Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app since a lot of time now. Got uninstalled by mistake.. wordweb is amazing. The definitions are simple and to the point. However, I would like to have Wordweb save the history of all the searched words in storage or something. It does save words to a particular point, after that though it just deletes the previously searched words. Also swiping on keyboard doesnt work on this app. I would really appreciate if the Wordweb team makes these changes in the future update.

Excellent and very handy. Very user friendly interphase. It is a must have for students at all levels. Use it and you will realise its importance. Thanks to the developers. The best features are - It works in offline mode. Secondly it does not make the system hang. Third, it can be easily transferred to the SD card. So it doesn't occupy your mobile's memory. Most importantly the word meanings are exact and nicely explained and illustrated with examples. You also get related words easily.

Fantastic Dictionary! Have been using the free version of Wordweb for quite some time and I'm loving it. The only problem seems to be lack of efficient way to navigate the bookmarked words. It would be highly convinient if we could swipe to go to suceeding words instead of having to go back to the list again and again. Developers have done a great job creating this wonderful app. Cheers!
