I’ve been using this app for 14(!) years now, and have never been disappointed. I’m not a native speaker of English, and Merriam-Webster makes it easy for me to understand the actual concept behind each term. It’s way better than just translating words into my native tongue.
Very good
Helpful
Functional but unprofessional ads
Overall, it’s an app version of the website, but I am deeply disappointed by the ads I’ve seen on this app—fake giveaways and scummy marketing tactics for fruitless casino apps, among others. Instead, I’d carry a physical dictionary rather than deal with the trash that pops up all around the search results.
Great Application
I thank the team behind this product for the great job 👍
What a great dictionary!
I was looking for an eng-eng dictionary when started to read a book in English and improve my vocabulary, that will work offline and this is what I needed. It is free, has 99% of words and even pronunciation (needs internet). Try it yourself and you will see how good it is.

Good Dictionary
It has large range of words and also simple explanation
Compliments for concise etymology
One of the outstanding advantages of Merriam-Webster compared not only to other English dictionaries but also dictionaries of other languages:
A minimum and yet sufficient amount of etymology for each entry!
Valuable App
I like this app very much and I even paid for the subscription , but it does not open since two days. Please fix it !
Wonderful Application
Merriam-Webster is a lovely app. It’s definitions are concise yet comprehensive. It also has a intuitive user interface.
