Great

Easy, complete, stimulating. Couldnt ask for more.

Must Have App!

This app will make you love words even more! Love it!

Best Thesaurus on the Market!

Okay, Im an undergraduate at Brown University and this app has been a life saver for me. This may sound a little sycophantic but it is literally the best thesaurus I have ever used. Completely worth buying this app. Trust me. My papers have become so much better as a result of this thesaurus.

Needs one more thing

Why is it when u press the back arrow, u go to the previous searches word instead of the previous screen? Why would I want to go back to the previous word? Ive already searched for a new word and am working with it, trying to find the right synonym. I need to go back to the list of words pertaining to the current word search, not back to the previous word search!

1 Star for being needy

Please stop prompting me to rate you 5 stars. Ive paid for your app. Im not your pimp.

Fantastic

There isnt a day that goes by that I dont use this app. As a teacher and a student, its hard to find a note comprehensive, user-friendly electronic thesaurus. I teach 6th grade and this app is as useful to my students as it is for me in graduate school. It provides pronunciation and some etymology help, as well. Fantastic!

A WINNER TWO THUMBS UP!!!~TTS

This app is more than an app, its a professor in my phone!! It has so many working tools one can turn to in so many ways and learn even more from it!! Dont change it unless improvement is possible! Is it?!?! :D

Marginally useful for rhymes

The thesaurus part is okay. The "in app purchase" of the rhymes component is a waste, for numerous reasons. Examples-- The word "know" rhymes with "how" and "now" according to these guys. Really? Is that because "ow" are the last two letters? And forget it if you want to find a two syllable word that is a rhyme for any one syllable word. No one home for that... So, If youre an author, or write research reports, etc., probably a helpful app. If youre a songwriter, not so much.

The best

I love this app. It is really, really helpful.

Works great

Works perfect. Quick with many choices.

OK, easy to use, could use more content

See above

Fantastic resource

I dont use this resource as much as I should. The UX is intuitive; the material is copious. Its definitely worth the money.

Really nice!

Wonderful! ... and so handy.

Tremendously quick and convenient

If I have time, I use my unabridged 1300-page Rogets, but this app runs a close second, while being convenient and remarkably quick. And of course, Ive always got it with me.

Great Concept and interface

I will be using this in my classroom next year!

Useful

I dont often use a thesaurus, but this one seems excellent to me. It returns an abundance of synonyms or near synonyms whenever I type in a search. Being an iPad app, its very handy.

fave app

thats it. the Stars explain how I feel about this app. thank you for improving my vocabulary!

Uh-mazing!!!

No for real. Well done you guys.

I think its a good app

I used this app often and I really like it because it improved my vocabulary but I wish the keyboard letters lagging time gets fixed.

Thesaurus

This is great to find words that add greater variation to what is written.
