Latest update

For me the app has been spoiled by the latest update with the double line spacing. It means a lot more scrolling as you see only half what could be seen before. And the banner advert is twice as big. Why not give a choice in settings?
Things I’d like to see are better linking in the thesaurus which seems to throw in random words with tenuous connections and yet missing out obvious ones with similar meaning. Also the word list seems have many words which are not in the internal dictionary nor in the separate dictionaries. If you’re going to include a word then you ought be able to find a definition.

Sorry to hear that, I went for a more aesthetic look for the results, but as you suggest I can add a setting to display them in a compact format. Unfortunately Google have deprecated the ad banners that the app uses and replaced them with the larger banners, I hope they see sense and keep the old format. You can remove the ad by making a small one off payment (no subscriptions here!). The thesaurus search goes 2 levels deep, the 1st level returns closely related words and then a second search is performed on each of those words. I'll take a look at the algorithm again, it's a trade-off of keeping the app simple but functional. The main word list is over 300K words and is compiled from many sources whereas the definitions and thesaurus are provided by WordNet which has 100k words. I do manually add definitions when users send in new words but it's a Sisyphean task! There are a few other open source dictionaries that are on my to-do list to research, but with each update the words lists and dictionaries do improve. Many thanks for the constructive and very helpful feedback, hopefully the next update will be in a month and I'll try to address all of the issues you've raised. Mark - developer

Wow! CSK sharply reduces the time it takes to solve a Wordle puzzle. The main tricks are to use the Exclude Words field and Reg Exp field.

CSK works great offline, including dictionary definitions, so a boon if you cannot go online. The native user interface has been streamlined for iOS devices and is a lot less clunky than a generic web interface. The app also has powerful filters to refine your searches, something that many website versions do not feature.

Is this app free

Seems good Is it free ?

Thanks for the review. Yes, the app is totally free, it is funded by showing a small banner ad at the bottom of the screen.

Would be totally lost without this app ….the absolute best and so easy to use !! However I am now unable to use the app properly, because when I input a word, then try to get the definition from dictionary.com I get a screen saying “ no result for the word. It applies to all the other options too !!!! Can you help ? Ps CSK dictionary appears on a separate page !!

Great app

This app is simple to use and gives you words that match letter patterns. It can even do anagrams for you. Really nice clean interface and the ads are unobtrusive. You can also select a word it gives you and it hops you over to Google to see the word meaning.
