Exception dictionary
I extensively use dictionaries when studying. I look up every word I don’t know. This is my favorite because the definitions are simple and straight to the point. They do not use other unnecessary complicated words which simply confuse the matter. It is also a great dictionary for foreigners and children. And it has simple derivations.
Sometimes, like all dictionaries with derivations, they will link to other words to complete the derivation, which is unfortunate. Would be much better if they just completed the job right then and there. Also, note to designer: COM- link is broken.
There is no other dictionary that compares to this one online. Microsoft Encarta is amazing as well, but only available in hard copy. But for online, this one is unbeatable, hands down. And it is simpler than Encarta.
Dark mode option bug
Hi guys. Thanks for this wonderful app and thanks for adding dark mode Option. Yet there is a problem. If you are in the lightmode you can switch between always dark and not always dark in the app and it works well. But when I am in the dark mode of the system the app doesn’t respond. The switch you designed for always dark doesn’t not take the dictionary out of dark mode. In other words this switch doesn’t work in the dark mode. I tested it a few times. Thanks for your consideration
Developer Response ,
This has been fixed.
Some parts of the UI are cached by iOS (like lists cells) this will leave ghosts for a while. Otherwise, switching should work now.
