Great app

Works really well for me, and better than a couple of others I tried first.

Appy times

Appsolutely brilliant

Never a cross word until now

I find this app much more user friendly than others I have tried that do the same job.
This is a 2015 update - recently it keeps closing down or worse going to ads and safari before I've even finished typing in the word or sctolled through the options. I would be happy to pay for an ad free version because it is so good otherwise. Unfortunately I can't as yet find one. I am tempted to reduce the star rating but it is very good otherwise.
