I am happy
how happy am I . as happy as a Zealot ….. what are the odds i would look up this word second word… so it is a fake word…. or a real dictionary… so if you want the real answer hear it in different sounding words that nobody knows and make perfect sense, even work in the dark.. 🫵🏽🌽💨. .🪨 📄 ✂️
perfect sexy and sweet soon as i saw that Booty !.! it was instant ah Dictionary…. 10 days straight Dictionaries chopped up line by line and shoved into those muscle powered lids sphincter balls for sight.. i was going to say orfice… because i freaking use the word orfice and it is important to… know the wordys on this post espeshally!

Best ...crisp clear
This app is a true gem
easy simple
and give what we need " only meaning"
Kudos to the developer !!
Great
Thank you for putting user experience and ease of use as top of mind - it shows!
Best
IMO, this is the best dictionary app. The only thing missing is not including a good thesaurus.
They could also include better legal definitions. From my understanding Bouvier and Black’s Law dictionaries no longer have copyrights.
The only free dictionary to consider
Well formatted, completely free of nuisances, accurate. Sure I have other dictionary apps (one which has a better thesaurus, another for etymology) but this is the go to for definitions. Delete that awful Ox app and get this.
Perfect
It’s simple, free, doesn’t have ads, and doesn’t track you. Also includes free offline and online options. If you want there’s a button to delete your search history.
Not distracting like all the other dictionary apps
Sometimes I don’t feel like being fed data by a corporation when I’m just trying to learn a new word
The best
This is the best dictionary app that I have ever seen in the past 10 years.
Revert Back to Last searched word
Been using this app for so long on all of my devices.
I installed it on my iPad 10.2 recently and noticed some weird behaviour.
1. It goes back to second last searched word as soon as I try to go out of app(still being inside) like opening notification menu or pulling dock icons overflow while being in the app itself.
2. While using the app in overflow mode (OVER another app, not fitting into screen along other app), it doesn’t let me search. As soon as i hit search icon, it goes back to last definition in next frame.
Thanks
Thank you!
This is one of the very few examples of free apps that just works and does exactly that it’s supposed to do. The developer should really think about adding an optional ‘support development’ in-app purchase, I would definitely send you some money!
