## What is Wordini?

Wordini is a new kind of search tool: it remembers the words you forget. Imagine you're at a party or writing a novel. There's a really apropos word on the tip of your tongue, but you can't quite remember it. Wordini has you covered there, whispering answers like a digital Cyrano de Bergerac in your inarticulate times of need. You can think of it like a reverse dictionary: give it a phrase or definition that describes the word and Wordini will work its magic. And speaking of magic, you can get answers from Wordini on your Apple Watch simply by speaking a phrase or question.

• Ask Wordini for words by describing them in plain English
• Get synonyms and antonyms for words (see the in-app Help section for more information)
• View definitions of answer words
• Save your favorite words to iCloud
• Use an answer as the basis for a new search, allowing you to quickly explore related words
• Supports 3D Touch to quickly take actions on answer words
• Discover new words every day with the Word of the Day feature
• Use the Apple Watch app to search for words, or choose a favorite word to display in a watch face complication
• Universal build for iPhone and iPad


Please note: Wordini requires an internet connection to return results. Saving favorites requires an active iCloud account with free space.

### 5/5 — Works well!

*2019-09-23, version 2.1.3*

I tried searching a phrase in every online reverse-dictionary-type thing I could find, but nothing even remotely close to what I wanted showed up. But here it actually worked, and I found the word I was looking for.

### 3/5 — Instant crash

*2017-04-15, version 2.0.1*

Could not try the app as it instantly crashes while trying to input on the text box. Three stars for now

### 3/5 — A great start

*2016-02-15, version 1.3.1*

This is a great concept, but the app doesn't work in a way I find useful.

When I search for a word, I want to see all my results listed, so I know immediately whether to try another term. The one-at-time presentation is inconvenient and counter-intuitive.

I want to be able to view the definition of a suggested word, without losing access to the alternatives (I.e. Give me a back button). I also want to see all the given alternatives/synonyms/descriptive suggestions for the word whose definition I'm viewing.

It's also be great to add some quality of life features like bookmarking and syncing words (and remembering how I described them).

This is a good start, but the less time I have to take away from writing, the more useful the app becomes.

### 5/5 — Invaluable!

*2014-02-25, version 1.0.1*

Being an amateur Cruciverbalist (a person who puts crossword puzzles together), I have found this app most helpful. My friends and I create crossword puzzles and then exchange them. Since using this app, I have had a "leg up", if you will, when both creating and solving.  Thank you Wordini!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-02-25, version 1.0.1*

Very useful.. Now I have something to help me out when I have a brain fart

### 5/5 — Great!

*2014-02-24, version 1.0.1*

Amazing app! So easy to use and find myself using it all the time!

### 5/5 — Great Idea!

*2014-02-22, version 1.0.1*

wow, i totally needed this the other day.  Don’t you hate when you can’t think of the right word during a conversation?  Just tried this and it would have come up with the word I was looking for.  Keeping this handy for the next brain lapse, thanks!

### 5/5 — App of the year!

*2013-10-18, version 1.0.0*

Simply brilliant.
