Junk!!!!!!!!

Appsogay

Slow as hell and crashes every time... You can find a better one for free! Screw you for wasting my time!!!!!!


This app is useless

Lalew25

If you don't have an Internet connection this app is pretty much useless. I really don't find many apps that I hate but I can never use this one when I need it.


Disappointing limited Lexicon

Bink_In_AK

I bought this on Wolframs reputation and I am very disappointed in the limited lexicon. Most times Wolfram cannot find a word I am searching. I am going to remove this app because Webster's has a better success at finding definitions than Wolfram. I really expected more from Wolfram. I question whether the Wolfram of Mathmatica fame even still exists.


missing too many words

boorman56

I play scrabble and attempted to use this app. Too many times words found in scrabble dictionaries were "unknown" on this app. No good.


Useful

Chauncey Robinson

It's a useful app but it constantly crashes or freezes so I uninstalled it.


ok...

Alex Behling

this is garbage on the ipod, but very useful on the ipad.


Unnecessary and Incomplete

iByron

Everything here can be done through the full WolframAlpha app or the WolframAlpha web site. If you've already paid for the full app, no need to shell out the additional buck for this. If you do buy it, prepare for disappointment. The words WA knows is a severely limited set. I attempted to use the Anagrams function to find anagrams of my name. It found none. The Internet Anagram Server finds almost 1400, and I could do a dozen just off the top of my head. If you happen to hit the words WA knows, the information is interesting and in-depth. I recommend the full app. though. You'll get much better value for that price.


Does not do synonyms

rippercat

Asked for synonyms for "generous" - no synonyms produced.


Keyboard obscures screen when I type

Entropy123

With the Wolfram name I expected a great deal. I am disappointed. When I type in a word that needs definition, the keyboard obscures the text entry field. I can't see the words I am typing in.


Was looking forward to purchasing this app.

Damon_Williams

But can away totally disappointed. given how great the WolframAlpha app is, I decided to flip a buck for this - and I wish I had that 99 cents back. The UI is hideous, and hasn’t been updated in years. The look, feel and response all seem from am iOS two, three versions ago. It does what it purports to do fairly well, but from an outfit such as Wolfram, I just expected more. So two stars for its creation, existence and filling a niche, but three stars off for horrible implementation and UI.
