Complete Dictionary Solution

I have never written a review for an app before. This is the cleanest and most truly useful app I’ve ever downloaded. Period. It has fantastic UI and includes functions I didn’t even know I needed (front page pronunciation guide; antonym search; word learning; etc). Please give this app a try and spread the word.

Simple and Effective

I saw that this app doesn’t have a lot of reviews, so I decided to write one. Lngo is clean and straightforward to use without a bunch of distracting adds. I like how quickly I can switch to synonyms and can even save words to review again later! Will be keeping this in my repertoire for when I’m writing.

Exceeds expectations!

I don’t usually leave reviews, but Lngo truly exceeded my expectations. It boasts a rich synonym search and detailed etymology explanations, which many dictionaries these days lack. The built-in SAT/GRE flash cards is a game-changer. It is an incredible app that delivers on its promise.
