Pros and cons of Dictionary and Thesaurus Pro app for iPhone and iPad

Dictionary and Thesaurus Pro app good for

A great app. No need to first choose the language, it figures it out itself. It can give definitions, synonyms, and translations across many different languages. It has both online and off-line modes. It would be nice, however, if it could automatically detect an Internet connection and choose the most appropriate mode itself.
Very complete, works well, easy to use. No complaints whatsoever.
Very useful and user-friendly app combining amongst other features several dictionaries, thesauri, news articles, and encyclopaedias. I use it all the time.
A very handy and useful app. Absolutely remarkable including a thesaurus and prononciation of words Certainly the best app in this domain
You learn, you have fun, you pass the time intelligently and you know more than minutes before Absolutely great app
This is an amazing dictionary, so useful!! I use it as one would read a novel, there is so much information in it!! A request though: the Russian words are written with stress as идеа́льный, which is fine. But why would the search engine be unable to find it? Couldnt you guys remove the stress accent from а́ before searching the dictionary? Otherwise thanks a lot for this very useful app!!

Some bad moments

One of the reasons I purchased this dictionary was their offer of a Portuguese dictionary. Its awful, terrible and it brings meanings in Spanish instead. For foreign languages it is simply worthless.
First I bought into the ad free version. Now I bought into the "PRO" addition. Havent really any advantage to this version. The "FREE" Dictionary is getting costly.
