- You cannot pay to remove the ads.
The power of words…
This app is one of my favorites! The combination of a thesaurus & dictionary at my fingertips is invaluable. If I could make one improvement, it would be the option to see an unfamiliar word used in a sentence for context.
Inappropriate ads
Within 5 minutes of use, it was showing nude pictures in the ads.
Useful
Great for cryptic crosswords
Ehh
Useful tool, but glitchy. Needs some bug fixes. Erases what I type when I search a new word and goes back to last searches.
Bookmarks gone!
Great new look but all my bookmarks from years of use have disappeared.
perfect
i have an older model of iPhone and this app loads instantly. there are no adds and the ui is minimalist.
Change isn’t always good
I enjoyed the layout and depth of each and every antonym and synonym - but you’ve taken that away, so I’ll have to use another app
Very good but can’t handle a space
At first I thought it wasn’t working at all, but then realized that the word I pasted also contained a space after the text. Once I removed the space it produced the results, which were an abundance of synonyms. Thanks for a great free app.
Search Function fails to Work
At every Bos he is a Sesrch Function. Great!!! However, nothing happens, even though the drop Down menu even has the word you are Looking for!! Nothing happpens, other than taken back to another Sesrch window in another section of the App. Other wise, other features like history are good. Love the DAILY word Reminders of mesnings of words. GET THE SEARCH FUNCTION functioning, please Russell😎 +6141 090 4712
Pronunciation
It is a good app so far but it lacks pronunciation. Please add this feature.
Pocket Thesourus
Very helpful resource in my writing class. Use it all the time
The old version was great. The new and improved is unusable!
I used to use this app all the time, but this new release does not work. I will look for something to replace this now.
Practical App
This app has been a great crutch for me when being stumped on what to write for things like English analysis and essays. As helpful as it has been- an update to the apps aesthetic and UI would be really awesome.
Pocket thesaurus app
I like it except for the ads so, I will not keep it until you take away the ads. Plus, you don’t give an option to pay to get rid of the ads. That’s why I won’t keep it otherwise it’s a meet app.
Great free tool
Great free tool for finding synonyms etc. I use it for writing song lyrics. A list of alternate word possibilities is a good way to start thinking in several new and different directions quickly. Great for creativity and very convenient!
.
It really didn’t work for me....
Convenient & worth the convenience.
I love the fact that I don’t have to open an internet app in order to pick a synonym. The app opens quickly, requires minimal memory or power even if I keep it open in the background. My only complaint is that it does not have the either the detail or the scope that I often look for in a thesaurus. But then if I’m writing something that requires greater depth then this app has, I’m most likely doing it on my laptop anyway. Pocket Thesaurus is a good compromise, and typically gets me to what I’m looking for swiftly and with minimal fuss! I’ve been using it for nearly a year, and I’m not searching for a replacement. Download the app for yourself and you’ll see what I mean. — D
Problem
Great App ... would have given five stars, except it stores history with no apparent way to delete the history. I think this app may use up memory over time. I will delete this app if no fix appears in updates.
Te words do acrobatics and gives me tons of excuses
Awesome
Very bad application
Too many adds, user unfriendly. I put in a word, it selects another word. Doesn’t work on my iPhone. Looking for an alternative
Very Handy Tool
This is a goose FREEtook to use on the go. I work on my MS Office documents everywhere so I can open this app while editing to find better choices. The improvement I would make is to add more synonyms and level up the word options to include complex words. Thanks for app - good job!
Misspelling
Rather funny that there is a misspelling on the search page. Wonder if anyone working for this company can figure out which one it is?!?
Very great
T1-5
Search Function Does Not Work
The word I’m searching for disappears. Always.
I like this app
I enjoy using my pocket thesaurus. I would only suggest that making this high quality application more intuitive would never be a bad thing.
Remains to be seen
Only just installed this app - so far problems reported by other uses have not happened. If it keeps up this way the app is very good and 100% better than a similar app I downloaded.
Very simple usage
I can easily navigate through this app for many synonymous quickly.
App
Doesn’t open !😡😡😡
Worked well though problem
This app really helps me a lot with my work however after only 2 days of use the words I type do not come and the previous word remains this is driving me crazy 😜 and I do not know what to do !!!!! If the problem could be fixed the app is still very helpul
I was hoping for more complicated words
The application is adequate as far as understanding words. It's just the daily words are for children! Or maybe people from Fresno.
Great assistant!
I love pocket thesaurus! I'm currently working through college english classes, and having a thesaurus at my fingertips spices up my writing!
Unsuccessful in even getting it to work !
Awful, how does it even work ? I was never able to investigate 1 word .
More synonyms
I think this app should have easier synonyms for kids but everything else is excellent.
Great App!
I do believe this is the handiest app I’ve owned… With the hope of being an author one day, Pocket Thesaurus comes in handy quite often in my writings. The app is smooth, brings up synonyms and antonyms with their definitions and all! Love this app… 😉❤️
Pocket Thesaurus
I cannot get it to work at all. One star is very generous; it should actually be zero. It keeps advertising to install Grammarly. I have turned off the word for the day and it still gives me synonyms for the word for the day and refuses to search for synonyms for the word I type in the search bar. I have an 8S+ iPhone and the The Thesaurus and Dictionary Apps work perfectly but your Pocket Thesaurus doesn’t look up a single word I put in the search area.
Slight problem but excellent!
This app is very handy when you’re on the go; the only problem is that sometimes you can’t have synonyms for the words you need. All in all, I would definitely recommend this to a friend.
Annoying ads, great app
Please offer the option to pay to get rid of the ads. This simple and snappy and off-line capable app is the best thesaurus among the half a dozen I’ve tried in the App Store.
Pocket thesaurus
Didn’t do anything and wouldn’t search words. Needs work v
Excellent
I have been commended on my writing since accessing this app. Easy to use and quick.
