Pros and cons of Speller - Free Spell Checker app for iPhone and iPad
Speller - Free Spell Checker app good for
Its fee, it works... so delete if you do not like it and move on with your life.
Personally I think that this app is great its very useful and I dont have any problems with it. I dont have a problem with it going to Google for definitions since I use it for spelling hence the name "SPELLER" and I use it on my iPhone so if I do want a definition it does not matter cause I have a data plan. although I do think it would be a good idea for us to have the option to download the dictionary, but it should be an in app download because people with less memory probably dont want to load an entire dictionary.
Although I am a programmer I have never never made an app for for any phone but I know how annoying trying to incorporate a dictionary in to a program is. What I have done in this situation is search "dictionary script for (insert programming language here)" then you can download a script file and incorporate it into your app
Sometime I spell the word correctly and its telling me its wrong... example (construction)
My daughter really likes this app. She uses it all the time. It works as advertised....no glitches, or hiccups. It helps to improve your spelling and gives you access to google and Wikipedia for more info on the work. YOU NEED THIS APP!!
Love it, it works really well and its extremely easy to use.
The program works very well it gives you a list of words to pick from Plaza definition and let you know how to spell that word love it
Some bad moments
Great promise.. Of course it would work as a dictionary - but I could not figure out how to have it work as I composed an email. Help wanted.
It automatically closes after 5 seconds.
I deleted it and reloaded it, but still doesnt work.
Needs to support the iPhone 5 screen! please update it for iPhone 5 support!
It easier to just use Siri and ask her to look up the spelling.
Can someone please change the update back to the way it was?? Its just that I prefer it when I could just type in the word and then it would automatically go to google and say "define (blank)". Now I actually have to type that in myself. The purpose of this app was for me to be able to quickly get the definitions of words, but now it takes me even more time to find the words than to just actually go on google and ask for the definition myself. I also dont like how there are three options for Wikipedia and some other random thing ( it shows a picture of books). It is very confusing. It takes me 10 times more time to get definitions and synonyms for the words. Can someone please change it back. I really need this app, but I dont like how it is anymore. I would appreciate it so much. :)
Does not work with 7.1. Crashes immediately after typing a letter...disappointing I loved this app
