While the lists of words are nice, or I thought they were, there is definitely some trouble with the definitions. Defining a word with that word makes no sense. However, that is not my most egregious complaint. As I was scrolling through the word lists that I thought were the ‘nice’ part of the app I was reading antonyms for rigorous and found away with the fairies, atypical and bedridden. Are you suggesting that people who are atypical, mentally ill (that is an ableist term but I understand that it is a thesaurus) or in bed for a time cannot be rigorous? If that is something people are suggesting, and in our ableist society I understand where they got the idea, but they are in fact, wrong. Disabled people, not all, but many, have the capacity to be rigorous. Should they care to be. You might think it is just how people define words. But it is your app. Of course you don’t seem to mind about the definitions. Why would you mind about a bit of ableism?

I have used this app and told others about it for a few years. The greatest feature, which set it apart, was the ability not only to search for synonyms of the main word, but then to organize the search results by the first letter. In previous versions this was easily done by simply typing the letter I needed the word to start with in the list search box. Please restore this feature and it will immediately become a 5 star app once again!

I've always had a relatively large vocabulary, but this resource is SO helpful at finding alternate and more impactful words, that I find myself using it a LOT and it's helped to recover a lot of the vocabulary that just starts slipping through the cracks when speaking in today's barely literate world. I love it! The only gripe I have about it is that it's just an interface to the website. I'd happily pay a few bucks to have a local database that syncs to the website periodically. Then this would be a 5 star app. It is a drag to have to copy and paste into a separate app rather than just get a list of the alternates within your current app, but there's nothing they can do about that unless Apple implements something like macOS Services in iOS. They even put a lot of thought into the rating request dialog. It is a polite button, not a pop-up, and it very respectfully asks if you'd like to rate now or later without interrupting what you're doing. This is a smart developer, because nothing makes the number of stars I'm apt to give drop faster than an annoying pop-up that wants me to rate the app before I've even had a chance to use it! Kudos!
