seems worthless

Mekh12 · 11 years ago

There seem to only be a handful of useless words that are free. An in-app purchase ($27.99!!!???) appears to be required to look up real words. I just downloaded this, and will be deleting it as soon as I finish typing. If I am incorrect, it is not worth the trouble to figure out how to use the app when I can use my internet browser anyway. I’m extremely disappointed.
