User Review answers:
Dr Moshashaei,
There is a "delete" button on the iPad version. For others a shake will clear the input field -much faster and takes up no space...
Mr. AlAmily,
The red codes next to headwords show frequencies for written and spoken.
eg. W1 W2
See the explanation in About > How to use...
Mr. KFLESH (Taiwan)
There is a switch in settings to make it just like that.
Turn off "Save Search Word".
Mr. Dinozzal,
We usually only update once a month and when there is new functions or bugs to fix. UNLESS there is an OS update or new devices released
-all of which just happened in a short period. Sorry about that.
Mr. 1stBj,
iCloud works for most people.
We will keep helping you with your issue, but support is the place to follow up about it.
