Struggling with writer's block? WordApp suggests related words, rhymes, synonyms, or antonyms to words you provide

Word App - v1

---

For creative writers, songwriters, rappers, and poets struggling with writer's block, WordApp saves you a ton of stress by suggesting related words, rhymes, synonyms, or antonyms as accurately as possible.

The Rhymes constraint, for instance, requires that the results are pronounced similarly to the user's entry. If the string of characters doesn't have a known pronunciation, the system will make its best guess using a text-to-phonemes algorithm.
