  • Disappointed

    I have been a user of LDOCE PLUS for years. Suddenly, I found the application not working. I tried to reinstall the app, hoping the problem would be solved; however, it was no longer available. I paid for that application years ago, and I’m wondering how this happened. It’s the next level of irresponsibility.
  • Apps not working

    This app and Longman Advanced American Dictionary used to be the best purchases I have ever made till the update of IOS 17. I realized that suddenly the second app no longer exists in the app store and LDOCE doesn't work properly. I paid money for both apps that were supposed to be available and it was said to be a one-time payment. Now not only it's forcing us to get a new app but also expects us to pay for the new app. It doesn't sound right. And there is no response to emails.
  • Want LDOCE+ back!

    I purchased the LDOCE+ for almost 30$ and all of a sudden it is removed from the app store! I even sent an email to the developer but they did not reply. Why should I pay again for something I’ve already bought?! This one is not even close to LDOCE+ and doesn’t have many of the features.
  • Sometimes the app stops operating suddenly.

    The app is acting funny. When I search for a word I don’t get a result.
  • Pronunciations aren’t played

    I don’t know why pronunciations aren’t played? Is there anything that I can do to fix it?
  • Bad version

    The old version of this dictionary is better than this version.

    I really find this dictionary app super helpful. It’s usually my go to and love that it has a history feature, can play example sentences and has decent derivations. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because I wish it had a portrait/vertical orientation on the iPad like it does on the iPhone.
