Chambers Thesaurus for Negative User Reviews

✓ Latest iPad OS update broke appThis app now refuses to open and immediately crashes with the latest iPad OS update. I’ve tried to get help via the developer website but there is no troubleshooting or help section at all. App now useless. Such a pity because it used to be great..DiveGodVersion: 3.80

✓ Paltry vocabularyThis app feels like they just repurposed Apple's stock thesaurus and strapped a price tag on it. Very disappointed with the meager vocabulary this thesaurus offers. A waste of time and money..Porkins8888Version: 3.2

✓ Not convincingIt’s been about 4 years I’ve been using this app however the thesaurus is not that much persuasive. I expected something more..Majoo1368Version: 3.70

✓ ?Why is this now in American English? Also, no option to change it....MattavelliVersion: 3.2

✓ PoorThis so-called thesaurus gives very few options when you look up a word. It is very similar to the very poor Chambers Dictionary, which seems to lack many very common words and expressions. If I look up a word such as 'bird' in a thesaurus I expect to find a large list of different birds, which I don't in this one..BrisbuckVersion: 1.7

✓ IncompleteI generally like the app’s functionality with some niggles. However the biggest issue is the absence of some relatively common words eg acuity. Also the linking seems faulty eg if a search for ‘recant’ gives a list including ‘disavow’ then shouldn’t it also be vice versa? Real shame..NaihtolVersion: 5.6

✓ RubbishFirst word I searched ideology had just a few definitions, no opposite. Program just a copy of the chambers dictionary I all ready own. Another waste of money. I want try before you buy, I am fed up with app store rubbish.W1246gfVersion: 0

✓ Not impressedIt says it's a thesaurus but it's not doing what it's supposed to do like a thesaurus does, that is to give synonyms. It's giving the different parts of speech for the word you type in. highly unimpressed, it's a waste of my money..72jilVersion: 1.5

✓ BrokenAfter the latest update it now crashes when opening. It was a great app, but the update has rendered it useless..CanewielderVersion: 3.80

✓ Is it just me ?This seems to be the same as the Chambers Dictionary, and has no thesaurus function at all. Unless I've missed something, it is a complete waste of time and money..TregeareVersion: 1.7

✓ Good.Does what it says. Only reservation is that some fairly common words are not in there - but generally good. Control buttons are a bit fiddly..Barrie HVersion: 0

✓ It would be better if tge words that had links were somehow visibly different frim ones that dont... Clicking 20 or 30 times on a word in the hope of visiting it's page with 100% innacuracy can be grating if you're not sure why....DaftbombVersion: 0

✓ Not so goodWith the possibility of containing as many words and their synonyms and antonyms as Roget's with very low memory requirement this app falls very very short indeed. I've been attempting to use this for a couple of years and concluded that it's next to useless for a serious user of English. It appears to be presented for learners rather than users. I would love a thesaurus app which I could take with me on my iPad but I find myself reaching for Roget's more often than not as this app fails to come up to any form of expectation..Milesg5Version: 2.1
