The app itself is really well made. It’s features include like a sentence maker, thesaurus etc. I found the app really helpful when I didn’t know what a word meant. Therefore I could easily understand the word that I didn’t know before. I could also use their science dictionary to search up scientific words that I had literally no idea about. Although some functions need to paid, I feel like it is totally worth it as this app is super useful to me.
This app is the best

I used this app so many times, and it always shows you the definition and the type of word it is(e.g. verb, adjective...). It also came with a free thesaurus, which I found brilliant, with synonyms and antonyms. You will not regret downloading this app!
Liked it until it suddenly changed

This app is good and it helps me learn new words. However, I got a bit confused when, one day, the whole app just looked totally different. The background colour, the way everything’s set was just so different. I never updated it at all but it showed me that I could now access the rhymes, thesaurus, dictionary and examples. I was really worried. I didn’t know what happened and sort of panicked. I’m still really confused.
Ads are way too aggressive!!

Used to be my favourite app until ads start to pop up every other word you look up. This is too much of a nuisance for people in need for a quick search! Could have just used banner ads instead. Besides, many apps tend to not display any ads if you have previously purchased something on it. I've bought the medical dictionaries, origins, etc. so I really don't see the point of showing ads again since I am already a "spending customer". This just feels like a rob.
