After the update - the app is wonderful again.

After the update, I am back to rating this app A+++++. I use multiple dictionaries in my daily life as well as many app based reference books. Having these enormous books at my fingertips in a portable device is a real help. There’s nothing more satisfying than to find ALL the information I need without hauling out weighty tomes.
Of course, the content is magnificent as anyone would expect from Oxford!
Thanks very much to the developers for fixing the issues that I was having. I really appreciate the work that you have put into this app.

Developer Response ,

Total failure messages fixed

Twice in recent weeks the app became completely unusable displaying a ‘total failure’ message upon opening it. Fortunately the developers fixed that bug both times within ten days.

Developer Response ,

Not going to point the finger -but it was our fault.
Thank you for your patience.
