Love the daily word. Unlike a page-a-day calendar, I don't feel like I have to read it daily, and I can go back and see missed days if I want. Word lookup is simple and internet-free. Being able to hear pronunciation is a bonus.

Bought the app and loved it! Just a suggestion though, can you make it a "floating dictionary"? I hate it when I don't know the meaning of a work and I still have to open the app.. :( It will be easier and more useful for all of us. Thank you! 5 stars for you!

Good dictionary, nice word-of-the-day feature. HOWEVER I strongly dislike that the detailed information given on the word-of-the-day page IS NOT available on the standard definition page! If you star a word to look at later, it will not have the same nice level of detail!

Unable to register an account have made this app not user friendly. Everytime I change my phone, my favourite/saved words are gone and I have to start all over again.

FINE !!! I'll rate the app i paid for ... just leave me alone, already !! the app incessantly requests a rating, like a person with low self-esteem. the WOD fails to provide words which one might fine useful ; like a foreign language WOD which fails to increase or cement one's vocabulary, this is a terrible failure. the articles often cannot be long-pressed, denying the user a definition or the ability to copy text ... let's see ... all-in-all an OK app. happy ?

by K####:

...in the premium paid version also it accesses Internet and takes too much time to open. My expectation is that most of the dictionary will be in my phone and it will open instantaneously whether off line or online. It is sad that they don't tell you about this before taking your money.

Z70%
by Z####:

I am a writer. For writing to flow well and to be enticing proper use of words is mandatory. This app's Dictionary & Thesaurus do their job. I disagree with Dictionary sending me obscure words of no value in prose or colloquial English.

K70%
by K####:

Too much aggressive pushing of LGBTQ biases. Other than that it has potential to be a great and useful app, but at this point I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending it to the impressionable masses of today's youth.

M70%
by M####:

I say odour & get ogre. For at least half of the words I want, I'm given completely unrelated words. Also a good many words can't be found in this dictionary and thesaurus so you have to go to the internet instead.

F70%
by F####:

Google user When I purchased it along with the the green reference book. I'm no longer able to find the it. The Reference book. It is hiding somewhere? How is a it accessed? Or is it no longer available? I paid extra to have it a long time ago. And now, I just cannot find it! Any tips or has it been deleted without my knowledge. I haven't been able to access it the green reference book for a very long time.? Sad

O70%
by O####:

Because we can't sign in any longer and I put the app on a new phone, my favorite words have disappeared! This isn't the first time they've disappeared from your app. You've also gotten rid of contact/feedback info!

J70%
by J####:

Stay out of politics!! The word of year (complicit) article did not need to go down the road of being critical of the current presidential administration.. people don't want to be lectured to by this app, so stick to words and definitions! Otherwise great app!

F70%
by F####:

Only thing I wish for is a login system. That way I can carry over my saved/favorite words in case I switch phones.

W70%
by W####:

Best dictionary I have ever had. The only thing I'm not happy with is If you have many words in favourites, when you come back from a particular word's page to favourites' list, it starts from beginning and we need to scroll down to select next word each and every time.

R70%
by R####:

Articles associated with words are hard left politically. Oxford English dictionary is unimiginably better, more words, and no politically correct additives with articles. Am going to uninstall and install the old one I used to have with Oxford.

Below is my original review. My revised review - THIS APP SUCKS! I have the Premium version, with every possible upgrade. Total cost, about $15.00. Well worth the expense. REVISION : 02/23/17 - I used to think this was the best dictionary available. Today - in comparison to THE FREE DICTIONARY - this dictionary is definitely NOT anywhere near the GREAT dictionary that the FREE DICTIONARY is!!! 07/17/17 - I still think the FREE DICTIONARY PAID VERSION is leaps & bounds better. But I have given a second star to this app. 08-16-17 Cut the boo-hooing Evelyn... I think you have a 2????⭐ app in comparison to the FREE DICTIONARY!

None of the blue links in the articles, blogs, etc work (at least on my phone) Repeatedly tapping on them does nothing... Other than that, I'm enjoying the app.

K70%
by K####:

I liked it enough that I decided to buy the full version. However, I find that the majority of time that I use it, only the dictionary, thesaurus, learners, maybe origin, examples, and grammar if you're lucky seem to work. All the other uses for it such as encyclopedia, idioms, medical, science, Rhymes and slang don't seem to function at all. Give me what I paid for and I'll rate it 5 stars. Actually I take that back. I just noticed you put my three stars in there but yet you forgot to put my comment along with it. I now regret buying it, for the sole reason that you are unfair when it comes to your ratings. You don't mind putting the Stars up but if you don't like the comments you won't add them. Shame on you.

I'd like the company to spend less energy on breezy blog entries, silly stock photography, and other insipid ephemera in favor of just doing a better job with the words in their database. Too often I find myself reaching for a real dictionary if I need a decent etymology or if the word is in any way obscure. And with few exceptions, the "premium" columns (origins, grammar, encyclopedia, etc.) are completely empty for each word, making me wonder if they're just for show. Otherwise it's great. UPDATE: Everything I complained about has markedly improved over the past year or so. The hipster blogginess still rankles me a bit, but that's just a matter of taste, and I'm sure mine is in the minority.

Great dictionary. Trustworthy and authoritative! Well done!!! ????However, you should do something with translation because the translation thru Google is a disaster...☹(and you should already have been informed by non-native Anglo American speakers).

I love this app. I use it most every day. I've started doing a lot of research into the bible and there are quit a few words I have never heard or didn't know the meanings, and the app as helped me a lot.

Great dictionary/thesaurus app foot online or offline look-up. I like the word of the day feature and some of the blog entries are entertaining and informative.

Themed slideshows are a brilliant idea ????????????

This dictionary is my resource that I access on a daily basis. I love the features like playing how the word is pronounced. Word of the Day is another treat I like about this app. My daily goto app.

I I look forward to the "word of the day" and try to use it in a sentence that day. I have learned so much about the English language. Love this app.

Great app! Has helped my writing tremendously by introducing more formal words than common everyday vernacular.

by T####:

Love this app. Use it extensively and it has never let me down. It's real easy to use and has an excellent layout for the different options. Try a couple of other dictionary apps but this one far outshone them! And the cost is well worth the investment. Many thanks to you developers and please keep up your fantastic work, I think you make a lot of people very HAPPY :o) ????!!!!

by K####:

Love this app! It's always the first app I put on any new device I get. So nice to have an extensive dictionary on hand when I need help with spelling when texting or emailing. Because of health issues I added the medical dictionary which has helped me with the spelling and the definitions of the medical terminology I encounter when filling out questionnaires or reading about the meds I take. I'd recommend this app to anyone looking for a dictionary that's informative, helpful, and easy to use. Thanks guys for a job well done!

by K####:

great app, even w/o the premium upgrade. I'm a published author and I love having such a comprehensive tool that doesn't require more than one app or 7 different reference books.. I have only abstained from purchasing the encyclopedia b/c wikipedia does the trick (most of the time).. word nerds, unite! ????

K70%
by K####:

Love this app but can you please update your dated ass widget please. I can't resize it or adjust the opacity of the widget background and it would be nice to have the option. Especially because I love the word of the day! I really do love challenging myself by trying to incorporate word of the day into my vocabulary. However the widget is an eyesore and I don't want it on my home page because of that. Adding the things I suggested would do wonders.
