I paid for it back in January, tried to use it offline on the airplane last week, and the app asked me to pay again, blocking access to the dictionary. Boooooo. What I do like: a proper dictionary's worth of content, minimal app data sharing, offline access (when it works), simple UI. Maybe avoid mobi systems, they seem to be a common vendor for dictionary companies.
This is a well structured, uncluttered and versatile dictionary. The paucity of stars is a reflection of my anger. I agreed to the purchase of a lifetime licence based on a 30 day trial but was charged within 30 nanoseconds. The Collins name is not one I associate with deceit I'd rather praise your app than condemn your tactics but you quite literally gave me no choice, which is the very essence of a trial When you confirm the trial, I'll amend my rating and edit this review
Great
This app is very nice 👍
Excellent dictionary
The app worked fine before but since the update there are constant "billing problems".
