Good Dictionary

elespuru · 14 years ago · v1.4.1

I have the Longman Advanced American Dictionary and CD ROM as well, and I dont like carrying it around, too heavy. Now, I can carry the dictionary in my iPhone, v 1.4.1 I would like to see some updates implemented for the iPhone: 1) flip through from word to word. Now, you have to go back and then select the next word in the dictionary. Samething for the favorites list. 2) Implement multiple favorite lists, not only one 3) Be able to see horizontal on the iPhone 4) I would like to be able to record myself pronouncing a word and replay it. (This option is available in the CD but not in the iPhone) This is a really good dictionary, which includes the pronunciation in IPA and you can listen how to pronounce the words.

Unclear menu icons

gooddesignedapps · 14 years ago · v1.4.1

I expected this dictionary application because it was by Longman. But when I downloaded it and started using, my expectation was suddenly changed to disappointment. Its menu icons such as "Dictionary" "Favorites" "Search" especially "History"!! are very unclear. In fact, you can find it now in the above screenshots. It really disappointed me. If you want to use standard designed application, I recommend you to choose another dictionary.

Best ever

Shar.sam · 13 years ago · v3.9

Its the best dictionary.... easy to use always there is something new

Pronunciation

KaneTheMen · 13 years ago · v3.9.1

The dictionary is perfect, but some words that arent included pronunciation. When I pressed audio of some words, it didnt work at all. Please fix it.

The best but separated

Andrew Lygin · 13 years ago · v3.9.2

I really love all the Longman dictionaries that I use (Advanced American, Phrasal Verbs, Idioms and Activator). I think they are the best on the market. The only problem is that I always have to switch between them. It would be much more handily to have one Longman dictionary application and pluggable dictionaries designed as in-app purchases (like in Lingvo). It would undoubtedly be 5 stars.
