The best Farley brand dictionary. My church friend must have this app on her iPhone 6S and still using it.
★★★★★Yvette Murphy· Jun 25, 2026
It is just what I needed. It helps me to pronounce words that I cannot pronounce. It helps me to get a better understanding through thesaurus on the meaning of a word. I really like this dictionary.
★★★★★Laura Stratten· Dec 10, 2025
A most satisfying Dictionary App!! And the extras are really Great. And all this For Free!! I recommend it to anyone who reads Dictionaries like books. Moi, according to my better half 😺
★☆☆☆☆Jeffrey George· Apr 13, 2026
App installed itself. Watch out! Responding to response: developer might not have been the one to initiate install, but it was installed without any desire, input, or control by me. Due to that, never launched, never tried. Might be great.

Edit: what happened to the ad free version? I bought the ad-free version years ago. I should have it. Shouldn't I ? aNg
★★☆☆☆Rita Burton· Jun 17, 2026

★☆☆☆☆Ravi Jaisinghani· Oct 10, 2025
The audacity to take over the entire phone screen for a minute with your repeated pop-up paid ads makes you rubbish.
