User Reviews

Word Hippo is praised for its comprehensive thesaurus and dictionary features that assist users in expanding vocabulary and overcoming writer's block, with added benefits of translations and offline access. Users appreciate its affordability and ease of use. However, common issues include inaccuracies in the rhyming function, intrusive ads, lack of organizational tools like favorites or history, and no integration to use within other writing apps. Some users desire better feedback channels and improvements in word accuracy to enhance the overall experience.

Recent reviews

After a few years, I recently discovered this app through Tiktok and downloaded it immediately. I love how it is easy to use for those who people that wants a simple app for synonyms and others.

Wonderful, useful app! Of course, given that it provides synonyms, I could list another 5000 great descriptive words for this app! I love that it also lists antonyms, definitions, sentence examples & much more, but I do think it's lacking in the rhyming section (but not enough to lose a star over), because the word "happy" (eg) is listed as rhyming with just about any word ending in "y", such as "drearily" & "duality" .. but it does also list lots of more suitable rhymes! And only $2.49 to buy!
