    The redesign in version 2.3 addresses all of the issues I found disappointing in version 1.5. I still feel I overpaid (I bought this app at $24.99) and it took a while to get these improvements, but they are quite welcome. Here is my original (three-star) review for version 1.5 : The content in this app seems quite good ; I'm studying Spanish for the first time and wanted a monolingual dictionary, and it serves the purpose with apparently high-quality content. However, the content was obviously transformed mechanically from some other format, and has lost a bit in the process. Example sentences are not set off from definition text ; formatting bugs cause subheadings to run into their definitions ; clicking the word "hongos" takes you to "honkonguense" instead of "hongo" ; moving back and forth in the history behaves non-intuitively (hitting back three times, then select another head word ; now you must hit back four times to get to the fork in the road) ; word lookup is slower than it needs to be (probably due to the "everything on one virtual scrollable page" idiom) ; the pinch-zoom effect on the headings list is novel but too slow and finicky to be better than just annoying ; and in general the definitions look like a wall of text rather than well-formatted headings and definitions. I use another monolingual dictionary app (for a different language), at a third the price, that has set expectations for me ; this app has fallen far short of those expectations. For the price of this app, I was expecting something much more polished than what I got. It gets three stars because it appears to have very good content, which is still fairly accessible ; but the app itself is poorly conceived and a disappointment at this price. I can hope the developers will be sensitive to these issues, and redeem the good content with a worthier user interface.
