United StatesThis is the worst purchase I’ve made. I want my money back
This dictionary has very limited number words. You couldn’t find some simple word on this app. I don’t know why the app even called itself a “dictionary”. It just ruins the reputation of Oxford Dictionary. Apple needs to do something about this app and take it off from the app store. Totally is a scam. I want my money back. Do we have an option to return a purchase item from app store, Apple?
