Pros and cons of Advanced English Dictionary. app for iPhone and iPad

Advanced English Dictionary. app good for

Im sure this is the best English dictionary for mobile devices. The word coverage is excellent, apart from the normal English words it also contains extremely rare words and expressions, dates, biograpy, geograpy, medicines, diseases, technical words and so on. It is almost an encyclopedia. The related words (more specific, more general words for each result) feature is sooo unique and useful. Ive never seen this feature in other dictionaries so far. And the user interface is simply beautiful, just have a look at the screen shots. Its highly recommended! 5 out of 5 stars.
I highly recommend this dictionary which is very well done. One of the best. Its a bargain for this price !
Simple to use and value for money. No need of internet connection
Excellent aplication. Easy to use with an agreable interface. An essential.
Excellent dictionary, functioning offline. Unusual words from various English-speaking countries. Detailed definitions. I love using it!
Tout simplement génial! Interface très user-friendly, surtout depuis la dernière version. Le contenu est très riche! One of the best way to improve your English!

Some bad moments

Very good dictionary. I bought this Sept 2009 and it was on sale. Why is it still so? SCAM!!! 1 stars till app description is fixed otherwise 5, ok
This app has been on sale for ever now! Dont be fooled into to thinking you are getting a deal! The Dictionary itself is average at best - there are other that are better thats for sure. If it werent for the "on sale this weekend only" BS Id rate it higher. Come on guys you really think people wont notice??
Why I have to pay 2. time for the same app, but for iPad version? Its a f. greed.
