This is a great app, I play Text Twist and other word games and write a lot of technical papers and I have found this App to be a great resource. I’m especially excited about an update!!! Actually I was just wondering if they ever did updates.. but with so many App developers giving you so little for your money and taking SO MUCH, I didn’t want to complain about an App that was flawless in every aspect!!! And a week later...an update!!!!!! I encourage everyone who can use a dictionary, thesaurus, or just a complimentary word source for your writing needs or gaming, this is the best app available in the App Store!
If you play various word games, this is a very nice, easy to use app. Much nicer that the previous app I used, which allowed only one position of the iPad. Seems to have a fairly exhaustive vocabulary, too.
I've never done this before. But this is an excellent product. And recently when I was having a problem with making the switch to the new iPad and the "cloud" I sent the developer an email and he not only responded the very next day, but also compensated me with a free copy of the newer version to make up for the problems I'd experienced! The new HD version is lovely and VERY user friendly, as well as doing a great job of addressing some of the concerns I've heard expressed by others! Keep up the good work and great customer service!
This is an excellent app & one I cannot do without, especially in the game "Words with Friends". Plus, I am learning new words and their meanings everyday. It really is an excellent tool!
Only gave 4 stars because I am disappointed in the number of words that are NOT words...but it does work very well with the Words (that are NOT words) with Friends game.
So many different approaches to finding words! One beef: this tool is landscape and Scrabble is portrait so I'm constantly turning my iPad as I go between apps.
