Dictionary. for Positive User Reviews
✓ HappyWorks very well and it's easy to use..Version: 2.10
✓ GoodPronunciation is good.Version: 6.3
✓ A huge thanks!I do feel sorry for not having the ability to give as much appreciation and attention to this app as I would like. I look forward to using Dictionary everyday and find myself rather down when I don’t have internet access. Yes, it advertises offline availability, though unfortunately, I’ve never been able to utilize it for some reason it just won’t load for me. Aside from that, When I am able to use Dictionary, I’m on it sometimes for hours at a time, or I have it open in my recently used apps line up to be referenced, toggling back and forth when I need it. So again, many thanks to it’s developers..Version: 7.0

✓ An amazing dictionaryThis is an Outstanding app. With the meanings translation, and sentences this app has reached the level of an original dictionary but with all the additional features this app has blown me away and made me do things I never knew I could do.

✓ Forced ads with sound while in seminarThe forced ads popped up. It had sound even the phone in silent mode. Could not skip the apps. Had to wait for 5s. WITH SOUNDS ON IN A SEMINAR. Horrible and embarrassing experience. Thefreedictionary is always my favorite website to looks up words. I was so happy when I could use this app. Until this terrible accident happened. I only want to look up vocabulary. You can show ads but without sound please! Don't you think people only use this app in their free time, not work time? SO DISAPPOINTED! Updated: Thanks for the quick response. I will keep an eye on this later and send you more information if I happen to come across same problem again. New update: The audio ads has been found and removed! Great job and prompt action!.Version: 6.3
✓ Encyclopaedia of the dayHaving a dictionary at the tip of your finger that also provides pronunciation is a blessing..Version: 8.6
✓ JoannaEasy to use and very fast responding. Highly recommend.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Knowledge in your pocket !!!So handy. Great for extending your vocabulary as well as your history! Knowledge in your pocket! Something I look forward to discovering every day. :).Version: 2.10
✓ It's the best dictionary so far among all that I have tried.When you look for installing dictionary on your phone 1. you look for free, 2. For those English is not there native language they would be looking for a word explained in a "sentence"using it as an "for example", along with meaning defined. Now on top of all this basics, you get to see 3. Synonyms, 4. You can make your own books of the words which learnt, by adding them into a book. There are many reasons for not going to look for any other dictionary my friends! - Riken Patel.Version: 6.3
✓ Top NotchThis is a really helpful/useful app. Very often you'll need not only the meaning of a word, but the correct spelling also, and there it is, even though you mis-spell the word initially!.Version: 6.3
✓ Exceptional Tool for English and language discoveryVery powerful and useful dictionary it’s a great source for learning about cultures the world and history things you would not on your own know how to go discover. Free Dictionary brings the information to you through daily new words and topics all related to language. What I love the most is it’s multi purposes and for things that interest you the app makes it super easy to click for more info yet still staying within the app. I love it totally I give it 100 % it gets my full backing support. Great Job Keep up the good work..Version: 11
✓ Big HelpI love using this app while listening to audiobooks, watching movies and tv, and reading books. I rarely cannot find the meanings to unfamiliar words and/or phrases. I do not love the loud ads that come on when I open the app sometimes. I cannot control the volume that disturbs others near me (since I have to have the volume on for other reasons). Can anything be done? This did not used to happen. Keep helping us 😊.Version: 6.3
✓ Interesting wordsIt tells you the meaning of words..Version: 12.0.1
✓ 2 years' use and I still love itSo many interesting features on the front page, would be good for a primary school child. Layout of definition from many sources is a bit busy and repetitive but you get most info including etymology, eventually. A great mobile app to help with your writing and reading..Version: 6.3
✓ My FavouriteI absolutely love this App, it's my favourite and I hardly ever miss a day of referring to it cos it has so much info, quotes, history, words, games etc. I wouldn't want to be without it, Thanks..Version: 6.3
✓ In a word: OUTSTANDINGThis is by far the best dictionary / thesaurus I have ever used and it is incomprehensible how much work has gone into compiling this app by its developers. Well done to all those concerned. Now that I suffer with Alzheimer’s I use this app probably 4 - 6 times per day so for me it is an invaluable tool. In my humble opinion this app is simply the best and although I rarely write on the www today is an exception where I have to give thanks and credit to where credit is due..Version: 8.1.1
✓ HoroscopeI just love the horoscopes of this app. It’s like I have my own writer of my life. Anything which is happening or going to to happen, all that this app tells, is true..Version: 9.0
✓ The go-to dictionary and thesaurus of choiceSuccinct definitions at a glance. I even use the browser version when I'm on my laptop, instead of the usual definition websites..Version: 6.3
✓ I like it, but...I am giving it a five star rating because the free version does it’s job. Later on in the review I will list some features I rhino would help, but I won’t knock the score because it could be in the premium version and I’m just not aware. This is my preferred dictionary app because it is sleek, simple design, it include audio from UK as well as American pronunciation, and I think it’s a crime to not include both and I’m surprised more dictionary websites do not. The entries for each word is brilliantly expansive, including as many definitions as possible, and also a well thought-out, and well designed thesaurus. The app does it’s job as a mobile dictionary, that’s all I could ever ask. I don’t always play the vocabulary mobile games inside the app, but they are legitimately fun brain teasers. Possible features to include: I don’t not like that there is no way to build a list of favourites. So if you come across a word that you really liked you’ll have to jot it down somewhere else on your phone or physically. If this feature exists, then I cannot find it. If it is in the premium version that it is not advertised..Version: 11
✓ Great appReally good app. In fact the best I have used. It is quick, efficient and thorough. It also offers a thesaurus and sentences showing use of said word. Excellent. Couldn't ask for better..Version: 8.1.2
✓ The dictionaryI have only just got this app but it seems very useful so far. The extras are a great addition.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Brilliant!This dictionary is, on so many levels, the only one you'll ever need. It's informative, enlightening and has educational games. As I said before, it's a brilliant App..Version: 7.0
✓ Review(?) after using for five minutesHigh hopes, feeling good about this app, is this free.Version: 10.2
✓ Highly informative.It’s far more than a dictionary. One of my favourite apps..Version: 10
✓ Love itExcellent app! Lots to do! Increases ones knowledge every day! Lots of interesting information.Version: 9.0
✓ Better than expensive oneI have other dictionaries like Collins COBUILD advance, Oxford English Dictionary, and I usually cannot find the words I was looking for, but with this one, I can easily found the words I need. Thanks!.Version: 8.1.2
✓ Good for keeping sharp mindedThe best dictionary / games I would throughily recommend this app to anyone who wants a simple daily reminder of events and famous people quotes to use in a conversation..Version: 8.6
✓ Makes you smart.Read 10 different word subjects, learn 10x fold more information then how you learn watching Television..Version: 13.1
✓ Good dictionaryThis is a really helpful app so please get this app and try it . It can help your child with encyclopaedia and sophisticated words. Definitely try this app called Oxford free dictionary for your own life you will actually learn a lot. Get this app right now and try it you will probably exaggerate once you tried this app.Version: 11.1
✓ Everything is hereSo happy to find an app that actually contains the proper definition of the word facism, and not a political reinvention to push an agenda - I'm interested in honest truth, not preserving feelings..Version: 6.3
✓ Amazing app but few things could improveI absolutely love the app! The only thing I would be super grateful if you could improve is how to add words to word list because as of right now you have to click actions then add.. maybe having an add button and making it look slightly nicer would help :) just a mere suggestion.Version: 8.6
✓ Only one downsideGood, definitions load quickly. I truly enjoy the app. Downside is if you don’t upgrade to “Ad Free”, the ads will pop up at the most inconvenient times, sometimes taking a few seconds or longer, (there are times that I had to close the app and then go back in to clear the ad before continuing with my word search. But otherwise I love the Free Dictionary been using it for years. Gives me not only the dictionary but also the thesaurus, Idioms, word games and other learning information..Version: 11.1
✓ Most words I research are contained within this site...However, occasionally I will have to resort to another dictionary to find the word I need. What I like about this site: Definitions from several sources are given: a helpful feature. Often word origins are included. Common foreign words/phrases are included. There are usage notes, usually when I need them! There is a thesaurus. Some proper nouns are included. There is an offline alternative and it is free. There are two text methods of pronunciation. There is an audio pronunciation feature and it is free. Having said that, the first two audio voices - American and British - accessed by the flag icons - frequently and laughably butcher pronunciations. Witness “ampoules,” which the Brit voice pronounces with an extra “l” as “amplool.” There are many more, and more extreme examples, but I’ve forgotten all of them (fortunately or, with my suggestible nature, I might be walking around sounding like an illiterate fool)! The male American voice, accessed by the speaker icon, is the most accurate. Obviously some thought and expertise were involved in his software. But I use the American and Brit pronunciations only if I want a good laugh, or, if I want to see how thoroughly a word might be mispronounced. Maybe you’d like to think about offing the Brit and the flag Yank! Nevertheless, Thank You for publishing this dictionary because, despite its flaws, it is my go-to dictionary, and I use it frequently. Tam.Version: 8.6
✓ DictionaryI love this app as it is not a dictionary but A mobile encyclopaedia. Has everything I've searched for thus far and been using it for a while now. It is the best by far nothing else comes close....Version: 8.3

✓ BrilliantOn-line version is extremely comprehensive with loads of links to related information. Excellent for students. Comprehensive definitions and explanations. Audio pronunciation is good too. Off-line version is a very good standard dictionary.Version: 2.10
✓ Amazing tool for Spanish learnersI paid a few dollars to remove the ads and use the Spanish version everyday on y my iPad and iPhone. It is much more complete than the built-in dictionaries since it pulls its definitions from multiple sources, giving the definitions as they are used in different countries. One element that I appreciate is that it’s possible to select a word or a sentence in the dictionary app and copy it to a note in another application. That can’t be done in the built-in dictionaries provided by Apple..Version: 13
✓ Not able to downloadI cannot download this app. What I should do to get it?.Version: 10
✓ More than a dictionaryI love this app. There are many more features than merely a dictionary. Lots of cool little games like hangman, word hub and my favourite synonym and antonym games ,where you can rate yourself world wide..Version: 6.3

✓ A wonderful ResourceI love this app, I use it consistently over my other dictionary/Thesaurus Apps and will actually use it over the Oxford dictionary PC program I have. It is easy to find the information that I need. I came across the free dictionary when I searched google for a legal term. Highly recommend I have never had a problem with this app or their website, and it has improved my learning drastically. I was so overjoyed with this app I bought the Pro Version within 24 hours and never looked back.Version: 7.0
✓ Don’t update from versions predating the beginning of 2021There are now these obtrusive ads (two thirds the way down on each page,) that cover the whole screen when scrolling down and again when scrolling back up - started happening after I updated the app from a 2020 version to the latest version (March 2021).Version: 11.1

A definite must-have for anyone who uses words in their profession and/or formal studies; anyone wanting to affect change, garner support, unify understanding, and/or motivate and encourage action NEEDS this application!.Version: 6.3
✓ Very helpful!One of the best dictionaries!!!.Version: 13
✓ Like it it’s work for meI like this for the language learning and developing my vocabulary.Version: 8.6
✓ GoodGood dictionary but not always give me Russian translation. Have to guess from descriptions of possible meanings. But in whole way I love it. Thank you :).Version: 3.3
✓ Best dictionary appI've been using this app for years now I haven't found a better one yet. The use of examples along with the detailed thesaurus enable you to grasp the precise meaning of a word and it's accurate use in context. Not to mention the option to translate the word in several languages. Wikipedia resources are also available. I also like the motivational system they created to encourage you to learn more and feel proud of your progress. Soon I am going to upgrade to see what else can I get out of this app..Version: 7.0
✓ The best everVery good and helpful. It is with you all the time so that you can check anything anytime anywhere. Thank you so much.Version: 10.3
✓ DictionaryI love this dictionary ! I use it to look up all sorts of words that I don’t understand. We Never stop learning. 😊.Version: 10
✓ A Terrific ResourceEverything in the App Store nowadays appears to have the words “In App Purchase” lurking at the top of the page. It is therefore bloody wonderful to access as much knowledge as there is in this App for FREE!.Version: 11
✓ Ask for feedback but don't try to improve appI used to love this app but I'm so tired of being asked for feedback, with no improvement to the app. I have repeatedly requested the ability to bookmark words into customized lists or categories instead of the one list especially if you have hundreds of words bookmarked. This is perfect for people who want to separate medical terms from their favorite words, etc. This would make the app so much better but they obviously don't care enough to develop the app in realistic ways to satisfy the people who use it. I also highly doubt that I'm the only person who has asked for this feature..Version: 6.3
✓ Precision of LanguagePrecision of Language comes from finding the right word to convey your message. Farlex makes it easier..Version: 11
✓ Excellent AppBest dictionary app - offline mode works perfectly, even when searching for words offline there are so many more than I would expect to be able to get offline! Only one piece of feedback is that I like the ‘word of the day notification’ but I’d like to be able to click on the notification and it to take me to the word rather than having to search for it..Version: 11
✓ Great dictionaryLove it and use it all the time, can find words not in my french dictionary and find the root.Version: 9.0
✓ A Treasure of WordsThe only dictionary I’ve found in 81 years where I can find every word needed. What is missing from the Oxford or the Webster can always be found here. Thank you for your remarkable services to humanity..Version: 13.2
✓ Purchased after reading reviews...I downloaded the free version first, however I quickly saw that the quality of the info and the amount give was well worth the upgrade to get rid of the ads. I also realized that I have been using one other mobile dictionary for so many years that it would be great to see what another has to offer. The reviews were so consistently great that I had to download. I prefer ad free so I immediately sprung for the $2. It is well worth $2!!! It is more than worth $2 if you love words. I ended up here because I was looking for a proverb and ended up on the idiom page of the website and saw that I could download an app. My future use remains to be seen, however look forward to using this app and being motivated to grow my word strength again... 1st update...the idiom section includes a short video that gives examples of the idiom! It was simple, clear, quick, and very teachable. I love this app already!.Version: 11.1
✓ ***### NONE BETTER ###***For any intelligent person, this is an excellent app with a wealth knowledge. The etymology is par none. The definitions include multiple entries allowing comparison, and it has a thesaurus included. It will even show translations for foreign languages. And finally, it provides examples in classic literature of how the word is used in written form. In essence, it has it all. Note that out of over 23,000 reviews this app averages 4.5 stars!! This is an EXCELLENT APP. Get it!.Version: 8.1.2
✓ WordsI just love the words that it gives me on my phone every day it is like learning a different language. Thanks.Version: 10.2
✓ Best app!!!!This is the best app I would never use anything else. It gives you accurate definitions or synonyms or whatever you need for FREE!!!! If your like me and you like things for free then you’ll definitely like this app! This app has everything you need from definitions, synonyms, word of the day, and even they have a brown challenging game. This app is so fun in many different ways but also extremely educational. (This is my first time ever writing a review I usually just put how many starts I think would fit that app but I’m glad that my first time writing a review was used on an amazing app.).Version: 13
✓ Good appThis app is better than 5 stars. I’d say 10 stars..Version: 11.1
✓ WonderfulNot only provide meanings for understanding, application also help me to learn to pronounce the word properly.Version: 9.0
✓ Better than all the restI have deleted my other dictionaries as this one beats them with content, ease of use and fun extras. It has my 👍.Version: 12.0.2
✓ The best online dictionary.When you download a digital dictionary, normally they just have words in the English language and words that are used often. Well, Farlex introduces a dictionary capable of any phrase, language or definition. No ads, no typos, it’s just perfect..Version: 13
✓ Very good useful app but has some bugsThank you for this dictionary, I’ve been using it for a year or so. I like about it that it gives fully appropriate and numerous explanations for this or that word (even with pictures). The only thing as of now I dislike and feel inconvenience as follows: 1. When I’m switching from “Dictionary” to “Thesaurus” (on the bottom of the page) it returns me back to “Dictionary”. Some malfunction in the switching process. And then I need to do it second time (all the times), it is so annoying. 2. There is the first line with the word (I searched), sound icon and transcription. I don’t have any big fingertips but when I’m pressing the sound icon to hear the word it goes to another page because it seems accidentally I press on the transcription word (which is situated too close to the sound icon), I think it needs to be placed farther from each other. Please fix all these cons. Thank you!.Version: 11
✓ French explains FrenchIt’s a good one if you are searching a dictionary with explanation in its own language.Version: 8.6
✓ I agree, it's the best all-rounderI love dictionaries and this one will pronounce words for me too. Over the years I've returned to it again and again. I like the occasional word game they offer, and would recommend it as part of any language lovers electronic arsenal. Thank you free dictionary..Version: 6.3
✓ Why I Like This AppFirst and foremost, I cannot believe we get so much more than any other dictionary app I have come across over the years, and it is free! Take time to read the apps review of their product and you will be amazed at the seemingly never-ending information at one’s fingertip. If you are the least bit grammar illiterate like I am, this is the Dictionary App for you! Thank-you Fairlex..Version: 9.0
✓ Greatest Word AppThis App is great if you ever need a correct spelling and meaning of any word of phrase. It’s easy to operate, you sign in and it’s lots of fun ! Keep up the good work guys !.Version: 13.1

✓ Super helpful for schoolThanks for the free app😺 I like all the additional information available too..Version: 8.6
✓ Very handy and straight forwardI write a lot and so I need a dictionary on hand. Well this one comes with minimal to no advertisements cluttering the interface. It’s straightforward and easy to use. They also have a few unnecessary but fun features like a word of the day (which can be added as a widget on the iPhone) and some word related games like hangman or matching games. If you went on the app even when you don’t have a word you need to look up you could spend a little time playing a mini game or learning something every day because of their fact of their idiom, article, and quote of the day. The “This day in history” section is always something I never new or thought about before so that’s a neat feature. TLDR: It works like you want it to plus extra features. Would recommend..Version: 11.1
✓ My Favourite DictionaryComprehensive, inexpensive, feature rich and allows you to bookmark favourite words into different folders.... been using it for over 5 years. I love The Free Dictionary..Version: 13
✓ TerrificUse this all the time to check word games answers. Quick and simple. Many thanks..Version: 6.3
✓ So Much More Than a Dictionary!This is by far the best dictionary I've used in print or digital format. I love that it has a thesaurus, translations, encyclopedia and medical, legal and financial dictionary. It has a customizable home page with "Word of the Day", "Quote of the Day", " This Day in History", "Today's Birthday"and word games like "Match-up", "Hangman" and more. Today's Article of the Day is "Vlad III the Impaler: The Original Dracula ". This Day in History (May 5) is about the Grand Opening of Carnegie Hall in 1891. It is so much more than just dictionary. You've got to check it out!.Version: 8.6
✓ Great appBest of all the dictionary apps I’ve used. Word lists (bookmarks) is working better than any other app. I hope it will soon be possible to play flash cards with my bookmarks, thank you.Version: 8.0
✓ My favourite appI love this app, not just for the dictionary and thesaurus elements, which are excellent, but for the historical information, random facts and especially the many word games. I highly recommend this app, it educates, stretches the mind, tells your horoscope, gives you fun games that give the brain a good workout. Bored, then just open this app and you are totally absorbed for as long as you like but never feel you've wasted your time on some brainless game..Version: 6.3
✓ Thank you for this app. Well done.So many thanks for such a great performance. I wish you keep it up..Version: 8.6

✓ The most amazing app I have ever downloaded!!This all rounder app is superb. Free quizzes and tests really challenges me in an extremely fun way. This has, for me, definitely outsmarted google unless for entertainment purposes..Version: 8.6
✓ The Free Dictionary, by FarlexThis is a great app & I would recommend everyone to install it. Even if you already have a different dictionary app, I would still encourage adding this one to your app library. It is filled with useful information that is fun & educational, & so much more. Making flash cards is simple & quick & there are so many different games & quizzes - both kids & adults will love this dictionary, I know I do!.Version: 11
✓ Very useful, fun app.This app is a handy, quick reference and also has informative links to historical and general knowledge articles which change each day. An idle minute or two can also be whiled away on the word games. There is also the chance to help others with its philanthropic side..Version: 6.3
✓ What an improvementThis app is greatly improved because of its speed and simplicity..Version: 13
✓ Amazing appIt literally tells you the meaning to every word but not only the the dictionary was amazing the thesaurus was also amazing it also had an encyclopedia which was amazing..Version: 8.6
✓ Free Pop Up AdsThis has been my favorite Dictionary Thesaurus, which I have been using for over 4 years now. The free version is really great for people who love lots of Pop up adds, because the amount of them has recently increased. So it’s time for me to do the paid subscription version since I don’t do well with distractions..Version: 12.0.2
✓ SuperUse it most every day. Love learning about people, events, new words. I enjoy the Match and Mismatch games. There is one small thing that I wish they would correct. When checking answers or reading an article, when you tap the return icon it takes you all the way back to the top of their beginning page and not where you were reading. You end up having to scroll down to where you were. Any chance of fixing that? Otherwise, an excellent ap and worthy to have. Amazing app. 2018- still using the app and love it. Love learning definitions to new words. Helps my memory and keeps me active mentally..Version: 8.3

✓ My favorite dictionary/thesaurusI’ve been using this app for years. Tried all the other dictionary apps and this is the best by far. It has everything I need: definitions, synonyms, pronunciation. The main page also has a bunch of fun stuff like word games. The best part is the “word of the day”, it’s great learning a new word everyday, although I wish the words were more complex, they often are pretty regular words that I already know..Version: 8.0
✓ Would Recommend 👍🏻👌🏻✨❤️Every useful for people who don't have a dictionary at home and need it for work or anything basically, love how it also has syllables , definitely recommend this to you 💯.Version: 8.6

✓ WherethereshopeGreat app really informative have been totally addicted since using it highly recommended please don't change a thing.Version: 7.0
✓ An excellent app for definition, origin, and regional usageThe app provides the various regions where a word is used. The app seems to draw definitions from various sources so one gets a better understanding of a particular word and how it should be used. If a certain word can have similar meanings in other disciplines it distinguishes it by indicating that that particular definition comes from a medical dictionary, etc. There is also a translation function that tells you the Spanish counterpart. I’m sure there are other languages available. This proves useful if you happen to be bilingual. The dictionary requires access to the internet. There might be a premium edition that allows one to download various dictionaries on your device. I believe there is a screen that allows one to play various word games to increase one’s vocabulary. There is also of course the standard “Word of the Day”. It’s an excellent app that I find both enjoyable and useful. It’s an app that one must have if one enjoys the origin and etymology of words.Version: 8.5
✓ Pretty good but...I’ve been using this for 4 days and it’s pretty good but please add like a voice that says the word and add more things not just a boring little search bar with words do like a pink and blue background and the letters sorted by the words tbh I don’t like search bars do like the pages like a book get inspiration from iBooks. Read a book and turn the page like that’s what I mean.... But this is actually legit and cool! Just I would like more.... and add tabs to flip to like t a r l o and n like it might be hard for some I understand but make it ya know...fun... I’m a 3rd grader and I really want fun things and I use this to study spelling words and meanings but it’s boooorrrriiinnnng without things and also please make the tabs colorful!!!!! Thanks for reading this..Version: 10.3

✓ AmazingThis app really helped me for revising and homework there is no free trile thing it is completely free it is really helpful and explains things in such an easy way so download this app now.Version: 10.2
✓ Great nifty app!You need a quick way to look up words on your mobile, you lookup dictionary in the app store, you proceed to download and use it for over a year, you suddenly realise that the app has never let you down and just works, you have an epiphany that the app is and has always been awesome, you conclude that not rating it would be a crime, you rate it five stars for pure awesomeness!.Version: 6.3
✓ AmazingThis is better than any dictionary well done.Version: 12.0.2
✓ WONDERFUL!!!!This is an awesome tool to have at your fingertips! Words that we use everyday are explained in detail once you look them up. This is also a wonderful tool while reading my Bible. While studying, I look up words I thought I knew the meaning for and come to find out that they mean something totally different!! This in turn makes the Living Word come to life!! You first have to know what words mean in your own language then you can study the Bible languages. I also like the push notification with the word of the day. AWESOME!! May God bless you all!!.Version: 8.4
✓ Great appThis is my life-saver! All that I need in one application. Very helpful tool, especially for non-native English speakers. All translations are given with examples, thesaurus is irreplaceable, daily articles are enjoyable and useful. Even short games are aimed to develop vocabulary and spelling. This is just a small part of what you get for free!.Version: 10.3

✓ MrLove this app. Don't have to search the house for one of the many book dictionaries or thesauri (plural ?) it's all here at the touch of a digit..Version: 3.3
✓ Cough up 4 bucks for this app, people!!!The app I think is so SO sooooo worth 4 bones. I LOVE it and the developers deserve to have this noticed and when u use a free version of an app often and you find it useful and interesting ans enlightening and well designed, it seems to me that paying for the one that costs just a few bucks is only fair to the developers. My philosophy is that when I have established I very much like the free version of any app and use it regularly, that it is a given to pitch in to support the people that made it. But... I dunno if people in this society of ours think much about the actual people behind the app... they dont get past the thought "is it free?". Well, people out there should use free apps all they want as I do, but the ones i use regularly I will upgrade once they become a common go to for me. But that's me..Version: 6.3
✓ Some areas requiring improvement.I like the app, there are a few things I would like improved/changed. 1. Tap on the word you typed in the search bar and alongside options such as "copy" have "save to word list". 2. Cannot find the location to update and provide weather in Auckland, New Zealand even though I could select it for my profile information. 3. Improve the layout of the information, and add more colour, it looks a bit too plain. 4. Sad face for Hang-man makes me not want to play, anyway of changing it so the facial expression is shown last? 5. Provide a hint option for Hangman. 6. Wasn't able to connect my FaceBook page via the phone, had to go on the computer to connect it to The App to login. Other than that I like the point system, the badges, games, visual image of the status of the brain getting coloured and the % etc being shown, showing how much I improve, the daily quotes, holiday, word, I can put down personal info such as Bday to have it customized to me and receive horoscopes etc. Other than that I like this app. Great job app designers :)..Version: 4.1
✓ Free DictionaryWhat a great app, a few games to play, very nice You learn something new every day, wish I had this app years ago I give it ten stars.Version: 13
✓ Love it.I am someone that has always struggled with some words and to have my own dictionary on hand on my phone, I think that it’s just brilliant and easy to use..Version: 10
✓ Most comprehensive dictionary everThis user-friendly dictionary app has all the general usage, the acronyms, the Medical, legal, and financial terms I need. It also gives you the translation into other languages at the bottom of the page. I could not function without this app. Most recommendable..Version: 6.2
✓ ReviewBest source for immediate reference such as crosswords. Sometime short on complete relationship to other wordings..Version: 4.0
✓ Top DictionaryThe best online source for my English studies. It provides me with endless resources and it’s much more practical and convenient. As non-native speaker I highly recommend this App..Version: 8.1.2
✓ Best, most useful toolI use this app often, for definitions in other languages as well. I like that it’s entire focus is as a dictionary (others have too much other rubbish included) that it offers synonyms and antonyms, that i can hear the word spoken, other language and grammar forums. I think it could do with a boost in Australianisms, but that’s a hard task and hey, who couldn’t use a boost in Strine!?.Version: 8.6
✓ Word search HintI love it it helps u doing word search 5stars :”).Version: 11
✓ Better than oxford， of courseWhat an e-dictionary should like.Version: 13
✓ PerfectA perfect dictionary app.Version: 8.6
✓ A wonderful tool I’ve used for years!I remember way back in the days when the App Store was in its infancy. The Merriam-Webster dictionary was one of the first five apps I ever downloaded and I was loyal to it for years! ... I somehow stumbled upon ‘the Free Dictionary.’ I think it took me about two weeks to fully convert into a loyalist to this app from them on! For one thing, all of the definitions I’ve ever come across are extremely thorough and as multi-faceted as necessitated. The ability to search multiple languages is fantastic and I think it’s wonderful that the language of origin is immediately identified in the search. It’s really a boon for the users who get the added benefit of learning links between cultures. I do not use the thesaurus very often* , but when I do, I’m always surprised by the quality of the suggestions as well as the nuances of the queried term. This is a wonderful app. Thinking about it now, I’m realizing I should spend more time playing around with it and meandering through the lexicon. My one complaint is that the words of the day are about as lame as can be - I don’t think I’ve seen one that would present a challenge to a second-grader, but there may be a way to adjust that. Get this app!.Version: 10.3
✓ Thank youI enjoy using the app as it helps with the definition along with the thesaurus..Version: 10

✓ Extremely helpfulBeing dyslexic I often can't look a word up in a dictionary (you need to know at least the first three letters) or if given opinions as in spell check it's helpful to check the meaning..Version: 6.3
✓ Hmc88I love this app!!! Keeps me fascinated every time I open it. The only problem I have to wait until I have time to spare as I know I will not be able to stop reading. It starts with the banners which appear on my home screen to tell me the meaning of a word but when I look it up there is then the VERY interesting articles to look at..Version: 6.3

✓ Ma'amI love this app. I use it nearly every day to learn new meanings or confirm meanings. Reading "Time" magazine again, I find I am quickly into new territory. Today's word was "Swabian" meaning a group of feudal states comprising parts of Germany, Switzerland and France. I'm hoping to turn on pronunciation in British English..Version: 3.3

I use this app almost daily as I am a writer, an educator, parent, plus I pride myself on my articulation. Everyone should have a resource as useful as this one..Version: 11
✓ Good but need to improveThe paragraphs are close to the tight edge of screen and hard to read. If there’s a little space before the first word in row, I will love it more..Version: 8.1.2
✓ App for EducationI love this app. It’s the most detailed and thorough app for expansive learning far beyond the meaning and origin of words. I’ve learned a lot about famous and infamous people and places of the world! The only thing is I wish there was a section that I could go backwards and reread information on a certain day, for example, I loved what I read four days ago and I’d like to be able to go back and read that page. Hell on that anyone?.Version: 11
✓ Most Enlightening App !!!I love this app. As an english lit student, I tend to come across words that are no longer in use or is not used as frequently, and that I need to know the meaning of in order to get a better understanding of what is being read. The Free Dictionary app is very, very useful in giving the meanings of such words. And even the era in which they were mostly used. And I simply love it!! Saves time and energy too!!.Version: 8.0

✓ KarstenVery handy tool especially when english Is your second language.Version: 2.10
✓ AwosomeHighly recommend!!! I’ve been using it for year now and it has never disappointed me..Version: 8.6
✓ Free vs Pro VersionThe free version is fine, though not perfect. Despite its limitations, though, it is still available for iOS versions prior to iOS 13. I emphasize its availability because I paid for the Pro app (separate app, not as IAP) years ago, but it now requires iOS 13, which I haven’t had time to install, yet. Today, I re-downloaded this free version because of odd syncing issues with my account between my activity on the browser site and my “outdated” Pro app. It’s a bizarre and annoying situation. I’m grateful the free app is still available for older iOS versions..Version: 9.0
✓ Excellent in all aspectsA comprehensive no-nonsense reference app that is practical and useful without the clutter and gimmicks of other apps. You can have as much or as little detail as you want and it covers just about everything you could want in a dictionary and thesaurus..Version: 10
✓ Best free dictionary app i could findAfter trying out a few i decided on this one because of all the different features. you can adjust font size, they have daily idioms quotes and words and even mini vocab games on the homepage and is overall is what i was looking for. I dont mind the odd advert either so thats not an issue for me. my only criticism is the actual graphic design and look of the app is still basic and can be a little boring and unorganised. If that were fixed it would be five stars- i definitely recommend..Version: 11.1
✓ Life-saverHave only been using this app for a week, loving it so much. Very helpful and it broadens your knowledge and understanding of any word you're not familiar with or don't understand..Version: 6.3

✓ Fantastic resourceAmazingly comprehensive. I have been using it for probably 5 years, and it has never let me down..Version: 10.3
✓ Best DictionaryEnglish is not my first language, so I have to learn it in different ways, including pronounciations, (Both American and British) which allows me how the word is pronounced in different regions. TheFreedictionary has that option. Also Being a medical student, I always wanted a medical dictionary and this app absolutely serves that purpose as well. Thasaurus, wikipedia, medical, and encyclopedia - alltogether. Just Amazing!!.Version: 13
✓ KLRI love this app, there is not a day that goes by, that I’m not using this app. I write prolifically and many times I write a word, and then a dread comes over me, is that really what that word means. If I always trusted my instinct, I would be fine, but I overthink everything. I always feel great for the confirmation from the app. I have used it for years and this is the first time I decided to review the app, that I can’t live without. Smiles..Version: 8.1.1
✓ Best online dictionaryThis app is absolutely fantastic. Synonym for fantastic...never mind. I enjoyed the fact that it showed translations and you could search meanings in other languages with having to bother about settings. I downloaded the bookman app and it is cool having to play that game and learning new words to expand my vocabulary. Thanks a lot online dictionary!.Version: 8.1.2
✓ DictionaryEasily the most valuable acquisition I now “own”. A great replacement for my book dictionaries and Word Thesaurus. So available and easily accessed. Educational Thank you. Alan Rundle.Version: 13
✓ It’s okIt’s ok when you need help as your iPhone 📱 only helps you when you ask what the word means then it goes a way fast enough that you can’t remember what it told you so this can help as it won’t go away from you fast enough so you can put in what you need and see what it says and copy it when need but don’t use it to where it will get you in trouble with the law as this would fall under plagiarism as it’s VERY BAD. YOU CAN GET IN GET PENALIZED AND GET PUT IN A JAIL-CELL. EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT HAVE PUT IT INTO A DIFFERENT CONTENT OR CONTEXT’S JUST BY COPYING THE WORD FROM THE WEBSITE AND PUTTING ON A NEW SPREADSHEET. It should always come from your comments and remarks and context’s so that way you can back up you remarks and comments. So that way it doesn’t look like you have plagiarized someone else’s work and it looks like your work. And not someone’s work..Version: 12.0.2

It has helped me understand medical terms for so many of the medical studies on Lancet and etc I’ve read since covid began. I’m a preschool teacher rather than a medical professional. Also, non-medical words- there’s always the delicious etymology... multiple detailed entries. Truly I cannot say enough wonderful about this dictionary. $2 to remove ads? Worth it to thank the developers even if ads weren’t annoying. Thank you for making this app & for keeping it ios current!.Version: 11
✓ Love it but....Love all the quizzes / word games ... I would love to see a sentence checker - so I could type in a sentence where I am wanting to use a word but am not sure it is the correct use of the word example: “ unless you unequivocally need my help I need the day off “ ( word being unequivocally (don’t think it is correct use of it but was just for explanation purposes) also maybe a word alternative suggestions for sentences where you type in what u wish to say & you are offered alternatives for certain words.Version: 9.0
