I evol ti! ### 5/5 — Ding Dong Dandy *2013-09-11, version 1.0.4* Straightforward. Uncluttered. Works. Like. Expected. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2013-05-17, version 1.0.4* A pretty good app. Not the fanciest but it does work well ### 3/5 — Good Helper *2013-04-21* Wish it was linked to a dictionary too ### 5/5 — Excellent cheat for so many apps & games *2013-03-09* This amazing FREE app is great for letterpress, scrabble, anagrams, crosswords and hundreds of other word games and apps; Lexicon is also a fantastic help for all the 4 pic 1 word type apps if you don't want the answer, but need a little help. It has an enormous dictionary, including proper nouns like countries and best of all it is not only TOTALLY FREE but there is no limit to the number of times you can use it, the number of suggestions it will generate or the length of the words you can check. You can enter an unlimited number of letters and filter and search by letters that must be in the word and number of letters in word and effortlessly update and alter the filter choices again and again. I also love that you can super-impose any photo onto you Lexicon screen so it is easy to transfer the letters from whatever app you are playing. The only improvements I can think of are that it would brilliant to be able to store sets of letters and search results in the app and as files (notebook perhaps?) and if it was easier to flip between Lexicon and other apps more easily, but that might be an O/S system issue? This is the best multi-purpose use free app I have ever had the pleasure to come across and one I think no iPhone is complete without. I can emphatically recommend that if you haven't already, you download this app today - without delay. Thanks for creating and giving freely such a fantastic app! From an incredibly satisfied secondary school English teacher. ### 3/5 — Used to be good but crashes a lot now. *2013-02-03* A helpful app for word games but since the last update it takes too long to filter and crashes a lot. Would be very helpful if you could fix these problems. ### 4/5 — Best way to learn some crazy words! *2013-01-15* Very useful and works well. I don't even mind typing in the letters. The History function is nice addition, too. Now what would be REALLY cool would be to link the words to a real dictionary so I could learn what some of the oddball words mean. Xanthopsias, paroxatines, asthenosphere? Are these real words? Yes, they are. Go look them up. ### 5/5 — Lexicon *2013-01-13, version 1.0.4* I find this app very useful, finds words so fast, better than the battery operated machines. I actually would like it combined with a dictionary so I could check meanings. Sometimes it doesn't know easy words, but I guess every word solver has a different base. Would recommend it. ### 5/5 — Works good *2012-12-25* Does a good job of finding all words even when it's free. ## Frequently asked questions about Lexicon ### What is Lexicon used for?
