Pros and cons of Collins German Dictionary app for iPhone and iPad

Collins German Dictionary app good for

Very good app. Since German is not the most easy language, the app does a good job. Recommend.
This is the best dictionary that is on the iTunes app store and is just like the actual dictionary
Downloaded this app just recently. Seems generally good and reflects the print edition of this dictionary. But unless Im missing it, there should be a way to clear the history of looked-up words!

Some bad moments

Too concised to be called a real dictionary! The grammar points are such rare that it is not faire to be called dictionary and grammar! In a shell not : I dont recommend it at all!
I hope they would do something with this problem. Otherwise Its unethical.
