Really bad. I looked for the definition of 3 different words and suddenly the app stopped. I restarted the app 5 times. At the end I uninstalled it to reinstall and the app ask me to go with no ads as if I wasn't subscribed already. I payed for it and I regret doing it. I will pay three months for a really bad tool.
Great. The only downside is that it doesn't take you to the definition of a word when you hit it. (for example when you face a word that you never heard of in the examples, you have to type it yourself because the app won't get you there)
Clarity of meaning, excellent sentence construction, extraordinary word collocation and brilliant phrasal verbs present in reader-friendly manner! Engaging with Longman dictionary is a heavenly experience for a wordsmith! Being a lexicographer myself, I recommended all learners of English language to connect with this application!
Great app.but for me it will be more better when there are no ad,because the ad are making no sense.they always interrupt me when i look for the meaning of a word.so please stop the ad and let me concentrate with my study.thanks.
Not complete. The ads are annoying. Isn't worth upgrading to the paid version.
This app a very bad app. I'm telling you the truth. This app just keeps on telling me " The LDOAE5 app has stopped " and I really hate it. If you people do not do anything thing about it then I will delete this app on my phone 😤😠😤😠
Doesn't support accounts. I need to synchronize the data across different devices. But can't do.
hey guys you should implement a kind of tap like Google translate but in english, it definitely will help to English learners, I do aprreciate lot thia app a lot in my opinion is the best dictionary ever.
One of the best dictionaries.
Its being an online dictionary is disappointing 😕offline and complete dictionaries are better than this. The problem is that it's an online dictionary 🙄1 star
It's a good dictionary but if it is offline. It will be a good.
Ads not removed in the Premium version. Requested refund.
1.It's an Online app 2.It's an online app 3.It's an Online app I mean we are not always online :/ at least It could be offline for just definitions, not all but just a tiny part of app
Simply perfect! Install it. You won't regret. The LDOAE makes learning English pleasantly easier! 😎💪🏽🇧🇷
Why there are tons of ads? Even though I paid for the app. It's darn annoying. If it is free I can understand.
it's very good but the dictionary has to be offline so that we can use it where there is no internet connection.
Thanks for programmers who created this app. Iʼve been using it for a year and I learned so many words from it. I can say I improved my American accent with this app due to Itʼs easy to understand definitions particularly with pictures. Also u can learn words which about different topics. When u open it uʼll see ,,words of today“ and u can learn so many words with easy way. Thanks again😊
Great app for learning and understanding new words in english
It's awesome. Just make the pronunciation and the words offline. Thanks
I really like this app and it comes really usefull for me but there is a problem with this app. Sometimes when I search a word it doesnt comes.
the Dictonary Part can not be Use Offline and it has too much ads though its good for its wonderful practical pictures
I recommend Long Man Dictionary and it's best one among dictionaries. It explains every meaning to understand very well
Considering the users I have heard it is one of the best dictionary to someone who would like to learn english.
I give this app a zero star EVEN OF THERE'S A ONE STAR.. It calls it an offline dictionary then, after dowlaoding it to check for a word it tells you that there's no internet connection. I ADVICE YOU NOT TO DOWNLOAD JUST RUBBISH.
It's amazing..but fix pronunciation the words offline, please.
It's not available for everyone. If you download then you have to do premium version
I like it alot. Its explanation is easy to understand the meaning of words.
The app is good, but the advertisements are annoying.

I have been using Longman since 1998 in the format of books.(not app). (No Android system was there)I bought a book naming "Longman Dictionary of Common Errors" . I also collected pdf file of that book . It helped me a lot. I always carry it with my mobile phone. So I request you to make an APP on it . It will be very helpful to others. Thanking you and your team. Pls reply whether you will make it or not .
