Nice little tool to find words, rhymes, more.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-07-08*

The app works exactly as it it says it should.  No ads, no "pay us" ir close the app threats.  Just an honest helpful app to assist a person with finding words for puzzles.
Great work.

**Developer response:** Thank you! 😊

### 5/5 — Useful! Pinch zoom would be good

The text is a bit small

### 5/5 — My go to word look up

Perfect app for wordies. I have used it for years to help me find almost everything related to words except definition. And there are many applications that make this application useful.

Works great. Easy interface and accurate word list
