Really?   I'm not the smartest guy, honest, but I knew all of these words. Every single one. I'll grant you this: I like to read and have a bigger than average vocab. But still, I thought these were all common-knowledge words. Anyway it's a free app, so it can't hurt to download. That said, Enfour makes another app, the full American Heritage Dictionary Fourth Edition, and that is probably the best dictionary available for the iPhone. If you really want to build your vocab, I suggest buying that excellent dictionary instead of getting this, and looking up words you don't know while you read. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by dahno

It is good   It doesn't have the voice for all the words though.
Anyways I don't think I would ever be able to use any of these words on a wim. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by TonESolo
I don't understand the point of this...   I think I'm missing somthing... I don't quite understand this app... Whats the point? If I'm making a speech then I'm suppose to randomly choose one of these words and fit it in?
Why is their a search option when their is only 100 words? Isn't the point of a search feature to help you find a word in a dictionary, or a song in iTunes? Those are catagoryd with millions of things, and this just 100. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by GreenHat37
Cool Idea!   The only other thing to add is a way to find synonyms to common words. Otherwise, it is amazing! Great user interface. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Mattrox
Sweet   I like this because whenever I make conference calls to my friends about planning a killer party I can impress them with these smart words. Everyone should have this to feel smart at times because it makes " ya feel good". I think doctors should prescribe this to patients that are feeling depressed. A smart word every now and then can cheer ya right up like mavericks! - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Jesus0007
Good Little App   Did you mean "Pedantic" Bijansta?
All in all this is a very good app that could do with some improvements as it seems lazily done. For starters, not all of the words have audio examples attached eg "Idiosyncratic." Also, $3 is way too much although it would easily be worth 2.
Edit: good to see you've changed some of the problems since the update though. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Rollo
Excellent when free   I am very pleased with this application, however I would not pay for it. Boondoggle is my favorite word now :) - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Crayboff
Awesome app!   I am always striving to make my vocabulary even more esoteric. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by SRini

Surprisingly Useful   I almost didn't download this just because of the name... 'sound smart'? "I think that it's better to BE smart rather than just sounding smart.", I thought.
However, if you get past the title and do decide to download it, you'll find that it's not a book about fooling people. Rather, it's more like an adult's advanced vocabulary lesson with detailed examples for the varying definitions of 100 commonly misunderstood words. Many of them I had a vague understanding of, but didn't *really* know exactly what they all meant.
I recommend giving this a shot if you'd like to refresh or expand your vocabularly. Even if you already know some of the words, you'll learn alternate definitions and uses that you weren't aware of. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by XavaX
Don't update   Got it free and not worth more than .99.
Update includes splash screen. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Appstore Reviews
Need pronunciation   I got the app when it was free but now that is $2.99 I think it's not up to that price yet because it still needs the audio pronunciation for each words. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by Crush LA
Pointless app   I already know all of these words. Thankfully I got this app for free because I can't imagine paying money for it. I really like the idea and was hoping to learn new words. Apparently I'm either already too intelligent or this app is sad commentary on the general population. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by crazyleila
Huh?   Why would anyone is his right mind *ever* pay $2.99 for this? I am completely baffled. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by JGoobs
Great   It's a great app! If you are already a smart person some of the words seem a little childlike but most are very helpful! Good app not let's make a "200 words to make you sound smarter". Thanks! - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by shanlyng
700 word minimum   This list is okay. The speech feature is nice because people often know words from reading but don't know how to pronounce them. That said I would expect a well-read 10th grader to know all of these words.
The Heritage people should just combine all their 'word books' into one book at one price. I gave three stars for the execution, layout, and idea.
If you want to sound smart download some free classic novels and read them. - 100 Words to Make You Sound Smart review by sodesune
