My favorite dictionary from MW

I really like this dictionary as it has good definitions and example sentences. It doesn’t use infrequently used words like the higher gradient Merriam-Webster Dictionaries usually do but has more definitions than the elementary version. Good intermediate dictionary app!

One thing I hope for is an updated version for the UI so it fills the screen on my phone and iPad!

Great dictionary

Everything has been great so far, except favorites are not synced to web saved words, I hope developers can make this feature then I can read saved words on both web and mobile app.

Great dictionary with clear definitions

What I like the best about this dictionary is that the definitions are so clear and easy to understand.

I also really like that it is not cluttered with a bunch of grammatical info, synonyms, etc.
