Description

Download one of the most intuitive and easy to use mobile dictionaries with quick access to millions of words, laid out in a unique format by WordNet.

Entirely revised and updated to include the most comprehensive and accurate picture of the English language today, the Advanced English Dictionary and Thesaurus represents the authority of dictionary apps.
The intelligent search features, leading to a rich word list with special language notes, cross-curriculum words and the prompt navigation - all contribute to your unique user experience. Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms, interlinked by means of conceptual-semantic and lexical relations. In addition to the straightforward definitions the dictionary shows how each word is linked to other words in terms of synonyms, opposites and similar words, but also hyponyms and hyperlinks within the group.
The WordNet concept had become the staple of quality language apps:
* Straightforward and precise definitions of over 140,000 with more than 250,000 links and 1.4 million words
* Synonyms, antonyms, similar and related words to help improve your writing and speech
* Hypernyms (more generic words), hyponyms (subordinate words) and meronyms (part names)
* Examples illustrate how words are used and show typical constructions and collocations
* Offline audio support (internet connection is NOT required)
This app is tailored to professionals, students, and academics, as well as anyone who needs a comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of current English at work or at home.

OFD is very good for reference, I always see this dictionary first to see all the formats and applications of the word. I have been referring Advanced learners for decades, this one also suggests applications and subtle differences in meanings.
I would suggest, you reactivate the microphone feature that was available before. Pressing microphone button brings no response at all. That was a very useful feature for some difficult words.
Alternatively, you may wish to suggest, which one of the OED has this feature.

Beneficial

Excellent app to have is terrific and very concise and extremely helpful and right at your fingertips just at the touch of a screen always with you literally on hand anytime anywhere ready if and when needed plus they have this great thing where they send a new word to learn every single day unless I'm guessing you choose to take that bit off but me I think it's just as much fun as it is educational so I have not even looked to see if this part can be taken off.

Good

This app is very handy when you need info and are on the go so I recommend it if u are the always need to check everything type of person like I am. Although the only thing is you can’t always find the word your looking for, unfortunately, but that is the only downside to this wondrous (I found this word on this app!!) app. Search a word up! The sky’s the limit all you book worms!! Enjoy your selves as there is always hope in what seems hopeless!! 🤗bye now!
