Description
Use one app to look up any Greek or Latin word: Logeion was developed at the University of Chicago to provide simultaneous lookup of entries in many classical dictionaries. In addition, for frequent words, some frequency and collocation information is given plus examples from the corpus at perseus.uchicago.edu.

Ratings and Reviews
Classics to go.
Although it can be a little difficult to navigate at times because of the huge volume of data it contains, Logeion is an excellent resource. It loads quickly (iPhone 8), runs reliably, and has a full database of Latin and Ancient Greek, including the invaluable DMLBS (Mediæval Latin). I still prefer a bound-and-printed dictionary, but Logeion is nevertheless an invaluable resource for classicists, philologists, philosophers, priests, anyone who encounters Latin and Greek with moderate frequency. Even better, it doesn’t need an internet connexion to run!
Good
Great app and the ducange addition adds a great dimension. I used the Perseus website but prefer this app since it doesn't use the internet and loading times are very quick on my 4S
