Magnificent Dictionary

PharaohForever · 11 years ago · v2.0.5

Ive been collecting dictionaries for decades and this this ones a keeper. I know, you may ask: Who the hell needs an Australian dictionary? (that is besides an Australian). Well, all you have to do is watch a sporting event on TV with an Aussie or Kiwi commentator using slang from that part of the world and it quickly becomes very useful. Similarly, read a novel or newspaper and you will be sure to come across all kinds of slang, as well as flora and fauna that you are unfamiliar with. While a google search might give you a result, this dictionary gives you an authoritative result from Australias premier dictionary publisher. All in all, an outstanding dictionary.

Abysmal

三秒坊主 · 12 years ago · v2.0.1

After waiting more than a year for support for the iPhone 5 screen, the latest version takes about 5 seconds to start, and doesn’t search as you type. And all the entries are STILL defaced with an advertising link, even though it’s a paid product.

Excruciatingly poor excuse for an app!

I had hoped for so much from my beloved Macquarie dictionary, and instead Im appalled by this app. Of the dozen dictionary apps I have, it is hands down the worst. In fact, its one of the most pathetic apps Ive ever encountered. The developers say theyre working on improvements; I sincerely hope so. So, heres whats good about the app: the content of the dictionary itself. Heres whats bad: everything else. The only way to find a word is to type its first letters then start scrolling through the entire matching list (too bad if you dont know how to spell the word). There is no other way to access the content. And once youve scrolled through the list to find a match, you have to scroll all the way back up to rediscover the search box. I feel terribly ripped off by this sham of an app. Shame on you, Macquarie!
