Underrated- the most useful dictionary

manmedia on

I usually read books when I’m nearing bedtime or myself commuting from/to work. Having an offline dictionary to quickly look up unhelpful English words can speed things up. But all other dictionary were connected to online services, so I always wanted something offline. This dictionary was the answer. It has got bookmarking, relevance matching etc. I just don’t know why this is not rated and ranked higher in App Store.

Best English to English dictionary

Mazurenko on

I have been using this app for 15 years

Text Size

Chonka Goo Har on

This would be vastly improved if there was a settings option that is easily accessible to alter the size of the text. This is developer 101 at uni and I’m surprised that it’s not breaking disability laws in some countries. Must do better

Brilliant

VJ1951 on

I’ve used WordWeb for years on my desktop and now on iPad. I wouldn’t be without it. It came in handy especially while doing BA and MA degrees.

Considerate and Magnanimous

manmedia on

This dictionary despite being unpaid, has got full coverage of words and advert-free user experience. I have been looking for this and thanks for making this a reality.

Great for all ages

DragonAtNight on

This app is amazing for word definitions, the definitions are easy to understand and remember. It comes with synonyms for each word, and even vague synonyms if you want a rough definition. This app is great but I think it should also have antonyms for the words too. Thanks for this app

Edhingo on

Good app easy to use

Best

Kevether on

This is the best free dictionary out there I’ve used it for years. All you have to do is try it and if you don’t like it you can always remove it but I don’t think you will be disappointed.
