Travellers’ friend

What a comprehensive dictionary/thesaurus. I haven’t had it long but needed one for travelling and had to leave my old Collins dictionary/thesaurus behind. I trawled through several different online dictionaries and this one stood out as having everything I need and more. It is worth its weight in gold to be at my finger tips on my iPad while I write. That may be the last my Collins sees of me!!
Brilliant

I have had the free version for some time, but didn’t find it really helpful. I read the previous reviews and had a look at the content that was being offered in the pro version, so decided to make the purchase.Why didn’t I do it sooner. It just brilliant. The content and extra features make this a must have!!!!!
Excellent App

I've had this app on my phone for a long time and use it a lot. It is reliable with some good features such as word & quote of the day plus holidays and word games that you can play. I am visually impaired so I like the fact that you can make the font large. Overall, a very good, easy-to-use app which I would highly recommend.
