My Favorite Dictionary
I love this app and use it daily. It’s placed at the bottom right on the screen so that it’s always available. I even have a paper copy on my night table. I have other dictionaries, but this is my favorite.
Great dictionary. Great app.
American heritage is one of my favorite dictionaries. So I am very happy it’s available on the Apple devices. This app doesn’t have silly bugs. It’s very stable. Good product and I think the $20 for this dictionary was money well spent.
YES!
I finally got my favorite dictionary back when I was using the app thru ENFOUR I was always losing it every time. My iPad had to be updated. I bought it way too many times but now I bought it through MOBI systems and I have had no problems. It’s my good old favorite. Yes I had to pay $20 again but it was worth it. I love this dictionary it’s the best there ever was has the Hebrew and Greek meanings of words pictures it is invaluable to me in my personal study of the Bible and I use this dictionary all the time

Meh
It's needs a refresh. It feels like the designers don't actually use the app.
Best English Dictionary
I've used this dictionary for many decades through multiple editions and am delighted with the electronic version, which makes access even easier. Its special strengths, beyond very well thought out definitions, are excellent attention to etymology and explicit discussions of usage panel recommendations and sometimes disagreements. I was disappointed a year ago that my purchase did not carry over to a new iPad and I had to buy it again, and a third purchase came with a new iPhone. The management company could solve this only if I could come up with my original receipts and it wasn't worth searching for them. That's flaky, to be sure, but the quality of the dictionary is worth it anyway.

Good dictionary
Like the pronunciation feature, the images if applicable and been able to jump to words in the definition.
Good App. Incessant and annoying prompts to rate.
Excellent dictionary. Pretty nice app. Positive feelings about the app, however, are destroyed by the annoying prompts to rate the app. It seems every time I open it, I'm forced to click through a prompt to review the app. I'm working and want a definition. I don't want to be slowed down by intrusive prompts. I've finally given in and am reviewing in the hopes that the prompts will go away.

Annoying pop-ups every time you open
I literally was forced to review this app because of a pop-up that will not go away. What a disingenuous (to use a word) way to “earn” a reputation. Folks, the AHD content is excellent and licensed to a variety of apps. Some apps are designed better than others to deliver the same licensed content. This one annoys me. Even though it does have some good features.

At the Ready
The AH dictionary is available at any time to increase your knowledge of our glorious English language. I appreciate the derivation of many words as well as the available synonyms. Very easy to use. I've had hard copies of AHD from the first one issued. Worth the cost.
Redesign
Just don’t like the redesign near as much as the old. Upon launching the screen choices are more about selling the app to other (rate the app and share with friends). Generally speaking I want my dictionary to be a dictionary. Not some social app.
Oil Great dictionary
The ability to speak a word you don’t know how to spell is awesome but the navigation could use some work. Also the thesaurus doesn’t seem to work. Otherwise it is a great tool.
Nothing like It
And now it is even batter. I have relied on American Heritage fir over 50 years. This App raises the bar.
Worth the while
This dictionary respects and reflects American usage, while also illuminating a window into how lots of words got to where they are now.
I also enjoy the pronunciation and thesaurus features of this app.

Good Helpful
I find this dictionary very helpful. It is always there whenever I need it.
Great dictionary but crashes now
This app crashes on iphone 12 and ios 14.1
Highly Recommend
This is the dictionary recommended by the beloved Mr. Robert Holladay, World Literature and Classic Film Society teacher. I took one with me to college and have favored it ever since. This digital version lives up to the American Heritage standard. It is wonderful to have a copy of this great book as close as our devices no matter where we are.

I’ve found “American Heritage” to be superior to Webster’s, and this EXCELLENT app is a must for serious readers. I refer to it often as I read on my Kindle app.

Eclectic
American Heritage provides an up to date experience for word searchers, unlike the staid attitudes of other dictionaries.
American Heritage
The word of the day should be useful, not random names and words that no one has ever even heard of, nor wants to hear of! It's a waste of my screen time!
So far so good
Great app. The paid version is worth it.
