I couldn't recall if "contentedly" was a proper English word or not, so I looked it up on this app. It found no results, but linked to the word "contently." I thought that meant the word is incorrect, until I clicked on the link and found it defined by the word "contentedly!" To use one word to define another, yet not even have that word in your dictionary?! Go download Webster or Cambridge instead!

I love the Dictionary app. It helps me spell words properly and helps me get a deeper understanding of definitions so I can communicate more clearly. It's fun to learn new words and the history behind those words. My favorite is the thesaurus. There are so many ways to use different words that are of similar meaning, which can lead to even more learning and understanding. Great fun! Excellent app!

I love this app. However, the "Word of the Day" is not shown now for some reason. I tried re-enabling it through system settings and it says that "This app does not send notifications". What gives? This feature was amazing. I'll give a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating until you bring back notifications, especially the "Word of the Day". Thank you!
