How can the language’s most respected and finest dictionary turn out such a humdrum app: the word of the day is often not even a word (TN is today’s) and often a proper noun (like Tennessee). The app is poorly designed and, for me, a mess. What a disappointment! Give me the printed American Heritage Dictionary any time: never a finer one dealing with the American language.

I’ve never been able to use the app because it doesn’t load and just has a white screen.

The dictionary is excellent, but in recent weeks the app comes up as a blank white page on both iPad and iPhone, with no way to navigate anywhere. What’s up???

Purchased this dictionary years ago and have used it often. Went to download it on my new iPad Mini 6 from “Purchased” apps in store and all I get is a blank white page with Google ad at bottom. Have tried removing/redownloading/rebooting several times to no avail. Works fine on iPhone. Says it’s compatible with this iPad. Tried reporting problem to Apple - says I can’t report because I don’t own it. Why is it under “Purchased” and on my iPhone? Developer website/link useless and refers me to community answers - generic and unhelpful. No direct developer contact information. Can’t restore premium purchase as directed from a blank white page!

For words that are researched, scrutinized and accurately defined, with in depth and accessible etymology.

As other have noted, all I see is a blank white screen and a small ad at the bottom after upgrading to iOS 16. App is now useless. I tried uninstalling/re-installing the app, but that did not correct the issue.

This used to be a good app but it no longer works after I updated my iPad/iPhone. It just shows a white screen. Of course, the ads work.
