No Internet connection is required to use WordWeb (unlike audio in dictionary.com). A smaller version without audio is also available - search iTunes for WordWeb.

[If the sound is off on your iPad check the toggle switch on the side (not the volume switch, the other one). On a phone make sure you have your ringer turned on and the volume turned up.]

Use it daily

Despite iOS now having a built-in dictionary, this is still my go-to dictionary. I find it extremely useful especially when the word I’m looking up is not already on the screen (i.e. when I’m reading a book).

Request to developer: Please highlight (or add an option to highlight) the last entered word when the app is closed and opened again, so it gets deleted when we start typing a new word. It would be an extremely rare occurrence to want to modify a previously looked up word, yet I have to delete it manually every time I open the app to look up a word. This is especially an issue on larger phones where the x button to delete word at once is all the way at the top of the screen, which means it cannot easily be reached when you hold the phone with one hand.

Must have

Great dictionary, and great price. What else are you waiting for? Press the button to download it.
