  • Cannot access Thesaurus
  • Tapping 'Home' does nothing
  • No information on how to use the app
  • Dictionary definitions are brief
  • Settings only offer color choice

  • Terrible at guessing misspelled words
  • Annoying pop-up demanding 5-star review
  • Search feature is terrible
  • App is not a thesaurus
  • Dictionary pretending to be a thesaurus
  • Not a thesaurus, just a dictionary
  • Clunky, incomplete, all but worthless as a dictionary and completely worthless as a thesaurus
  • Not a comprehensive, or well-thought out reference book
  • Surprisingly few words
  • This is the second app I’ve purchased, Webster/Roget is identical to the Oxford. Both are useless if you’ve graduated elementary school. Although both are advertised as a Thesaurus, neither are.
  • Not a large selection of words in the thesaurus
  • Same word of the day every day and can’t turn it off
  • Frequently doesn’t have words that other dictionaries have
  • Every time I touch the magnifying glass to search I have to first delete the last item I searched for.
  • App is supposed to be Thesaurus and Dictionary, but only Dictionary came with download
  • Word of the day is a nuisance
  • Dictionary did not include words like anthropomorphi
  • Charged incorrect dollar amount
  • I cannot believe I paid money for this worthless piece of a thesaurus.
  • It doesn't even have a dictionary function with it, as the logo implies.
  • At first looking up synonyms can be a hit and miss affair with very few (sometimes no) results.
  • The app needs to be updated with iOS7 aesthetics
  • Claims to be a thesaurus but often gives a dictionary. There’s no obvious way to switch to thesaurus.
  • No entry for the word cadet?
  • Cumbersome search and sends the same ‘word of the day’ notification of the same word - “poet” - a word I was already familiar with, incidentally.
  • This was bad enough before the latest update. It does not recognise many English words as it seems to be American. It has nothing whatsoever in common with Roget, and I can now no longer use it as even a basic thesaurus since updating.
  • I wanted a thesaurus but got a two-bit dictionary.
  • Clumsy interface, limited offerings.
  • Couldn't find the word skewer
  • Lacked comprehensive definitions
