Mr
This is the precisest dictionary Ive ever seen. Synonyms and Usage Notes are especially of great help to advanced learners of English.
Defective
I bought this app expressly for the sound file and so far on an iPad Air with IOS 9 there is no way I can make it work. I want a refund!
iPhone6、あるいは、iOS8にしてから、使えません
これまでずっと使っていました。 しかし、iOS8、また、iPhone6にしてから、落ちるようになりました。 そのため、削除してから、もう一度、再購入という形でダウンロードしました。しかし、また、検索のページに行こうとすると、落ちてしまいます。 早く改善して下さい。 直れば、星は５つで良いです。 よろしくお願いします。
