Nobody's gonna purchase the yearly subscription if you plan to keep it in the future. Who will give 25$ yearly for a medical dictionary? Nowadays google search is enough, no need for a separate dictionary app. However if you switch back to one-time payment option, a lot of users will be interested to buy.

Oh boy! I was in and out of this silly junk mail of a dictionary in 2 minutes. Virtually any view of just a simple definition resulted in a default ad for an update - and a tacky lowball 3 day Free trial update, at that. What's the model for this two-bit app, Honest Harry's Quality Used Car & U-Strip Junkyard?

The offline mode is purely a FRAUD. Whenever I exit the app, I have to download full dictionary again as it goes automatically to online mode. After installing the app 5 days ago, I had to download the dictionary 4 times fully. I bought the app by paying Rs 2000. Now i'm thinking that my 2000 rupees went to drainage. The dictionary is excellent but the app is worst. Please fix the issue or refund me.
