Pretty-needs work
Very beautiful. Extremely nicely design. Hats off to such an elegant and functional interface. But....... The thesaurus function is pretty much a joke, very limited selection. If you need a REAL full-featured thesaurus, look elsewhere. Also, when this app is accessed through Phraseology, you must press and tap -the specific word and floating windows - too many times to be easy. Actually it's a hassle.
Horrid!
Doesn't even work! Type in a word and nothing happens! FAIL!

I bought this app and then when an update was available I updated it and now it doesn't even work. Not sure if it has something to do with the iPad 3 or not.
