examples. I find this very useful to understand how a word is used.
It's neat, and especially I can choose the dictionary to be Japanese to Japanese or Japanese to English. It's convenient for Japanese learner like me.
Forces close everytime I try to search. Please fix! I'm waiting for further development.
Tried inputting by kanji, kana and roumaji but it couldn't find any words. Couldn't even find "Jisho"...
No pitch accents as shown in thumbnails.
