A version fixing recent article display problem is available for download at the following location: http://goldendict.mobi/downloads/android/free/GoldenDict-1.6.8-Android-4.4+-free.apk . It has to be installed manually at the present time. There's normally no need to uninstall the existing app before installing the update, but if the installation fails, the existing app should be uninstalled first. The fastest and most multi-format dictionary app on the market. Fully supports Lingvo, Babylon, StarDict, Lingoes and Dictd dictionary files. Articles shown with full formatting, colors, images and sounds. Lookups are blazing fast. You can now carry all the dictionaries you want together with you on your Android device! Note: the app is a shell and comes with no dictionaries, much like a music player does not come with music. You use the files you already have, or the ones you can get on the internet. Supported formats: * Lingoes .LD2 files * Babylon .BGL files * ABBYY Lingvo .LSD, .DSL, .LSA and .DAT files * StarDict files * Dictd files * Hunspell .AFF/.DIC morphology files Just copy those files on your SD card, in the GoldenDict directory! Features: * All content is shown in full formatting, with images and sounds. We don't compromise on quality. * It's fast. It flies when you have a dozen of dictionaries, and can handle hundreds of dictionaries simultaneously fairly well, too. * The program will understand your typing no matter how you do it - forget about diacritics, case or punctuation! * In-program popup mode is supported. Configure your e-book reader to use "ColorDict 3" as your dictionary interface, and GoldenDict will pop up. * Translating from clipboard is easy - just press and hold "Search" button on your device! Permissions: * WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - to create index files for your dictionaries * WAKE_LOCK - to ensure you phone doesn't sleep while indexing is in progress (it's a one-time operation) * INTERNET, PHONE_STATE - to show ads This is a free, ad-sponsored version. The number of active dictionaries is limited to 5. Buy the paid version for ad-free unlimited dictionaries experience. If you want to test-drive the paid version, you can buy it and and then get a refund within two weeks, no questions asked. See paid version description for more information. SUPPORT: If you have any difficulty or problem, instead of leaving negative review, write an email to [email protected], and we'll sort out everything. Enjoy!

GoldenDict Free APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the GoldenDict Free APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 9dd1159b17a741ff03969f02980238f9.
