Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Featured by Apple's editorial team.
You're reading a book in English and hit a word you've never seen before. Or a menu in Barcelona. A sign in Berlin. A contract in a language you're still figuring out. You need the answer now — not a lesson plan.
Piksi is the camera dictionary that gives you instant, contextual definitions for any word you see in the real world.
POINT. TAP. UNDERSTAND.
Open Piksi, point your camera at any text, and tap the word you need. In under a second, you get:
• A clear, contextual definition — not a generic dictionary dump, but an AI-powered explanation that accounts for the exact sentence the word appears in
• Pronunciation with audio playback
• Etymology and word origin
• Translations across your languages
This is what a dictionary should feel like in 2026.
WORKS ACROSS LANGUAGES
Point your camera at text in any supported language and get definitions in your own. Reading a French novel? A German contract? A menu in Italian? Piksi explains every word to you in the language you think in.
Supported languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, Turkish, Arabic, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese.
YOUR PERSONAL VOCABULARY
Every word you look up can be saved to your vocabulary with one tap. Piksi organizes your words and tracks your progress so nothing slips through the cracks.
• Spaced repetition reviews timed to how your memory actually works
• XP, streaks, and levels to keep you coming back
• Watch your vocabulary grow over time with detailed stats
WORKS ON EVERYTHING
Books, textbooks, restaurant menus, street signs, newspaper articles, legal documents, handwritten notes, product labels, museum plaques — if it has text, Piksi can read it.
NO ADS. NO CLUTTER.
Just a fast, focused dictionary in your pocket. No banners, no pop-ups, no distractions — open the app and get straight to the word you need.
