Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Great Dictionary!

    By Ames Brown (NYC) (Pcmac user)

    This the app app is an amazing app, like all of Word Webs. Here are my recommendations to the developer for mobile: (1) Just as with your desktop software, let you switch in tabs between all the dictionaries and thesauruses you purchase. That is a critical feature in your desktop applications and increases their value and makes it sensible to buy ALL your dictionaries. This would be a moneymaker for WordWeb and great for users. (2) Why not sell your other desktop dictionaries on mobile? No work and more revenue, and your users would benefit. Here is my recommendation regarding Desktop: (1) Please make the spacing and placement of lines of text consistent as one switches between the tabs of WordWeb books. (2) Please use MacOS built-in support for graphics card acceleration for more natural resizing on the wide variety of displays. It looks really bad as you resize and for a business to purchase this app for this users, that raises questions of longevity.
  • The very best for cryptic crosswords

    By Nate (Pcmac user)

    This is the standard dictionary used by creators of cryptic (British-style) crosswords. If you do those, you’ll want this. If you aren’t doing cryptics, this is still a great dictionary. For each word there is a list of definitions. The definitions themselves are very short and easy to understand. And I’m often surprised at just how many definitions they’ve documented for each word. The common usages are defined, but so are obscure ones. The “setters” who create cryptic crosswords use lots of archaic words, and many obscure definitions of common words. All are in this dictionary.
  • Superb app

    By Prince Caspian's Mouse (Pcmac user)

    the app has become my go-to dictionary for everyday use, both online and in print. It seems to have more entries than American Heritage, Merriam-Webster's Collegiate, or the Oxford American Dictionary, and its definitions are often simpler and almost always at least as precise. The app is easy to use, completely functional even with relatively old versions of iOS, and uncluttered by annoying pop-up ads and banners—and it's free. What's not to like? Highly recommended.
  • Best English Dictionary App

    By Hypotyposis (Pcmac user)

    By far the best I have tried—the interface is both fast and pleasant, and offers powerful search features that should be standard on any dictionary application (including wildcard, partial matches, homonyms, etc.). This is the closest I have come to enjoying an English dictionary app more than its printed version. For French dictionaries, the Dixel app definitely brings dictionaries in the era of the portable computer.
