Oxford Advanced Learner's Dict

The content is amazing. But, for a €35 app, the experience is frustrated. For example, the content doesn't fit on screen and you need to scroll right. In addition, when you're in a page and want to find another term you need to go back to home since the search bar there find words in the opened page. It isn't intuitive. The app should be available for family library also like a physical dictionary that I could share with my family members. Improve the app and you'll have my 5 stars.

I love the dictionary, but it has lately changed the layout of the descriptions of words : the text is much wider than the screen of my phone and it's driving me crazy - I cannot make a screenshot with the entire definition (some parts of words are always cropped), it's inconvenient to read, you have to move the text to the right and left constantly! I have checked all of the settings, googled it, tried shrinking the size of the letters - nothing helps alas. Please help

The best dictionary in my opinion and a very well designed app. So why 3 star? Well! An important and a crucial feature is missing from this app. Every time I change my phone I would loose all my favorite lists. I do not see a way to transfer list of my favorite words to an another or a new mobile 😒. I am wondering that how difficult this feature could be that it is not yet implemented in such a great dictionary app. Looking forward to the feature in an upcoming update.

A great companion on the go. With a paid version, I have access to all and even more than all I need in a dictionary. I'm able to install across my Windows and Android devices with the same one time off purchase. An improvement in presentation of usage of words in phrases, expressions and idioms would make it more useful

Although some usabilility features can be added, I still think the app is good value for money. The explanation of words and their use in a sentence are easy to follow and memorize. Only concern is that it lacks some usabilty features - not integrated with os context menu to show the quick meaning which is a basic feature in most of the free dictionary app.

The search option isn't very accurate, for example, if I enter "Wordsworth", the entire term won't show me the required result, but if I only type "word" or "William word", only then will it show the result. Secondly a lot of terms like city capitals such as "Addis Ababa", etc. or even words like "praetorium" simply aren't there at all but the result can be obtained in Mobidict's Oxford Dictionary of English, it would be helpful to see the database and search engine updated.

Quite good dictionary. In compare with Cambridge dict this one has one cool feature - it has got pronunciation not only the base forms of all verbs but also past, participle and continuous forms. It's good coz there are a lot of crazy words like read or said. For idiots who are screaming that this app isn't free - read annotation before install.

It seems Oxford has fixed the bug where the pages of the dictionary wouldn't fill the screen completely, forcing you to constantly slide your finger left and right. So, I gave it 5 stars again. The bug had been going on for more than a year. Thank you Oxford team.

It's really nice for learn vocabulary I love it. There're sth following: 1.But it's hard for me to find a word via the meaning, because English is not my mother language. I don't know if you could solve this problem for the guys like me wanna find a word by its meaning. 2.The speaking speed of the example sentences is too fast to follow for beginer. It'll be perfect if we can adjust it ourselife. 3. I surgest to increase a function that we can check the word by copy it then popuping the meaning when we meet a stranger word in other APPs. It's so comman in other dictionary APPs. Thank you for your hard work for English learners.

I like the content of this app and wish to purchase this app, but the text do not fit the display of smartphone when you look up a word you have to keep on scrolling the page right and left at every line, which render it very user unfriendly. Please fix this issue, I am waiting, I shall make the purchase as soon as you fix this issue.

The vocabulary, examples, pronunciation are very good and useful (after you buy expensive license). There was an issue with text rendering, and I'm glad it was finally fixed. Thanks, that lets me give you five stars.

it's simply awesome. the dictionary that revived my interest in language and writing and helped me become proficient. app is as good as the dictionary pronunciations, sentences everything is good. if they can add some video clips for pronunciation guide and English conversation

They're a liar. The outcome is different from the video. For example, you can also search the word 'eye'. And there is no picture. The interface was too meas, even there is no usage. It's worse than 8th edition.

Best, specially pronunciation. I can find every single word, phrase, idiom in it.. maybe only some (complex)words from a particular field like medical, science etc couldn't be found, though i haven't met such words yet. Those who are complaining that it lacks words & other phrases or idioms, simply don't know how to use it in the first place(because it won't show you phrasal verbs & idioms, actually it will but first you have to tap on the button on the left side of typing box)

It's a good app for all-in one English. it's better for making a better conversation, very useful for preparing an IELTS and a GRE standard vocabulary. Waiting for the Next version release.

Don't know what happened, but texts no longer fit to the screen's width, so now I have to "scroll" horizontally to read full lines. Really inconvenient and annoying.

Everything is great except for screen optimization. It just happened after installing 9.1. Please hurry fixing the problem because having to scroll left every line is really annoying.

It's a very reliable dictionary. But if the app can import wordlists into favorite folder would-be great. Can you kindly add a new function that I can see all the Academic Wordlist in a folder? Thanks

I just paid over $50 for this app. And this app is stupidly designed. There is a seach symbol that when you click on it, it changes the type of shearch you are doing. It stops searching for meanings of words. I have been having to change dictionary because I though this app was total junk and was missing meanings of words. This app is indeed lacking on the old english. e.g Words like wroth. For the price, this app is not worth the price. Quality is sub par, price is premium.

The dictionaries should be updated from time to time, I believe there were no updates since version 9 was introduced. Overall a great app, worth the money if you need a good OFFLINE dictionary

I do not like the display, it do not fit with my Nokia 8.1 screen. I have to swipe left to see full definitions. Overal experience is great though.

Enjoyed the previous version 8 that I bought for EUR 35 but which is no longer available for download. A possibility to update to the latest version is promised in the description but I got no response from the developers after repeated e-mails. Not acceptable at this price.

it's veritably awful experience! 1. wasted my pivotal time 2. spendthrifted enormous data 3. utterly business oriented app... not even presented the preview completely! left me in sullen face... if you install it you will"verily become bakara"

I don't understand why one should download the app and cannot use it. The purchase amount is too expensive and I suggest you state it clearly that the app is bought and state the amount than wasting peoples data. I rather buy the hard copy than buy an app. So what has pens to the data I used to download the app now. Wasted? That's not fair.

I really love it. It gives me a wonderful experience for using dictionary. It works fine. There is only one con. i.e. its size. try to lower its overall size.

OVERPRICED and not even a trial period of any sort, it MAYBE the best dictionary out there, but if you don't even LET US LEND SOME WORDS that we need to understand, at least a 100 words free. Your Marketing strategy is way too bad. IT'LL BE BETTER IF YOU JUST MAKE IT A PAID-FIRST APP instead of letting us download and then GETTING THAT BADLY "REJECTED".

I'm a 9th edition user.It it's really useful for me.My device had a few problems.So theOALD app couldn't be used . Although I downloaded again it couldn't be used. Please give me a piece of advice to use it.
