I get a lot of use out of it. ### 5/5 — Saved my bacon more than a few times! *2022-04-13, version 3.2* I work as a temp attorney on projects for BigLaw. Sometimes, particularly in large meetings, I don’t have any idea what the acronyms mean, so I write them down and look them up in Acronym Finder as soon as I’m back at my own desk. The vocabulary drives my understanding, and Acronym Finder gives me enough of a vocabulary foundation to work effectively even on projects in areas of law in which I don’t yet have experience. Thanks! ### 5/5 — This app is very good *2022-04-07, version 1.4* Thanks for very good application ### 5/5 — Well done *2021-12-23, version 3.2* Well done ### 5/5 — Khalid hubbah *2021-09-28, version 3.2* Great app, one of the best in Acronym Apps category. Very elaborated, expanded & detailed Acronym finder. I highly recommended it for all professions. Thank you developers for your efforts. ### 5/5 — Simple *2021-09-24, version 3.2* … useful and funny! ### 5/5 — Not much else to say but.... *2021-07-15, version 3.2* ....5 ⭐️’s. If I could give it six, I would. ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2021-05-26* I usually NEVER do this, but as an individual who watches a lot of law enforcement (read armed forces and alphabet agency related) films and television I’m unfamiliar with the acronyms. I’m a medical professional, so the medicalese that’s utilized in dialogue is simply second nature to me and easy to comprehend. I am so appreciative to have a handheld resource upon which I can can refer. This app is truly remarkable, I love it!♥️👍🏻 ### 5/5 — So handy ‼️ *2021-04-29, version 3.2* Thanks for being at my fingertips ### 5/5 — Awesome app. *2021-02-17, version 3.2* Never fails to answer the question. ### 5/5 — Acronyms *2021-01-28* A very useful app (in the right hands). Easy to use and timesaving! ### 5/5 — Comprehensive! *2021-01-26* Acronym Finder is the cats meow (CM). I use it often in my reading and research to cut to the chase when I am confronted with an obscure acronym (OA). It is comprehensive and great fun to peruse even when your mystery acronym is completely quotidian (CQ). Seriously, this is a no-joke app with thousands of acronyms cutting across every domain of nomenclature, named institution, named entity, or named phenomenon. ### 5/5 — The go-to App for Acronyms *2021-01-19* This is the most exhaustive source of acronyms I have been able to find. It is critical to my job in supporting the government, as they tend to be acronym heavy. (It also serves as comic relief in reading through the myriad of acronyms for a given term.) ### 5/5 — New and improved! *2021-01-12* So glad my favorite website is back in app form! You’ll use it everyday! **Developer response:** We're glad you're enjoying the app! Thank you for your kind feedback! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App Stuck on Splash Screen *2021-07-05* iOS 14.2 on a 12Pro. Tried reboot, remove and reinstall. Looked for help at the help link (useless points to help using the functioning app), and of course at ‘app support’ which simply dumped me at their web page— not a support page. No real support anywhere. No one else appears to have this problem. I’m not going to reset an otherwise fully functioning device for one problematic unnecessary app. ‘Feedback’ seems to be the only via to query them for some help. Sent feedback 7/5/21. We’ll see. Meanwhile, looking elsewhere. **Developer response:** Thank you for letting us know. Hopefully, you received our response to your email (sent 7/7/21). Unfortunately, we have not been able to reproduce this issue, nor have we received other reports of it, which means that we do not have troubleshooting suggestions at this time (beyond what you have already tried). We will certainly let you know if that changes in the future, and we are very sorry for the inconvenience. ### 1/5 — Insecure much ??? *2021-05-22* I just installed your app. I do TWO searches and... YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT I THINK ????? Come back in a week or two, let me USE IT FOR A WHILE.🤪 ### 1/5 — Get With It *2019-02-22, version 1.4* If you don’t know what “M.A.G.A.” represents in The U.S.A.; then, you’re not much help. ### 1/5 — Completely bloody useless *2016-05-02* App constantly crashes when you try to use it so is completely bloody useless. Rebooted my IPad over and over again and taken pre-emptive action to get this app to work so there must be a problem with the app! Have now uninstalled and not prepared to waste any more time or memory having this rubbish app on my system! ### 3/5 — Lacking *2022-03-23* App needs the ability to save your own acronyms ### 3/5 — Functional but needs work *2021-01-11* It does the job. Finds you whatever you’re looking for. but when I saw it got an update for iphone x and above after 4 years of silence from the devs, I was honestly a bit excited to see how the app looks now. However, I found out all they did was adding some banner ads to the bottom of the screen as if that was the only thing missing. Now it looks like a crappy app like the rest of the free dictionaries. I wouldn’t mind the ad if the overall look of the app was updated to look “new”. but i feel there was absolutely zero effort involved in making the last version. ### 3/5 — Any update for iPhone 10? *2018-06-19, version 1.4* Why dont you update the all for iPhone X? ### 4/5 — Great app. *2024-08-08* Very informative and accurate, thanks. ### 4/5 — Slang *2023-06-15* Thanks for staying up to date with generational abbreviations online ### 4/5 — Its cool but it could be a little better *2018-01-17, version 1.4* It would be better if they like sorted it from slang and like organizations or whatever ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Acronym finder *2025-11-11, version 5.0* I love this app! I use it almost daily ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-07-23* App is fantastic. **Developer response:** Thank you for your kind feedback! :) ### 5/5 — No contact us? *2025-07-18, version 5.0* App is fantastic. Could not find a contact us email address for them to indicate even though it thinks Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is included in list of acronyms I could not find it. ### 5/5 — Thorough *2025-05-14* Far more through than I thought it would be. Thank you! Fantastic app! ### 5/5 — Professor *2024-10-22, version 5.0* Excellent ### 5/5 — Invaluable *2024-08-26* I keep this app and it’s website open all day as I navigate the news. There’s always new acronyms popping up, as well as older ones I hadn’t read before. And thanks to our adaptive language, acronyms can now be used as nouns, verbs, adjectives etc. ### 5/5 — Handy dandy! *2023-09-14* I love being able to look up acronyms on demand and take away some of the cryptology that acronyms can make modern conversations into. ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-06-19, version 3.5.1* After 2 years from previous review, and still great :) ### 5/5 — Hi *2023-01-07, version 3.2* Brother, hello, the app is not working. Please fix the issue as soon as possible Iphone 8 plus ### 5/5 — Top app *2022-12-28, version 3.2* I love it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
