About Poet Assistant (English)

A set of offline tools to help with writing poems (currently only English is supported):

* a rhyming dictionary, using the Carnegie Mellon University pronunciation dictionary.
* a thesaurus, using the WordNet thesaurus.
* a dictionary, using the WordNet dictionary.
* a screen where you can enter your poem text, have it read aloud back to you by the device's text-to-speech engine, and see the word/character count.

The dictionaries are built in the app. No internet connection is required to use them.

This app is open source: https://github.com/caarmen/poet-assistant

Permissions:
* Since 1.5.0, the app has the "run at startup" permission for the "Word of the day" feature. If you enable this feature in the settings, when the device reboots, the app makes sure the "word of the day" notification is still scheduled.

Definitely helped me the perfect rhymes for certain words. It also has a thesaurus and a dictionary, and completely offline too! Super love this app.

It will help me. It's good.

Q70%

Shall we say that I just ran into a random app from Playstore and was overwhelmed by it. This app is much more better than some of the established dictionary apps and that too completely offline. It has all the qualities of a productive app and I see no reason why you shouldn't try it. And yeah, great work by the developer(s).

I have not used this app very much yet as I have recently started writing poetry again after many years. I was quickly impressed with the rhymes , thesaurus and dictionary uses in the app though. Very useful and time saving. Thank you for this app.????

Q70%
by Q####:

I'm extremely happy with it, it's helped my vocabulary and hasn't let me down with spelling queries yet.

Y70%
by Y####:

With some words even though they do (in fact rhyme) the meaning can be totally different. Which can lead to it not making any sense at all because its unrelated. I personally think rather than just having random words that rhyme. It's best to find words that rhyme but also go along with your poem.

A70%
by A####:

Good and really helpful! Would be 5* if it told you how many syllables a word had

N70%

Almost perfect..............

K70%
by K####:

The words of the day are very bland and basic, mostly using the word itself in it's definition.

O70%

This is what i needed as a poet.

B70%
by B####:

Great app

Q70%
by Q####:

Excellent way to find rhymes, but the dictionary is very basic and limited. Verbs are only recognised in their initial base form, so searches like flown or written yield no results.

Y70%
by Y####:

This is the only dictionary installed on my phone because it's functional, easy to use, ad-free and offline. Just one request to the developer: please have the option to have a default page set. For instance, I use the app's dictionary most of the time so it would be wonderful if I could set the app to open on the dictionary page by default.

Q70%
by Q####:

Simply superb. Not sure, whether any other app can offer rhymes along with the meanings, thesaurus, word lookup from the installed dictionaries, Google Translate and such all-in-one features under one roof. Very handy.

by Q####:

Helps a lot ... Very well done .. thanks

A70%
by A####:

How do I turn off the feature of showing rhymer, dictionary and thesaurus everytime I select a word (even outside the app)?? It's really bugging me to have that on my screen when I don't want it. ????

Q70%
by Q####:

Works as long there is a rhyme found. The 'last syllable' result is so annoying and fills up the list reaching max limit at words starting with 'b'... In my opinion this feature should be removed.

It's great

Q70%
by Q####:

The app works fine although may need a little fine tuning on picking up all rhymes. 1 extra filter would make this my beloved app and that's a syllable filter i.e rhymes with can + 2 syllables etc. It's purely convenience as the app already breaks it down nicely in results.

C70%
by C####:

I love this app, as it helps me out with rhyming words, and also has a thesaurus. Truly a boon to write well. I especially love the fact that the rhymes are either strict, or loose, and also the synonyms come for each and every usage of a particular word!

Crashes when open. Not working.

To keep it simple and short. This app is great.
