Noooo
bay?????

Won’t let me use what is supposedly free


What a joke
Inna Campbell

Returned zero results for “late night”, than crashed and asked me to pay again to login after reboot.


Absolute Rubbish
Ironchef Hawaiian

Don't waste your money. Horrible app. It's a punched up search engine, you pay $7 a year to use. Phrases like "she looked up" are unreadable, to the app. The app wants you to use IT'S keywords - so to get a suggestion, you have to translate your phrase to suit their app. Stupid. But not as stupid as I was, for buying this app.


Incredibly extensive
Freelance8229

A friend tipped me off to this app, and I'm glad that he did. I am a freelance novelist and have been looking for a good source for cross-referencing phrases, and for finding obscure phrases to include in my descriptions when I write...I've only been playing with this app for a few hours but I am already finding it useful. It has a ridiculous number of cross-referenced phrases and definitions, and it even tracks the phrases through literary history. Can't wait to see what else I can discover about it.


Amazing
Bibliotechophile

I can't imagine how they were able to compile all of this information and make it so accessible and so cool!!!!


Great Writing Ap!
Hg Wells

This is still new with room to expand. But it is clearly different from the run-of-the-mill thesaurus. Fascinating color to use in writing with source references and background. Even this early in its development and with the limited time I've been using it, I can highly recommend it as another tool in the writer's quiver. Looking forward to the release of the Mac desktop version.


It's NOT free
Mrs.Curly q

It would have been nice if they would tell you that you have to pay for this. They make it look like its free but you have to pay a monthly subscription fee to use this. Because it wasn't clear I deleted it within 10 min of loading it.


A deep breath
Abhati

This refreshingly creative app is the spark plug I now choose to start my day. Begin with a simple word and be led to a maze of delights of the written word, both obscure and familiar. This app is for those of us who " think in quotes" as well as those who long for the apt phrase. Or is my favorite part the bonus of having the ready answer to " who said that?" A year's worth for less than the cost of a movie!


Not Free
OjaiRtist

This App is not free. $1.99 minimum to open it. I would like the chance to try it before subscribing. It's probably very good but I'm not intrigued enough to pay for it.


Great app
Lfl2112

This is a great app for finding different and interesting alternative words and phrases, and provides excellent entomological information.
