Chambers Dictionary

It would have been far more better if it was accompanied with sound, I’m not good in my pronunciation in certain words, would have been a lot good to me with sound

Excellent app indispensable for cruxiverbalists.

Clear, comprehensive and sometimes witty, the Chambers has been my companion for forty years. Now it costs a fraction of the printed version, is rapidly searchable, and updates every time there is a new edition. Full marks!

This is an excellent general dictionary with a clean, easy to use design. It also has wildcard search and anagram solver functionality, making it great for solving those tricky crossword clues. It's my go-to dictionary for every day use.

Travelling with the Chambers dictionary (the de facto standard for solving cryptic crosswords) is obviously out of the question. This gives me the full dictionary in my pocket with the added bonus that I can search for words using wildcards. Also, it's great having a "direct line" to the developer allowing bug reporting and tremendous responses.

I’ve used this app for years, along with the thesaurus and love it. Simple and easy to use. As well as working fully offline. I use it most days. Thanks!

It’s nice when something works well, even down to small details - I like how when re-activating the app by unlocking the phone, it goes back (from a previous look-up) to an empty search box so you can immediately type in a word. This only seems to happen on the iPhone app though, not on the iPad app…

I’ve had this for years and rely on it. Thanks🙏🏻

Used this for years and still useful to this day. My go to whenever I’m doing crosswords

As a lover of the Chambers physical dictionary, which I particularly rely on for crosswords, I held off from buying this for a long time, confused by the strange mixture of reviews, and the price. But I am so glad I bought this. Seems to have everything the physical Chambers has, and in many ways is easier to use; the multiple meanings are laid out more clearly than in the book! And the price is cheaper than the physical book was, so I’m delighted that I finally took the chance! The only thing I have so far found missing compared with the book are some of the odd sections at the end, like “Some first names”.
