HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (1.8 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ It's easy to search for what I need.
★★★★★ The interface is clean and easy to use.
★★★★★ Great and simple, but it's locked in favourites screen!
Useful, it helps11%

3 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I use this dictionary constantly as I read The Book of Mormon, as it is helpful to see the words commonly used in Joseph Smith Jr's time.
★★★★★ However, as someone who is vision impaired, it would be very helpful if I could enlarge the font sizes within the app or zoom in on the screen.
★★★★★ Having said that, I have found this unique dictionary to be incredibly useful, when trying to understand words from a different era.

Found by matching words and phrases in the reviews, not read by a person. A review can count toward more than one theme.

Great Resource!

I use this dictionary constantly as I read The Book of Mormon, as it is helpful to see the words commonly used in Joseph Smith Jr’s time.

★★★★★Aug 10, 2026
Great app to have

I’m so happy and glad I made this purchase. It’s easy to search for what I need. I can star words I’m looking for and come back to it later. It’s easy and convenient to have in my phone, especially because the physical book is so heavy to carry around.

★★★★★May 24, 2026
Great Quick Lookup of Word's Historical Definitions

Great to have a quick way view a word's historical definitions, choose favorites and make notes about the word defined. --- However, as of latest update the Note's Font Color is invisible. My iPhone iOS 26.5 Display Settings is set to Dark Mode.

Store description

Step into the pages of Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language—the only mainstream dictionary of its day threaded with thousands of Scripture quotations. Among early-nineteenth-century general-purpose references, nothing rivals its sweeping definitions, offering a front-row seat to an America where civic ideals and sacred language spoke in the same voice. Rich in scriptural and classical references, Webster’s work remains indispensable to historians, theologians, and cultural scholars. Writers and poets will likewise recognize its value: Emily Dickinson relied on these very definitions to refine meaning and nuance in her verse. This digital edition preserves the 70,000+ original definitions and their etymologies. The app’s Search, Favorites, and per-entry User Notes functions provide swift and organized access to the entire work. This latest release, offers the ability to email any definition—optionally including your own annotations—enabling easy sharing and collaboration.
