One of the only resources I have found like this. I use it for building fantasy languages, and it works wonderfully for that. I have two wish list items though:1st. It would be awesome if you could create a custom keyboard that you could use to enter in information with. Other custom keyboards I have tried don’t seem to work with this app.2nd. I’d love it if you could get a full view of the items you have created, with the word, pronunciation, and meaning all visible side by side, and a description visible below them. Having to click into each one to see this information is a bit cumbersome. Hope the work on this continues!
The best dictionary creator I’ve found

Newpedia’s Dictionary Creation app is surprisingly handy. I quickly jumped to the paid subscription for the added features - and it’s working out well. I’ve started four dictionaries. The only complaint I have so far - and I could be missing how to do thus - is it does not automatically Dort the entries in to alphabetical order. The search feature works well. Glad to have found Newpedia.

I’ve been looking for an application to help me increase my vocabulary. This application almost does exactly what I need. My two biggest criticisms; first, while I do not want to ask programmers to work for free, I don’t want to spend thousands of dollars on applications. I will usually pay a one time fee to remove advertisements but as a rule, I no longer subscribe to applications that require annual renewals. The other thing I find lacking, is the ability to import a dictionary like description of the word, with pronunciation, synonyms, usage examples, etc. But for now, it meets my basic needs.
alright app

This app is very useful for organizing dictionaries and stuff, but here is some things the creator can add:1. Features With TimeI can understand the SNS, sharing on Facebook or Twitter, but what about the younger people? You can make it so if your in the app for like a hour, you unlock a feature, you don't have to do this, but you can if you want.The SNS is kinda annoying, cause i don't have facebook and twitter, and i have to make an account. I usually don't like doing it. 2. Copy and PasteWhy is Copy blocked? I don't know why would someone block copy, a lot of people use it to save info, what if you wanted to copy information about a word, but you couldn't copy, but it would take you a good time to just copy every single thing you want for your word/item. So at least make the Copy and Paste just a little accessible to use. 3. SubscriptionsI don't really like subscriptions, or most people do, thats what i think. If you can make a limited time feature during a special time such as Christmas, Halloween, or other times to get Pro with a subscription, but it would be costly, like $35 or higher. But don't overprice it, but if you did do that, i would not buy it, but if you put it at a good range, i would happily buy it, but like i did in another game, i bought it for about $50. It was worth it, and i really like that game.Those are some ideas you can do, but you don't have to use them.
