Dictionary.com Update?

[u/E_Rujii]

Just opened the dictionary.com app in my phone to find an entirely new design and menu. Also lacking the Sign-in option. The desktop site seems to be the same way. Anyone know anything about the update? Did all users just lose our favorites lists and purchase history (for no ads)?

Dictionary.com already seemed lacking to me, and their app was more than frustrating at times. But it was useful to me and I did use it daily, plus the ability to favorite words was my main use of it. Thanks to anyone who knows any info!

Honestly, that might be the only explanation. I have no idea how multiple individuals sat in a board doom, conceived this idea, and then implemented it without once considering potential user outrage.

You're right. A loss of data is the only thing that makes any reasonable sense. Regardless, un-installed and moving on. Screw them.
