Great uniqe word lookup

Saved me when I needed help coming up with ideas by word for my writing
Bbayoikal

Very disappointed.

Stick with Wolfram Alpha - this app excels at nothing other than chipping away at your net worth and increasing your icon count by one.

Not good

Doesn't work properly. Fails to compute a lot.
BBBertie the Bee

Overpriced and not useful.

The free, general app has the same information, or you could get a free dictionary app that will let you link from the results, instead of requiring a new search every time.

Not good

Absolutely love Wolfram Alpha apps normally. So I expected this to be good. At the very least I expected it to work.
It tries to work (when it's connected to the internet) but, for example, trying to find synonyms for the word "safe" brings information on a movie. Utterly useless and is no substitute for any number of websites that do this free. Poor show guys.
