I would give it a five if it didn’t bounce around quite so much with my “Brain equivalents .” Also, along with Wikipedia, I believe they have the 1997 Soviet union’s Encyclopedia mentioned on occasion as reference material. I have no idea why.
Love it!
To have such a most excellent resource to be conveniently found as a phone app only makes it more beloved. Whatever you missed or have forgotten from your various English classes can be made up for, clarified or expanded upon in this wonderful resource. I’ve had it for years and pretty much use it daily. Definitions, pronunciations, spellings, grammatical use, history and so much more. I treasure this app!

Essential in this day and age!
I really enjoy learning a new word, every day. I love flexibility of there being a “Thesaurus” available. There’s an entire section on just “Idioms.” It’ll read the word, so I can learn the correct pronunciation. I hear so many mispronounced words, today! There are word games, spelling challenges, historical facts, etc. it’s much, much more than just “ a dictionary”! I have the paid version and I wholeheartedly recommend it!

Advertised feature doesn’t work
One of the main reasons I bought this was because it’s supposed to let you highlight a word and get the definition via the Share Sheet which would save you from having to copy the word and paste it into another app, but that isn’t working. Instead it says “Not supported. We are sorry, this app is no longer supported. Please switch to one of the currently supported apps.“ The app is listed there so I hope they get this working again. Their email support says they’re working on it. Five stars await.
Besides that issue, it’s a very useful app. It shows a wide spectrum of information which saves me from having to look things up in multiple places. The UI could use a tiny bit of refinement but overall I like that it’s fast, not fancy.
