Excellent for writers, authors, poets (like me, so..

A few suggestions imo would make this app the absolute best. 1. Syllable count. Just a simple “Syllables: #” under the phonetic pronunciation. Idk what you wrote the app in but there are several modules for several different languages that do this. Python has one called syllables. Import syllables >sybCount=syllables.estimate(“hello”) >>>return sybCount ##(or print but most likely using a function to swap out the parameter in the syllable.estimate() method to the word being displayed to the user)## I feel like it would be an easy enough addition if not just having to tinker with your functions and calling objects with different methods (again I have no idea how what your app is coded in. Seems like it could be Xcode it also seems sorta like python but it could be freaking kotlin 😂.. ) And lastly 2. A favorites list. I will leave this up to you guys to figure out a fun way to call back a users favorite words for future use. And extra credit bonus request: You know those fridge magnets that are just a bunch of common and not so common words with a few “the”s and “a”s and “i”s and “of”s and the point is to rearrange them into fun or clever little sayings, quotes, poems, whatever…. This could be a great idea generator for poets and writers/authors. Give them a list of mixed (like a 4:2:1 ratio) of common and intermediate and advanced words that we could play with and come up with ideas…. I would pay a small one time fee for the extra credit request but please don’t EVER go subscription or I will change it to 1 star and delete the app immediately. But I seriously LOVE this app and use it every day!! Thank you!!!

Lekses

I like this app a lot however it hasn’t worked in the past week

Better than a dictionary, thesaurus and expert opinion all rolled into one.

My go to place for vocab. Keep up the good work.

A word reference second to none!

👋🏼fellow word nerd here. I’ve been using Lekses (clever name btw) for a week or so and I just love it. The right modifiers are especially nice. The look and feel of the app is very calming and I wouldn’t change a bit. Even for a heavy dark mode user, I find it appealing. Don’t get fooled by the “dictionary” in the app title; it’s as addictive as TikTok!

Yes! Haha Thank you!

Simple, to the point

I came across this app from TikTok. After the first use, I immediately deleted my Dictionary app. This app is so much more approachable, simplistic and still provides a plethora of synonyms, antonyms and the definition itself; love it! As it progress, I would love to see a flash card setting, where you can randomize words you’ve looked up to help in remembering the definition for the long term. Love the app! Keep up the great work!

Thank you for the suggestion! A flashcard setting is on the horizon for later this summer! I believe flashcards are a great way for people to learn vocabulary and would be an excellent complement to the app. I can't wait to build and share it with you. Thank you for leaving a review!

Improve vocabulary

Powerful tool to develop and enhance vocabulary

Nice

I like the app but I think adding audio pronunciations would have been great

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you for the feedback! Pronunciations are currently available with the app via the blue play button on the detail screen for each word. Some words of the more advanced words do not have pronunciations yet, but this will change with the next update!

Best vocab app I’ve used!

Definitions are easy to understand and I like the variety of synonyms, antonyms, rhymes, etc. I also like the simplicity of the design. Being able to search for a word by definition and choose reminder repetitions/times are really what make the app great.

Response from developer

Thank you so much! ❤️

Found by Tik Tok

I really love this app I write a lot on a day-to-day basis so I am very picky about word of the day apps. It’s so easy to maneuver and I love all the suggestions it gives for one word to expand your vocabulary. Highly recommend for those looking to sound more articulate!

Response from developer

Thank you so much! So happy you are enjoying the app!

Entrancing

As an educator, I find this app to be fascinating and magnificent. It’s utterly entrancing.
