For years I've used this app on various devices, but for some while on a fairly old (by modern standards) Galaxy Note 4 (Android 6.0.1). Recently, it began to crash with the message "Unfortunately, Chambers Thesaurus has stopped." Eventually, today, I uninstalled the app from my phone and re-installed it from the Play Store. All seemed satisfactory. When I opened it the first time it ran fine. Phew. Good news. I closed it and a few minutes opened it to use again and once more that message. :-(

I'm sure it's me, but I find the Chambers Dict and Thesaurus (both Pro) almost impossible to navigate without Wordweb - which is fine I suppose but everything falls apart when I need to search from online editors - which is most of the time. Integration with Twitter is good but other apps are persnickety.

My absolute favourite thesaurus app. Fast responses, easy to use, has far more content than competitors. Price tag is excellent. No stealthy ads. I have repurchased this on multiple devices. Nothing better than this one for me.
