Urban Dictionary for Negative User Reviews
✓ I can’t open the appI used to use it a lot when i used an iphone 6s, and i loved this app. I changed my phone to an 11 pro and tried to use this app and i can’t open the app. Every time I click on this app to use, it just automatically blacks out and turns off. Please fix this so that i can use it again..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Dear urban dictionaryI recently came across an entry on autism that said we know nothing about it. Well I sir or Mam do have autism and can tell you we know a whole lot about autism. Also there is no report button. Some entries also are very racially, socially, and mentally insensitive. You are the lowest ranking app in terms of definitions. I won’t be using your app unless you improve your app and make some serious changes..Version: 3.3.3
✓ No longer worksApp doesn’t work anymore, screen flashes and nothing loads.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Needs work. Incl NavigationWhile I like bare interfaces, this is a bit much. It has a search but not much else. However, on my iPad, it had more text off the bottom of the screen to which it would not let me scroll. Needs a few 'related' or 'close' suggestions like the web interface. I guess it looks up new terms, but could be a few notches better..Version: 1.2
✓ NopeScreen flashes and app freezes on load screen upon startup. What have you done? Fix this!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ A sad day in the world of Urban SpeakUrban Dictionary use to be fantastic, entertaining, and also useful. However, now it has been overflowed with useless phrases that nobody even knows or uses because literally anybody can put their own slang term in there. It’s all stupid now. All of the good and funny phrases are buried beneath the garbage, and the heap of useless nothingness from the deep stupidity of the minds of individuals, thinking their dumb phrase is important. It’s a system that must be changed, for the betterment of the world, and this great nation. God Bless.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Dictionary?So far I've found nothing but pathetic grammar and definition after definition that are more like personal complaints than anything else. What is the purpose of this app? It is certainly not a database of generally accepted alternate meanings for new or existing words or phrases..Version: 3.5.1
✓ App does not workI just downloaded it and it’s just stuck in one screen it won’t open.Version: 3.1.1
✓ No longer works in iOS 13Sort it out.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Hasn't been updated by the look of yearsSeems like an iOS 6 app that never got loce.Version: 1.2
✓ Dang this app is inappropriate!All I wanted was a nice dictionary app but the second I opened this app for the first time on the home page there was a message cursing Donald Trup out! Now I’m not a trump fan but when you want to look out the word “Nonplused” you don’t need a age 15 and up political rant! And then when I typed the the letter P guess what the first thing popped up! 🙄 well hope you don’t make the same dumb mistake of GETTING THIS DUMB “DICTIONARY” APP!!! And I apologize for all the yelling but that was very annoying! Good thing my 7 year old brother didn’t want to look up a word 😑🙄.Version: 3.5.1
✓ SeriouslyTook one look at the home page and knew whoever made this app had some serious problems..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Where is the Favourite list?Hi I noticed this version from the book style version a much more simplified version. But the biggest thing I miss is the -FAVORITE LIST?- where we can save our fav urban words! Please... can you add it in a update version? Thank u so much :).Version: 1.2
✓ This app is always buggingFix it please.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Its awesome but.....It is a funny way of learning but to manny swear words and bad words i looked up my name and came up with what i am exactly but i looked at other ones and came up with bad words so until that is fixed its a 3 star for me.Version: 1.2
✓ MehThis app is the definition of dirty meanings..Version: 1.2
✓ Huh whaMy app even when I have Internet won't work but why create a low quality app when there is a high quality web page on Safari😀.Version: 1.2
✓ Tried reinstalling. keeps crashing.Tried reinstalling the app. Keeps flickering I start up and simply doesn’t work. Uninstalled. Reviews are not recent showing no one is downloading the faulty app anymore..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Good but...... Not so goodWhen you go to type something we'll it always shows the ring thing like if you look it up in a normal dictionary it would not show the same thing but if you search a name than it will say something good.Version: 1.2
✓ Doesn't workApp seems broken. I downloaded it twice and it stills doesn't work..Version: 1.2
✓ Stopped updatingIt stopped updating a week or so ago. It also does not seem to be updating at their website. Maybe the app and the service are no longer supported. In any case, something that used to be excellent is much less useful. You can still look up words, but their word of the day function no longer works..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Won’t open on new iPhone 13I downloaded the app on my new phone but it won’t go past loading screen. Seen that it may on wifi in previous reviews also didn’t work. Obviously needs fixing.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Angry Asian womanOn a serious note, I was using this app to do my homework because my mom recommended it to me, but it is of no help to find real and serious definitions if that's what your looking for.Version: 1.2
✓ Too glitchyThe app glitches whenever I try to vote and always restarts itself and goes to the homepage.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Useful, But Politics Ruined ItIt's a good app, and I enjoy using it whenever some random slang or phrase comes up and I want to know the meaning behind it, however; the app is annoyingly politically and religiously biased with the words it features on the front page of the app. Much of the words featured are just Leftist agenda getting pushed down your throat, instead of actually funny words, and it's absolutely asinine. Most recently it's started taking jabs at religion as well, which is something nobody wants to hear about when you're on an app where you expect to have a good laugh. It's really no surprise why most of the featured words have more dislikes than likes..Version: 2.1
✓ SlowCrashes and doesn’t allow me to type in to search bar without crashing. App needs updating.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Joke app run by losersThey say "Urban Dictionary is written by you. Define your world" but your words have to be approved and can and will be denied. They think they are websters dictionary haha losers.Version: 1.2
✓ Could be goodI was excited to use this app but was let down when I realized it was plagued with petty political dribble that is downvoted by the majority. If the app had different sections for different words (i.e. political, movies, pop culture, celebrity) it would give the user more of a choice on what they do and don’t want to see. It’s a fairly simple app and could definitely benefit from more layers..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Bad, it uses their own opinionThis app is good, although they are not actual definitions. I searched up "Girl Guides" and their own opinion came up. You are supposed to but up the definition. The person who runs this app wouldn't even do Girl Guides. Guides and Scouts do the same thing, so how come Scouts aren't annoying?.Version: 1.2
✓ Used to be helpfulI used to find this site and app to be helpful. There's new slang developing daily and I'm getting older. I just permanently deleted the app. The majority of new words/terms added to Urban Dictionary are propaganda or misinformation. It's sad to think that so many people have nothing better to do than spread hate. Apparently it's not limited to social media and is spilling over into a dictionary for slang. Find better use of your time people!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Used to be amusingI used to find this app amusing, even quite useful at times but as of lately not so much. Ever since I started receiving the word of the day notification it’s constantly some liberal anti-Trump definition or example. I’m certainly not offended but I just don’t find it amusing any longer especially during a world wide crisis like we’re ALL going through right now. Not to mention I’m certain that during certain past administrations this app wouldn’t be used in this manner. Deleted the app..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Abandoned app???Hey, Urban Dictionary, have you abandoned your app? The last update was two years ago!?!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ IPod5 or wifi?This app is really good.... When I get it to work most of the time it take forever to load then says something went wrong I check my wifi it's fine I can go on any other app but this one could you please fix this problem!.Version: 1.2
✓ How do I enter a new word???I would give you 4 stars but I can't enter new words! 😣 I'm sorry! Please fix it! Please?.Version: 1.2
✓ Good and badGood app as it informs you of all the slang and street lingo also informs you about the latest definition that are used in today’s society!!! Bad because it only works on WiFi not on 3g or 4g Please fix this problem.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Great, but dull logoLong time user. Helps me traverse the ever widening conversational cavern between myself and the kids. Why the dull new branding/logo? A circle in preset colour pallet blue? A minor matter, but still. Serious snooze..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Old and outdatedThis app hasn’t been updated in almost a year. There have been so many updates and improvements to the iOS and other apps..Version: 3.5.1
✓ CrashesWith the new iOS 13 update on my iPhone XR I can’t open the app. It starts loading and just crashes right away. Can’t use the app at all so I end up using the online version of the dictionary... plz fix.Version: 3.4.0
✓ October 2021Have used for a number of years as a translator when I’m with my children or their friends. Now not opening on my iPhone 11pro. Have deleted and reinstalled a couple of times. Still won’t open. Help.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Please remove Ads..It's an OK app.. But Ads should be removed.. It's annoying...Version: 1.2
✓ Broken.Doesn’t load up 99% of the time for some reason. Waste of time just use the website..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Bug that keep swiping right to leftThere’s a bug in this app.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Too politically biasedWhen going to the front page all see is politically charged definitions and not anything worth reading When I used to go to the front page I saw stuff like Ballcuzi or Johnny Sins with tons of likes and barely any dislikes. But now when I go to the front page I see Milkshake cop or Generational privilege with only a few likes and several dislikes. What changed is that the main page is now used to get an agenda crammed into the minds of younger people who use the site, instead of factual descriptions that everyone regarding of political association can enjoy. Put short it's now a political cesspool.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Why so dirty?! :(All I wanted was to find the meaning for 'euphoria' but the first thing I read made me sick..Version: 1.2
✓ Long press app iconHave it so that long pressing the app icon will bring up quick actions, with one being search. This would be a quicker way to invoke a definition search..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Weird flashing when offlineWeird flashing when offline and can’t see offline bookmarks.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Needs IOS 13 updateIOS 13 has since arrived and this dictionary is now absolutely broken. It no longer works;.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Works fine, but...Why create an app which is of lower quality than visiting in safari?.Version: 1.2
✓ Urban dictionaryI just got the app today I think it’s pretty cool and fun but as I read other reviews I’m starting to doubt the app but so far I’m doing well. I think this app helps you understand the word better because in normal dictionaries they give you long words you just don’t understand but thanks to the urban dictionary I can actually understand the actually teenage version of the word. The reason I’m giving this app a one star is because I just got the app today and I haven’t explored it much so I still don’t know if their are a few down sides to the app. But so far the app is really well and some definitions are really funny I really recommend it.❤️.Version: 3.2.0
✓ It's 2015, but this app looks 2013I don't get how something as big as urban dictionary doesn't have an iOS 7/8 optimised app yet..Version: 1.2
✓ 3.5 out of 5The app is ok, I guess it is better than having to use the online version on a tiny phone but the side scrolling is annoying either get rid of it or fix it in a update.Version: 1.2
✓ Full of Worthless ContentIs a decently cool app and used to have funny and useful definitions. Unfortunately, Urban Dictionary has been overrun with people posting their own names with horrendously favorable definitions (extremely pathetic), or proper Nouns of things with opinions strapped onto them. The app is just not worth having anymore unless they put more effort into sifting through the garbage..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Good when it works...Unfortunately most of the time it doesn’t..Version: 3.5.1
✓ RubbishIt does not load up.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Thought it would be better…Honestly, I thought the app would be better than it is. I’m not finding any place to sign in or out. I’m not finding any way to report hateful definitions. And the version history clearly shows that this app hasn’t been updated for at least a year. If the developers work on making the app better, and more accessible, I would definitely be willing to update my review, because I do use urban dictionary semi-often..Version: 3.5.1
✓ App doesn’t workWhen app is loaded, all it says is no connection, reloading and reinstalling does not work either.Version: 3.2.0
✓ Doesn’t work with iOS 13App doesn’t load. Crashes on boot..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Reviews needed!Please can I have some RECENT review before I download this app. Thanks a bunch!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ DELETED after 5 minutesAbsolutely useless. Mobile web version so much better, this app has no use in this life..Version: 1.2
✓ Not working on iOS 14Can anyone confirm this??.Version: 3.5.1
✓ HmmThe app's okay... - back & forward button and (maybe) a favourite list, that'd be good - scroll's a little iffy but not really concerning - Awesome if it was an offline app (though might be a lot of work) I look forward to the future improvements :3.Version: 1.2
✓ GlitchApps starting to glitch.Version: 3.5.1
✓ UselessRetarded Worthless application refuses to connect to the Internet..Version: 3.3.3
✓ StillThe only thing this app needs to be just immaculate is that it should work offline and it should have a favorite/bookmark bar cuz our heads aren’t immune from forgetting so we need to get back to history or what we hearted..Version: 3.2.0
✓ No push notificationsVersion 3.3.3 highlights push notifications for word of the day but they don’t seem to work and there doesn’t seem to be any setting within the app to enable/disable. In Settings on iOS 12, I have notifications turned on for the Urban Dictionary app but still have not received any push notification. Reports to support have gone unacknowledged..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Won't workInstalled it and it won't even open..Version: 1.1
✓ Well...Installed the app thinking that it would be much easier than using Safari to search something up. And I’m sure that would be the case, if the blasted thing would connect to the internet....Version: 3.3.3
✓ WinnipegSo about winnipeg is really rude to people in winnipeg its like saying girls are the most ugliest people in usa (which they aren't) like how do they feel they feel bad so make a good thing about it our just dont say anything about it and its coming from a lot of people in winnipeg.Version: 1.2
✓ Good except 1 thingIt works well in everything (home page, searching) but when you like a certain amount of posts (often times just 3-4) the whole app restarts and it’s quite annoying. Overall good app but please fix this one bug for possible 5 star..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Doesn’t workSince the latest update it says no connection, reinstalling doesn’t work either..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Dead Product?Doesn’t start anymore iOS 14+ ... lots of flashing, not a lot of starting ... hasn’t been updated much recently.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Push notifications doesn’t work!!On my iOS 9 and iOS 10 devices, push notifications don’t work but on my iOS 11 devices, it does work! Fix the issue with push notifications not working on iOS 9 and iOS 10 devices please!!!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Fun distractionLots of helpful and funny slang, but also lots of pointless junk - no editors like some wikis. Not suitable for children or wimps..Version: 1.2
✓ Terrible and racistRacist developers this is all is a place for racist to degrade others.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Not working since 14.0Great app, and nobody cares about the snowflake Republican spammers with their 1-star votes and who always find some reason to feel offended and persecuted (NOBODY needs to find a “safe space” more than the perpetually wounded conservative feelings in their App Store reviews—how ironic). But ever since iOS 14.0, the app has stopped working. It’s a splash screen that never loads. Please fix and I’ll revise my rating back to 5 stars..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Disgusting app.This app is filled with vulgarity, the users use it to post personal messages, like defining their own names as awesome, while filling the contents of the words that they submit with sexual atrocity. There is one real word for every 50 sex related, gratuitous, inappropriate, foul entry. The app and dictionary gets no supervision from management, and should be deleted from the App Store for policy violations..Version: 3.5.1
✓ InappropriateFirst of all its offensive disgusting and rude I looked up friends name and it called her a bunch of Names.Version: 1.2
✓ Does not work anymoreWhat’s what with this app.I upgraded my iPhone to the new operating system, and this won’t work anymore. I deleted the app and reloaded it again. It still doesn’t work. It says it won’t connect to the Internet flashing on the screen, and the app and never opens up..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Doesn’t work.I downloaded the app and the loading screen kept glitching out. i waited for ages but nothing ever came up. i even redownloaded it a couple of times. is this happening for anyone else?.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Too much politicsUrban dictionary is very fun and useful in some measures but they have went out of their way the past while to make the word of the day an anti conservative phrase someone has made up very often and earlier this year it seems to be daily. I am libertarian but it’s annoying to see it be an anti trump anti conservative thing every day. Even an app meant for fun has become political and has become yet another left wing biased media outlet. Stay with the fun words. Maybe throw in an anti trump thing on the word of the day just once a month if it’s popular. Not every third day..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Crashes nowSince iOS 13 it now crashes when you open it. Good app but please fix this..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Just doesn't workEvery time I open the app it says there is a connection error. But the ads have no trouble loading.Version: 2.1
✓ Wouldn’t openI downloaded it and it wouldn’t even open. Tried multiple times. Unsuccessful every time..Version: 3.5.1
✓ After last update doesn’t workFigwheel to load the files ??????.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Glitch?I’m not sure what going on but when I downloaded and tried to open the app it just stayed on the loading screen and kept glitching to what I’m guessing is the home screen and then back to the loading screen, I have deleted and re downloaded this app multiple times but it still does the same thing??.Version: 3.3.3
✓ And error occurred?So I have just got this app and haven’t been able to go into it because ‘an error occurred’ no matter how much times I reset my phone or the app, that message always pops up as it means I cannot go into the app. Please fix this bug!!! I would appreciate it very much..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Good content, Terrible scrollingHow can you get a simple task like smooth scrolling wrong? Would love an update to fix this..Version: 1.2
✓ No personal account or favourite wordsI expected that I can view my favourite words that I've added on the website in this app, but there's nothing between two of them. I would rather use just the website version..Version: 2.0
✓ Good, but glitchyIt’s really slow and glitches and crashed a lot.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Bug foundThe app doesn't display results anymore. Upon opening the application, I am greeted with a message saying the following: "Something went wrong, tap to try again." Please fix this bug! (Tried restarting the app & phone multiple times).Version: 1.2
✓ No Dark Mode?App is good, the lack of a dark mode ruins it. Burns my eyes..Version: 3.5.1
✓ I need to log inIt will be great if I can log in... Otherwise, I do my need to download this app since I could simply go to the web version.Version: 2.0
✓ Was Great-But Now Crashes OftenI’ve had this for years now and have loved it! BUT-it now seems to be crashing quite often. (iPhone 7 Plus) Would love to give it 5 Stars until this problem started occurring. Hopefully, this problem will be addressed in the very near future. When it is I’ll either update this review, or write another and give this app 5 stars. Many thanks!!.Version: 3.2.0
✓ UpgradesThis app has taken at least weeks if not months to load and upgrade!!! 😮👎🏿.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Is it having a spazum?Ok I’m texting this really dirtyminded person and he said something that I don’t know what it means I look up urban dictionary online and it says safari cannot reach I download the app and I start opening and glitch* glitch* glitch* Like are u having a spazum.Version: 3.3.3
✓ BrokenThe app doesn’t load up anymore. Please fix.Version: 3.5.1
✓ RacistThis dictionary contains entries which are clear breaches of racial vilification legislation and these entries are simple abusive, not funny or the least bit witty. Had to put one star just to be able to post this warning..Version: 1.2
✓ What is thisWhat the hell are you thinking it doesn’t work.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Major issuesThis app is so glitchy, can’t even get into it most of the time and none of the pages load properly.Version: 3.3.3
✓ App is brokenCrashes on startup..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Doesn’t workIOS 12.4.1 doesn’t work.Version: 3.4.0
✓ No accessThe app refuses to open, keeps on saying ‘no internet ‘. Wake up guys, fix your app.Version: 3.1.0
✓ It automatically likes/dislikes definitions for meAnd it leaves out a lot of the top definitions you get from the website version and I think that's totally gay.Version: 2.0
