5/5Good but Questionable
This app has been super helpful when it comes to learning Arabic as an English speaker. It offers useful tools like word lists and flashcards of those lists. Plus you have a variety of dictionary’s and other sources to get multiple definitions of a word. It is a bit annoying with the ads because they show up just enough to be a bother. However I ended up paying for the app since I’ll be using it for while. My concern comes from the clipboard usage. I have noticed that periodically it will read the clipboard whether I am in the app or not. This is a large concerned because there is no reason for it to be reading from the clipboard. It’s an even bigger issue when I have paid for the app. I definitely don’t want an app keeping track of my clipboard after I have given it money. I may seek a refund because if it’s going to keep tracking I don’t want to give my money to this company.

5/5Amazing
This app is truly the best. I am abroad learning arabic in a markaz, and when i tell you i use this app everyday, i use it everyday! You can find, plurals, opposites, definitions, example sentences and related words, all under one search. Granite the app is in arabic, so you will need some previous arabic exposure to navigate and get the most out of it. The dissect word for word translation is in English and that can obviously benefit anyone at any level. I truly suggest this app. The interface is not beautiful but boy, oh boy, it gets the job done!!

5/5Remove adds
Would you please remove the adds from the top of the application, it’s so distracting and annoying.. People with important issues (like writing a thesis )don’t have the time to press the add space by mistake and than wait for the screen to return the way it was . This app is supposed to help people who don’t speak English, not make them hate the language because of this new update!!

3/5Second Review!
This is my second review. First one was rated 4 stars and gave high recommendation, subject to tune the commercial volume as it was really loud to the extent of popping your eardrums. This review, sadly to say that the application is not performing as before; on the contrary the searching function is useless. Most of the English words, though it’s loaded in English and translated to Arabic; but once you search for the same word in Arabic, it won’t be found in English! Weird! Try “Amortize”, try “Moratorium “ and other bunch of words. Search in both languages and don’t be surprised. I hope search option will be refunctioning as before.

5/5A dictionary that you want have
I’ve been using this amazing dictionary app for several years and I can tell you that it served my needs, easy to look up a word, save it within the app, share it, you will be able to even interpret the words and read more details and last but not least see pictures that help you to understand. Highly recommended..
