Scam
Where is my refund?
Saved words
Great app ruined by a poorly thought out update, removing core features which every similar app has without explanation was a terrible decision
They Took Back What Was Paid For
I would give zero, or even negative stars, if it were possible to do so in these reviews.
I had the paid, as-free version of this app for years. It used to allow you to download the dictionary database for offline use - something I found invaluable. You also used to be able to favorite and save words, and the developers in their very questionable “wisdom” removed that as well. Basically leaving an ad-ridden shell of the app I previously considered one of the most valuable apps on my devices. I want my money back at the very least, but they won’t even be doing that, you can be sure. I don’t know of the company changed hands, or what, but whoever is currently developing this app is greedy AF, even being willing to steal from their paying customers. Don’t bother with this joke of an app. It is nothing compared to what it once was. Don’t bother with this company, because they are greedy and dishonest. The fact they were able to do this and remain on the App Store is in itself an insult to every honest user/customer. What they’ve done is evil perpetrated by absolute filth.

Twinkle, twinkle, ... lost three stars ... tell me if they really are...
First of all: Thank you for creating this app. I prefer it to the other contenders (Merriam-Websters, Oxford, Collin's, etc)
Definitely already headed straight towards: A good and solid app.
A few - cumbersome and unwieldy tending towards "more than annoying" - quirks to usability keep me from giving 4-5 stars:
1) returning results as one endless page ... why not collapsed?
2) "American Phonetic" + "IPA" - nice! - Why can't you simply display both side-by-side instead of a (unnecessary and obstructive) toggle ?
3) Why can't multiple queries be held accessible for rapid switching between terms? Why is there no history or effective bookmarking?
...
A true highlight were adding crossreferencing to thesaurus and establishing rapid switching between these for language and word-smithing purposes.

Way too many ads
This has way too many ads. The screenshots are misleading as they don’t show the ads.
