Dictionary

A simple offline dictionary app for the Light Phone III.

Features

  • Offline dictionary search using local Open English Wordnet database
  • Word pronunciation using Android text-to-speech with adjustable voice speed
  • Save words for later review

Known issues

A few things I thought were acceptable for an initial "I want something right now" release, but I'll look into improving them later:

  • If a word isn't included in Open English Wordnet, it won't be available here. OEW does not include foundational words like "what", "because", "of", etc.
  • Pronunciation is rudimentary and uses Android text-to-speech instead of IPA. This can lead to inaccuracies for certain words, esp. words which have different pronunciations for different meanings.

Installation

The latest APK is available in releases.

I recommend using Obtainium and adding the repository's URL to receive updates.
