### 2/5 — Problem

*2019-12-05*

No response to my earlier comments.

### 3/5 — Error message

*2019-07-25, version 2.0*

Why am I getting this message
Database error (moby-thes), try again later

I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled it but happens every time I use the thesaurus

### 5/5 — Crosswords

*2018-11-16, version 2.0*

Always good to keep the brain active

### 4/5 — None

*2016-12-11*

Very good and easy.  Helpful for Acrostics.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2014-08-20*

For those last few crossword answers you can't get. A must have for crossword addicts. Slight inconvenience: works only in landscape view. But works well. Bonus - it has a dictionary to look up the word(s) you found.

### 5/5 — Excellent.
