Merriam-Webster Dictionary+ App Reviews

Noah would be proud of y’all!

I use it almost daily for words I don’t understand/recognize or just to expand my vocabulary

I have been using this app for a few months and it never let me down.

Please stop moving the search bar throughout the app. It should always be at the top (or bottom for ergonomics). When I use the app (just like when I use a real dictionary) it should be perfectly predictable in its layout.

Webster’s Dictionary is the most useful tool on my phone. I use it nearly everyday for clarification as well as discovery! A must have for all ages. I am 71 yrs. old…learning never stops! I am so thankful and grateful for this valuable tool!

The dictionary would be outstanding if there was a way to put your saved words into folders AND you could make quizzes from your saved words. Otherwise, the features included are utilitarian.

This is one of the best Apps I use on a daily basis. Always fun to continue to grow my vocabulary! Word games are also great fun!

8/28/23 This app has helped me to learn not only my own language, but a second and third language as well. I don’t know what I would do without it. Also, I enjoy playing the word games. They’re great for learning new words and keeping your brain occupied, especially when you’re stressed out. Keep’em coming, I love it! Thank You All.

Great, wish there were more etymology

Superb free app dictionary with thesaurus and other features. I mean it’s Merriam-Webster so it’s kind of the final word in words, but the app is surprisingly well-featured. It’s great!

This app has never let me down as long as I have used it. Definitions, Latin roots, and a thesaurus are all contained therein. I’m grateful not to lug around 2 five pound books, but simply to have it at my disposal on my mobile device.

I regularly turn to this source when reading or writing. The app provides me a definition, synonyms and antonyms. And the accessibility makes for great assistance, right in my hand!

I don’t skip over words that I am not sure that I comprehend so when reading complex articles I rely on this dictionary app. I like being able to save words that have been looked up. One major flaw in the app is the inability to look up modern usage of phrases and words. There I have to return to the internet.

This would be even better if the app could be programmed to toggle easily and quickly as I that as I’m reading I can look up words without having to leave the app I’m in. Also, I’d like the ability to touch a spot on the word definition page so I can keep an ongoing list of new words and their definitions to review periodically. And I’d also like more small illustrations, if, in fact the word pertains to or is an object or an action pertaining to a noun (such ad running ortteins to people m,

The app is good if you need offline access, otherwise you’re better off just using the web version, which includes many words that are missing from the app (as I frequently discover when playing some popular word-puzzle games). Several times a week I try to look up a word in the app, and it doesn’t show it as a word, only for it to be there as a fully defined word on the web version of the same MA dictionary. Oh well!

You are doing a great job.

As an ESL student, I appreciate it a lot.

….a fantastic tool for anyone thirsting for knowledge.

I’ve been “hooked on” the M-W app for many years and have thoroughly enjoyed using it! I am a sort of word nerd who is curious about origins, meanings, and spellings. Your daily email goes a great way toward satisfying my curiosity! The word games keep my mind sharp and “au courant” with our ever-changing language. Thank you so much for the app! Barbara

Worth the GB to download! Fun games too when you want a quick yet NOT mind numbing distraction.

This is the best dictionary app I have tried. It is easy to use, and it’s not cluttered with ads—unlike another dictionary app that shall remain nameless, except that I sort of just named it.

I read Word of the Day almost everyday. It uses very recent uses of the word as examples. The word origin part shows a deep knowledge and dedication of the writer. Thanks for your great work!

Always my first choice and best choice to get a definition

This is the best dictionary app out on the market. I am happy that I found this app. I recommend this app for all who really like an easy and efficient and fast means to check your spelling.

It’s great to correct my spelling and to enhance my understanding of words. I even look up words I know the meaning of, just to get a deeper understanding of a sentence.

I have always kept a dictionary at hand and used it often. Now I enjoy having your dictionary at my fingertips all the time! Thank you for providing an essential service. Sometimes I miss the extra detail my old “Unabridged” version included.

Love the app! I consider this my “gold standard” dictionary. Only recommendation is if there were recommendations for misspelled words.

Excellent dictionary. Easy to navigate. Includes synonyms, antonyms and use of the words in a sentence. Has some fun games. Highly recommend.

Unable to use since I did the latest update on my phone, really frustrating. Upon opening, I was automatically logged out and prompted to sign back in. Once I did, not once have I been able to use the app. Everytime I open, the app freezes & can’t access anything or any features.

Whether you use Mac, PC, iOS, or Android (I have all in my family) the user interface yields solid results. Outstanding for breaking writer’s block when you are searching for just the right word.

An excellent experience to use the paid version. Cuts hassle and opens new vistas of learning.
