I originally gave this 4 stars back in 2013 because the UI could be a little clunky and editing groups or adding dictionaries could be improved, but that's a very minor issue. However, I've been using this literally daily since 2013 and I must say, it is the single most used and useful app I have ever bought.

Update: "Search All Dictionaries" is not working in newer versions of Android, at least for me. It seems to be a bug... ********* This is a great app that enables you to access your EPWING, EB and other dictionaries on Android devices.

Pros: It's usable as a dictionary. Cons: Everything else. App is google translated from Japanese I guess, it's impossible to understand what settings or menus do. UI is ancient, reminds me of dictionaries I used on my Pocket PC 20 years ago.

Recently the definition of word takes up to 10 seconds to show up, until then its completely blank making the dictionary almost unusable. Edit: When I disabled "continuous mode" it works ok now, what does it even do?

Excellent app that has been a valuable tool over my many years using Japanese in everyday life and work, but can you PLEASE add a feature that let's us save the dictionary group layouts, etc?
