## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Collins' Thesaurus

*2019-05-22, version 10.0.11*

I knew I had already paid $22.00 for Collins' thesaurus about 6-months ago, but I like to write, so I thought it'd be worth it. It's been a while since I had looked at it, and when I opened it up today, it says "Collins Dictionary".  They have a Thesaurus in the App store, $11.99, so I thought perhaps I'd purchased the incorrect App earlier. Heck, only $12  It "says" "Collins Thesaurus", but I'll be dogged if it isn't exactly the same app I purchased six months ago :( 

My husband is going to blow his top if he finds out how much I paid for two apps and neither one is what I wanted!! Very, very disappointed in BOTH purchases.

### 1/5 — Horrible Interface!

*2015-03-18, version 6.1.3*

This app has a very sloppy interface!  Also for the price it doesn't deliver.  Developer add new features and update the current features!  Also developer make this app more user-friendly.

### 2/5 — No antonuyms at all

*2010-05-01, version 0*

This produict has no antonyms on alomst every word I looked up (unlike "lavish" in the app screen shot). 
Of course it is impossible for Collins Thesaurus to have no antonyms - this is another fake.

### 3/5 — Need update

*2011-08-26, version 3.11*

Not comprehensive. There are some antonyms but not every word. There are example sentences for all word. But link search not useful, for example when look up a word ABSOLVE will give a group of synonyms but when you tap on EXCULPATE , which is a synonym of ABSOLVE, will link to WORD NOT FOUND .Not worth $19.99 until it's updated.

### 5/5 — Love having this in my pocket.

*2021-01-12, version 10.0.11*

I've bought this on Android and IOS, perfect for traveling without data. No writer should be without it.

### 5/5 — 5 stars so you will stop hassling me

*2020-03-19, version 10.0.11*

I’m giving this five stars because the app keeps throwing up requests to give it five stars. Ok, so now will you turn it off and let me use the app I paid for in peace! It certainly does not deserve five stars. It is a good thesaurus but the app is clunky, badly thought out and amateurish. In fact I regret purchasing it. I should gone for Roget’s. They seem to have a better app. This really deserves maybe two stars. But hopefully I can get on without the constant reminders if I give it five stars.

### 5/5 — Great app!!!

*2019-01-26, version 10.0.11*

Thank you

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-11-08, version 10.0.11*

Very up to date!

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2018-01-09, version 10.0.3*

I write a lot and use it everyday.

### 5/5 — Great Time Saver

*2017-10-14, version 8.5.4*

I have used this thesaurus in print form for years, but having it on my iPad saved me hours of time. My iPad sits next to my computer when I am writing and is a very handy tool.
