Shyamal Bhunia (ID: 00000098a63c56a8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/09/2022 Using Word Web for more than 7-8 years now. I use it across devices like mobile phones, laptops, Desktops. It is the best one can get for quick look-up. Thanks.

wgrower (ID: 000000ab7f112e54) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/07/2021 I have used WordWeb for a dozen years or so and each new version has made word look up easier with new features and enhancements. If you want to quickly lookup a word's meaning, look no further. WordWeb offers multiple dictionaries - Chambers, Collins, Oxford- and a thesaurus. WordWeb will even pronounce the word for you. I highly recommend it to anyone who does a lot of writing, explaining, reading or studying English.

Akhona Bhokani (Ara) (ID: 000000a5bafc8159) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/19/2021 WordWeb (standalone and/or extension) has always been on every device I've owned, be it laptop or smart phone. It is an indispensable tool for anyone who cares about expression of language (English in this case.) Love it and it's one of the first apps I consider when getting a new device.
