Sound button

The sound button never works. For a foreigner pronunciation is crucial. Update: I gave it 4/5 stars initially as the sound button didn't work. I received a response that it was because I had put my phone on silent mode. Okay, that's fine, now I have to put back my phone on a ringing mode to just hear the pronunciation of a word. I can live with that. But guess what? It worked for a while and now even with the ringer enabled the button still doesn't work.

Love it! But one thing..

Love this app and use it almost daily! The only thing is deterring me from rating a perfect 5 is that notifications are repeated and its a super turn off. Please fix?

AWESOME

Best app I have ever used for definitions

IPad inaccessible

The app is very user friendly on the iPhone. However, the screen cannot be turned for iPad use and thus cannot be typed on from a keyboard. This becomes increasingly annoying when working on papers as I have to go back and forth between turning the screen to accommodate for the single use iPhone capability. Please make this an iPad app, too :)

I dislike this app

Doesn’t work for me.

Crashes every time I follow a notification

The app has a daily “word of the day” notification. When I click the notification, the app opens and immediately crashes. Every time. Not sure how long it’s been going on, but it happens every time now. I tried to report the problem. From the app you can click a link which bounces you out to a web browser and takes you through several different pages where you just have to keep clicking “contact support.” You finally get to a page with a form to submit your problem. You have to fill out a captcha. I don’t know why a robot would submit a bug report to dictionary.com, but you have to prove you’re a human nonetheless. And then I clicked the submit button and a little progress icon just spins and spins and spins. It’s still spinning, but the captcha verification has expired.

No sound but great otherwise

I love the app and the dictionary, what I don’t like and need is the sound from the enunciations! Please get my sound to work. Every time I get a new phone I have to go through this all over again- no sound! H E L P !!!!!’
