What users are saying

1. It's called scam, or "a clever and dishonest plan for making money", as it's defined in the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary.Oxford Dictionaries don't need any rating or recommendations! Oxford compilations are all one of a kind with an authoritative expertise, accuracy of information, offering an abundance of knowledge!!!Great content, but the app requires an urgent update, as the experience of scrolling down or up a page is not smooth, but boring.No stars, tmbut this application didn't allow me to oroceed inless I have them a star, so basically you dont have much options, it is not free, then I can go to store a buy actual Dictionary for that money Even public posts doesn't have a option to right negative comments, you have to give them at least one star... Big noOxford is misleading innocent people and earning money fraudulently.

2. Denying its access to these...may cause it no longer fuction as intended.' This same notice also appeared on Thesaurus! OUP please provide buyers with these apps designed for newest version of Android! Please help!I just love the app.. .. The app has only those words .. which are most commonly used in academic writing ... which one would frequently encounter in various articles in journals, newspapers etc .. .. .

3. I purchase this application by spending more than 2500 rupees now application is saying that your Android version is updated and this application will not work properly in this version.Many academic words not included.

4. Because when i click the word he show me nees update but there has no any option to click for update.One star for a very simple reason: this app misleads people into thinking that it's free.

5. Then it said 'this app was designed for an older version of Android.

6. A very good app for Advanced Learners .. ..The dictionary wasn't install properly by App.

7. Disappointing.An excellent application for student of English language.

8. When i tried to open, it said it needed access to a lot of things i don't like it to.

9. It is only after you install the app that you realise you need to buy it.

10. No development of app in 7 years.

11. Love it so much.
