As a non-native english speaker and a life-long learner, MW is an absolutely fantastic resource for the etymology/understanding of words. The word games are a very playful and addictive way to continuously boost my vocabulary. In the Top 10 of my favorite websites!
Indispesable
A must go-to every day
Widget
Your new update gave the Word of the Day widget an ugly border, please change back !
Soooooooo reliable
for me, being Dutch, Merriam-Webster has been THE site to use. Simply the best.
Very good.
Extremely informative and very elaborate app.
Great UX, easy, fun
Great app with good user experience. I use it on a daily basis and am able to train the words that I looked up in the past. Love it.
Oi m8
I just started using the app, ask me again in a couple months.
No ads subscription is a lie
App works great. But I’m quite angry that I bought “No ads” subscription, yet app not only somewhat subtly advertise “supercharging dictionary”, but it advertise with popup. What did I pay for? I thought no ads means no ads. I know that this app has those kind of features. I choose not to pay for them. Stop showing these ads for me or I want my money back
Super
addictive! The wordgames are super. To finish Develish is my ultimate goal.
Crapp
Removed it because they’re lying leftist hacks.
They change definitions to the most stupid leftist nonsense to be politically correct.
Complete useless leftist fascist crap.
