Comments on Webster's English & Thesaurus for Android
★★★★★William Wise· Mar 27, 2021
I gained dictionaries by their definition of the term "fascism" because it has been cooped by political force to be printed as "right wing" which produces SEVERE cognitive dissonance in students of political science. It is different from national socialism and even Marxism however the three are close enough to create confusion. As WW2 ended, socialists created confusion in their desperation to not be the one vilified along with the Nazis.

It's a little buggy. I've paid for the full version and for 3 months after, it kept asking me to pay for the full version. And just because it's a dictionary, and thesaurus doesn't mean you can't have it look a little better.
★★★★★Bruce Lowdon· Jul 25, 2021
Helps me find the words that fit the best. I am happy to recommend this app to my friends and family.
★★☆☆☆Ray Fisher· Dec 9, 2020
I was looking for a quick and easy dictionary/thesaurus app. I found this to be neither. But the worst part is that it's only a TRIAL version, which wasn't made obvious in the info. As much respect as I have for Webster's, I'm still deleting this app.
★☆☆☆☆Tubby Moby· Apr 30, 2025
Paid for the ads free, but after downloading onto a new hand phone, ask me to pay again. Should have a function to restore previous purchases. Otherwise, 5 stars
★☆☆☆☆.· Jun 20, 2021
Such a bad dictionary. Too many ads. Every word that you will search will have 5 seconds ad before that. Pathetic!!! Who has time for all this drama?
