Many times, whenever I press the speaker button to hear the audio pronunciation of words, error message appears "Network access is required". The problem is only solved when I close the app, and after that it works fine. If it happened just once in a while, I would have ignored it, but the issue keeps recurring in an annoying way.

When pressing the "back" button after tapping through several words, it goes to the main screen rather than to the previous words, which is infuriating. The audio buttons to check word pronunciations don't work. Don't like having to also pay for a subscription.

Purchased this app at back in 2018, Great value for money , I have no reason to try or look for another. I wish they could add more word games like puzzles etc., for an extra buck though, I know it's a dictionary šŸ˜‰...
