User Reviews

Users praise the app for speed, breadth of vocabulary, offline use, and a clean, intuitive interface, plus the ability to save words for later review. The main drawbacks center on the lack of export or cross-device sync for bookmarks/history, along with occasional data gaps in a few entries. Overall, it offers fast, reliable dictionary access with offline capability and useful word-collection features, making it a strong value at its price.

I just purchased this app and it doesn’t have a Thesaurus. It is list as dictionary and thesaurus. Very frustrating because I’m going to have to purchase another app to get the thesaurus.

Simple and straightforward. Dear developer, can you make a dark themed option? That would be great and helpful.
