Comments on gSho - Japanese Dictionary for Android
★★★★★
Excellent start Love the appearance compared to other apps. Searches very quickly, but would like to see more common words at the top. One feature that I miss is being able to restrict searches to common words à la WWWJDIC. Kanji search would be an awesome feature, too.
★★★★★
Very useful I don't have to change to Google Japanese IME everytime i wanna search in hiragana, so that's good.. Example sentences are hyperlinked just in case I don't know what it means.. But there's no stroke order so that's 1 minus
★★☆☆☆
Good looking but, kind of cumbersome to search with. You need to switch between kana input and latin input if you want to search for Japanese or English words. You can't write with latin characters and get both japanese and english results at the same time. Also when searching in Japanese you must use wildcards to see words that start with what you have typed so far. That is たと gives no results at all, but then when you enter one more characters and type たとえ you get a result. The UI and ads also take up a lot of space, so with the keyboard open when you type your search term you only see 3 results and it feels very crowded.
