Review summary

Users praise WordReference as a powerful dictionary with rich meanings, clear examples, slang contexts, and pronunciation help, making it a go-to tool for English and other languages. It's widely used in schools and by individual learners, and developers are seen as responsive. However, several reviews report stability problems: searches fail or apps become unresponsive, and some experience slow loading or access-denied outages. Ads are mentioned by a few, but when the app works reliably, the sentiment is strongly positive.
Pros
  • Rich meanings with clear examples and even slang contexts; strong support for language learning.
  • Pronunciations and pronunciation practice help learners.
  • Go-to dictionary used in schools and ESL teaching; great for self-study.
  • Developers are responsive and helpful.
Cons
  • Stability and reliability issues: searches sometimes fail or the app becomes unresponsive.
  • Access denied/outages and slow loading affect usability.
  • Some users report overall performance slowdowns when loading content.

Don't make the mistake I made of underestimating this app. I thought the website was enough, but this app is far better than the website. It has a right click or long press menu that pops up a small window over your current window. While in the small window, you can select another* word and do the long press menu again to search for that word. You can then go back to where you were. So you can do multiple searches without losing track of what you're studying.

I love it! it's really good because it also has examples, so we can know the appropriate translation. I normally use it for English and French. My native language is Spanish ✨🌈💖
