I purchased the English-French dictionary to have an ad-free experience. When I open the app I get an ad by Bravolol *advertising* that a better app is available. When I download the “better” app and use it, an even more steady flow of ads is again there for English-French, like as if I had never paid. So I trashed that “better” version. But then, still, every time that I open my originally purchased app, I get that same nagging alert that wants me to download their “better” app. Heck, the “better” app is WORSE because you cannot remove ads there! Dear Bravolol developper, can you please remove your annoying popup (ad) after I have paid to get an ad-free experience? I have today requested my money back and obtained a refund. I have also reported the issue to Apple via their “Report a problem” page (in the list of purchases) which will flag you, the developer, as violating the rules: Article 5.6 says: Apps cannot use Push Notifications to send advertising, promotions, or direct marketing of any kind.

I gave this 3 stars because when I look up a French word it does not tell me the gender. The only way to get the gender of a noun is to search the English word. This is so important and so difficult with the app as it is that I’m going to look for a different dictionary app. If they fix this, it will bring them to 4.5 stars because the pronunciation on some words is also not right at all, but otherwise it would be pretty good.
