I installed it and could not find it to use it, when I clicked on words and it was not appearing on my list of extensions. I wanted to remove it but I cannot find it, also I wanted to reinstall it but when I try, it says already installed even I do not appear to have it installed.

I couldn't get it to work. Then I found there is no way to remove it. It does not show up on my list of extensions, but says installed when I search for it, and invites me to rate it. So am doing so. Instead am using the Look up on Merriam extension, which works. This is just as well as likewise there is no way I can see to remove it.

It's just a shortcut. What's the point? You can bookmark m-w.com. Same thing.

Another "Can't find it, use or delete it" review. One review says that it is a web page. Not an app. Which makes sense as it's not listed anywhere on my device. But makes no sense as in why did it need to be "downloaded"? It does not show a link.... Please feel free to enlighten me as to how to use. But I do not see the publisher answering the other 'can't find, use or delete" reviews. I would gladly like to change my rating. Hate to be negative about someone's hard work. Kind of frustrating.

Expected it to actually BE a dictionary, not a come-on to buy one. The Android version works very well.
