Pros and cons of WordUP Finnish LITE ~ Mirai Language Systems app for iPhone and iPad

WordUP Finnish LITE ~ Mirai Language Systems app good for

Loving this app so far. Ive tried a few others that werent quite as effective. Just gotta keep at it.
This was the only one that repeats it for you without buying the full version. THIS IS THE BEST APP FOR LEARNING FINNISH! Kiitos!!

Some bad moments

App has a nice UI but it is more a list of words than a "dictionary". The list is small and definitions consist of single words. Its unclear how much better the situation is in the paid app because the developers cant be bothered to write a proper description of the free one that tells what the difference is from the paid one (in terms of dictionary size, features, etc.). They just copy over their description from the paid app to the free one, which kind of seems like false advertising to me. Other problems include nonfunctional links in the app for sending feedback and bug reports. Clicking them just crashes the app. (Kind of funny, yes.)
