Comments for Android

★★★★★ Trustworthy and reliable dictionary with multiple meanings, origin of word, correct way to pronounce and easy to understand examples.
★★★★★ It has all the components that enable me access to the meanings of words and backed by its classic thesaurus.
★★★★★ Oh my god, What is a dictionary? The best dictionary in the world to make my English better and best. Even its games for vocabulary are out of my knowledge, but it made me try and try to make my vocabulary better. Even I can use it offline. All words of world are here in this dictionary to tell their meanings, synonyms and antonyms. Best 💯👍👌
★★☆☆☆ Merriam-Webster app doesn't at all appear in the list of apps when selecting a text > then tapping "Share". It should be easier to launch the Merriam-Webster app from other apps (for example browsers, or book readers, etc.), even if the user then has to manually paste the text in the search bar in the Merriam-Webster app, that's OK. Just simply need to make it easier to launch this app, a way to switch/jump from other apps, when selecting/copying a text, to be Shared to Merriam-Webster app.
★★☆☆☆ The dictionary itself is good, but they haven't addressed a major usability issue for over 5 years. When you're viewing the definition of some word, the links to other words are incredibly sensitive and prone to activating inadvertently. Attempting to scroll down usually registers as tapping on something instead and sends you to another entry. And then it's impossible to go back to where you were with the back button or otherwise. I'm fed up and uninstalled.
