Review title of Matthewsearch function needs to be updated/added

app is terrible. the only way to search for the definition of the word is to search through the entire computers search function. yes this is nice and should be a part of the app, but if I want to have the app opened while working on something and want to search I cannot while in the app.

Review title of micaylaWhat the *#$#?!?!

It keeps crashing upon opening. Until this is fixed, I will (and you, reader should too) find a different dictionary app. I am very disappointed with you, dictionary.com. I really like your dictionary and thesaurus website and wanted an app. Well, turns out, it crashes upon opening all the time! How am I supposed to find definitions and synonyms/ antonyms in one app? I hope another app has this function otherwise I'll just have to get two separate apps. SEE YOU NEVER AGAIN, DICTIONARY.COM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! p.s. The only reason I gave this stupid app a one star review is 'cause I have to. If I could, I would give it a NEGATIVE 5-STAR REVIEW!

Review title of AlexaHorrible! Need to fix the problems with this app!

I have this app on my phone and use it all the time. I'm not suppose to have my phone during class so I decided to download the app on my HP! This app will not work! When I open the app it stays open until I click in the window and from then on it will open and close immediately after! This is very annoying and disappointing! I hope they fix this problem soon!

The app closes within 3 to 5 seconds every time that it is launched. This makes the app completely useless. I am switching to another dictionary app, and I hope that it can actually be opened.

I have to go through the side (Windows Search) select the app, and search there instead of the app just having a simple search bar.

Review title of Mr.A disrespectful afterthought

Whoever made this program barely put in basic thoughts to functionality and usage within and without its place in a persons work flow. First off, the search function is relegated to the built-in search in windows. As it is, the search does not automatically tell you its searching within the program itself. It seems to be a design issue within windows 8.1 itself, however it should have access to its own search bar. One that automatically searches when you type on the keyboard. Search is the number one priority when using a Dictionary. The application does not scale to half screen size. Even when its multitasking with any screen size one cannot scroll or access content to the right of the word so one could see links, synonyms, antonyms ect. The second consideration for this application is that it is used seamlessly with other activities. Multitasking is highly important.

Review title of SvenApp crashes

The app crashes shortly after starting. I think this is because the license for the Bing maps part of the app in no longer valid. On that part is an error message show shortly after the launch of the app.
