Oxford Deluxe (ODE and OTE)

I’ve used this app almost every day for the last 15 years. I’ve written countless essays and letters with this app as my partner. This is exactly what you need to accomplish your biggest goals and dreams; I mean this literally. I use it on my phone and my computer. Whenever I open Word, this app gets opened alongside. It’s truly indispensable and I’m deeply grateful. 🙏

Oxford dictionary appとか不要！この価格で紙面版をを全て閲覧できるとは！ 需給の法則もおったまげる衝撃の安さ。 精選版日国と併せて一生使います！Oxford大学に感謝感謝

Here are just two reasons why this app should be avoided: 1) You can't choose what type of font you want! An English dictionary where you can't choose the font! 2) This version includes a thesaurus, but you have to physically choose the thesaurus to see the results. In other words the app does not present the results of a searched word within one window. Instead you must choose dictionary and then thesaurus to see the results - every time! The app is also poorly designed. It does look as though it was developed in the 1980's and a developer just ported it over from a windows version. For the price the developers should have produced a much more functional dictionary/thesaurus. Avoid this app.

I have this app on Mac and a different one on PC. This particular app is disappointing for several reasons, the first being dictionary comprehensiveness. At least 25% of the time, I search for words that it can not find. For example, lede, as in 'bury the lede.' The PC app contains the definition, and even the popular search engine brings up the information, going so far as to cite the OED and provide a link to the Oxford website page! Second, the high-school thesaurus quality. The number of results per word (synonyms and antonyms) is meager, offering a small number of alternatives, each of which is often a straightforward, familiar word. There are no deep dives or partial approximations. Finally - usability. The interface offers a radio button to choose between Dictionary and Thesaurus, but it provides results for Dictionary even when you select Thesaurus. Many are unaware that the OED most of us think of is actually the abridged version. The complete edition spans many volumes. This database may be abridged, but even so, words like lede are included in the abridged version. As it stands, this app seems no better than Webster's with an Oxford logo. In some respects, I regret the purchase.

This is not standard iOS behavior and makes it very frustrating to use the app while walking or in a moving vehicle

Way back in the day, Oxford Deluxe was the first major purchase I ever made on the iPhone. Hats off to the developer for keeping this outstanding app updated for all these years. Great to see it updated.

I don't always use medieval sayings and words, but when I do, —the OED is my go to resource for sorting out my behoves from my begats. I find my language capanilities expanding, because the OED is so precise in including the history and formaton of words, I become more enlightened in my own use of the English Lanuage. Since I use MAC a lot, it pops easily in my Launchpad app, making this great resource available wherever I am. I give the OED a 6 ouit 5 stars, for it's incredible support of language usage. Otherwse, I would have to drive arounf with either the 12 boook set, or some fiant 50 pound book in my trunk, and nobody wants to do that everyday. It is one of the few apps I purchsed, and I contibue to het ypdates! So many good features.

This app gives us a good set of words that explain what a word means and it even has a thesaurus. Double thumbs up

I'd like to begin with commending the comprehensive nature of this dictionary and thesaurus—it truly is a one-stop resource for anyone looking to enhance their vocabulary and speaking skills. However, the aesthetic elements, such as the color themes (red for a thesaurus, for instance) and the font choice, seem outdated, reminiscent of early iOS applications. While I appreciate the dedication to maintaining the app and offering it at a one-time cost, the user interface could greatly benefit from a modern redesign. Take, for example, the Oxford dictionary app by MobiDict, which boasts a clean, user-friendly interface with appealing fonts and colors, focusing on essential features rather than an overload of rarely used ones. At the very least, an update to the font could help the app feel more current. I hope this feedback is received as constructive criticism, and I want to reiterate my appreciation for your consistent efforts over the years. Looking forward to hearing your response.

As both a reader and a writer I have many resources at hand, but none like the Oxford. So many times it has rescued me, surprised and delighted me, educated me, and set beyond and apart my journeys and experiences. It is one of my most prized possessions (and yes, I feel I possess it, and perhaps it, me, as with Tolkien’s Gollum and the ring).
