Latest reviews of Concise English Dictionary & Thesaurus 2013 app for iPhone and iPad
Very practical and lightning fast! Wish I can press on any word witching the definition to take me to its meaning directly instead of having to copy it and place it in the search field.
Really nice dictionary, with a clean and visually appealing layout. But why is the app icon so ugly? Its complete opposite of the layout of the app.
Really simple and elegant UI, truly concise and clear definition, so far the best dictionary Ive tried.
Its convenient to find words with the similar meaning
The thesaurus feature needs to be a ton more clear, easy to understand, and precise. Maybe even a thesaurus button. Will change review once this feature is improved. Wasted a dollar. Needed this for a thesaurus. Currently unusable.
