12/31/2012While the program runs well and is easy to use, its dictionary is lackluster; I was surprised to see 'stalwart' as an omission. I'm sure I will use this app as a meager resource, but I don't think it will suit my needs well. This would not have been a purchased app if the description had included a noted preference of translations over dictionary contents.
