## Review summary

Users find Lexeme useful for word-finding and value its long presence, but reliability is hurt by frequent purchase/restoration problems, forced repurchases for previously bought features, and long-term maintenance issues (outdated compatibility, crashes, and dictionary/word validity concerns).

### Pros

- Useful for finding all possible words when stuck in word games
- Long-standing tool used by Words with Friends players since 2010
- Positive impressions when the app is functioning (e.g., occasional strong praise)

### Cons

- Repeated purchase restoration problems: 'ALREADY BOUGHT' not working and purchase restoration across devices often failing
- Need to repurchase for features already paid and gating content (e.g., larger words)
- Lack of updates and compatibility issues with newer iOS versions; reports of crashes and instability
- Dictionary/word validity issues where some added words are not accepted or lack definitions
