mediocre app for a ridiculous amount of money
-The interface is extermely poor, no option to hide examples on the fly - have to read through a large article to find what youre looking for.
-app is slow, heavy graphic design apps loads faster!
-registration on lingvo.ru website is impossible - you cannot get a serial number from this app = NO TECH SUPPORT!
-CRASHES FREQUENTLY. if you need a dictionary for work, this app will slow you down! every few words it will randomly crash, when you restart you have to look up from the beginning
-useless sidebar with list of dictionaries always shows up, you can hide it, but every new window pops it up automatically, no preference setting to remember the sidebar state.
-dictionary does not remember the previous state - every time you close the app, any translations youve looked up are gone.
-no abilitiy to add custom dictionaries or modify existing entries
-tech support is non-existent, if you have a problem or a question, go to forums, google, anywhere because ABBYY will not help!
overall impression:
the app has limited potential, but the execution is TERRIBLE. it would be a good beta test, but IT IS NOT worth $60! save your money for a better app.
