This app isn’t great. Its ads impede most of the app’s functions, I think, and of course users can opt to purchase the full version to remove those pesky ads. However before I buy an app, I’d like to at least see how well it works, or in this case, how well it may serve my needs. And this just doesn’t measure up.

I’ve tried using this on multiple occasions but each time I search for a word’s definition or synonym, the app lags as both it & I wait for an annoying ad to load. Several times the app has kicked me out completely or frozen, which definitely defeats the app’s purpose. I’m not looking for an app that takes more time to search for a word/offer synonyms than it takes for me to do the legwork on my own. At this point, I’d rather search for the word myself and figure out the synonyms on my own, or by using another app. It’s far too frustrating and not at all worthwhile.

It’s a good idea, yes, but it so poorly executed that it’s just a waste of time.

I wanted to give this app four stars for overall quality. Instead, I find myself giving it one with the wish I could give it none.

Every time I open this app I am prodded to give them 5 stars. Obnoxious. The app doesn't even recall where I left off: dictionary or thesaurus. Great programming. They are so intent on shoving "new words" into the lexicon that they forgot all about the wonderful list of words that need more using. Elegant and eloquent words. But, if they want to reinforce speaking like trash, well they're on the right track. How tragically hip. English used to be a magnificent language, but now that organizations/apps like you and yours keep giving affirmation to the dumbing down of our language, we are being reduced to a bunch of emojis. Great work.

I use a dictionary to find the meaning of words I’ve not seen or heard before. This edition of a dictionary has none of the more recent vocabulary, whether street lingo, social newbies, or technical terms. Also no commonly used foreign words sprinkled within our English. I’ve tried this app about a dozen times and rarely found it useful. I think it came with my iPhone, so it would be Apple that needs to upgrade this embarrassingly useless app.
Recently, I started allowing ‘word of the day’ notifications. Big mistake. Words chosen, said to be at random, are words an average, but well educated, person would seldom need. Today’s was a New Zealand lizard!
Really? Think I’ll need that one soon?
Yet, as said earlier, I read often. Words from France, Germany, etc come up Freqently.
Yet those words can’t be found without paying for your ‘Translate’ version.
One can find them via a Google or Yahoo search! And at no cost.
I’m finding your app less and less worthy. In fact I just took away one star from my earlier rating and plan to turn off your ‘Word of the Day.’
Overall, this app is not useful. I do plan to search for a better one.
