Your app is excellent–hands down the most comprehensive dictionary app I've found to date. One small note - as a graphic designer & UI developer, I feel the new logo does the app a grave disservice. The old logo was much more effective - conveying the warmth & historical authority of old dictionaries. This new blue colorscheme is all wrong, having no bearing on either analog dictionaries nor conveying a positive emotion. The new icon is generic & banal, whereas the old was welcoming & relevant.

This is one of my favorite dictionaries; however there are some inaccuracies within the app. When you search for words like "information" and "equipment," it shows you their plural forms as "informations" and "equipments," which are inaccurate since these words are mass nouns and do not have plural forms per se. Please fix this to avoid any confusion.

Fantastic Dictionary! Have been using the free version of Wordweb for quite some time and I'm loving it. The only problem seems to be lack of efficient way to navigate the bookmarked words. It would be highly convinient if we could swipe to go to suceeding words instead of having to go back to the list again and again. Developers have done a great job creating this wonderful app. Cheers!
