User reviews

Simply simple

Just what I was looking for.....Simple to use.....no overload of info....especially in the AM when I do the Word Game in the papers...Thanks to the previous reviewer....appreciate the input.....

Finally

After searching and searching, I finally found a dictionary app that suits my needs. When I am composing and need the spelling of a word, or not sure of my usage, this app comes to the rescue.
I don't want or need all the extras that other apps provide.
I need the correct spelling and the definition, NOW, not all the pop-ups, banners, and free offers.
This app is very neat and efficient. Aha! Just now I knew not how to spell "efficient". I went to the app and had to try seven different variations until I hit the correct spelling. All I got were, "Not Found" repeatedly.
Would it be to costly to add suggestions in the search field? I suppose it would sense you didn't.
Otherwise, a very good app for me. Thank you.

Fast and easy to use

Great simple app that brings up definitions of words quickly. May benefit from a word of the day alert and some of the example sentences weren't the clearest for getting a good sense of the word, but the quotes were very interesting. Also a settings page would be helpful with FAQs.

Simple and effective

Does exactly what I expected and for that reason it gets my vote. Not over complicated, it's just simple and because it's so simple is a pleasure to use on a daily basis. Good job app developers!

I need this!

It's great to finally have an easy-to-use Dictionary app on my device. I'm fluent in English, but I can always use some help!
