8 of 22I got all dictionaries but vey impressed with this one. One of my best ones. It's the Best in term we go with the price and content.
Fast, clean and professional. The x-reference feature with the chambers thesaurus is a great. I use it everyday and thoroughly satisfied.
It’s pretty confusing that such an elegant masterpiece has not been well-known in decades. As an ESL learner, it took me a while to find a concisely defined dictionary using relatively simple vocabulary. The vast majority of famous contemporary dictionaries tend to become wordy in terms of definitions. But the Chambers has rid me of that kind of annoyance. Three years ago, I purchased the same app on the google play store. And now I'm more than happy to invest in it again.
I finally found a dictionary that provides precise and clear definitions. I am a broad reader and find this app to be the most effective and efficient for all my readings. It syncs your favorite/bookmarked words between your iPhone and iPad. The price at 4.99 is a steal. So many features. This blows away all the free dictionary apps by far. It'd be unwise not to get this app.
If you are addicted to the English cryptic, and do AZED or Mephisto regularly, and find it cumbersome to travel with a dictionary, this is the one to buy. Sparse and efficient interface, seems to have all the content including "taghairm". Highly commended.
I've had this app for a couple of years now: it is excellent. It never comes up short when I'm looking for a word, it is beautifully designed and presented, and the pronunciation guides are top notch. I deleted OED's expensive effort after a week.
Clear, concise, and occasionally hilarious, the Chambers is the best English dictionary in existence. I’ve bought it in several forms over the years and this app does it justice.
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.). <br/>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.
