Can’t save words for future study/reference
This app remains the best for defining words on a one-off basis without the intent to add words to one’s own lexicon. But removing the ability to save words to a personal list as a tool for building one’s vocabulary is a big step backwards. While it is possible to “share” the word to another app for future reference, doing so doesn’t provide access to the full range of features offered in the app, such as example usage and the thesaurus.

Deleting Now
I cannot fully express the frustrating experience this app has become. A paid for version that has now been scrapped and they took away my years worth of saved words. All without any notification, my list of hundreds of words is now gone. I will move on to another app.
