About this APK

Offline dictionaries is an app by Nicolas GUILLAUME in the Books & Reference category, listed since at least August 2019. It includes native code for x86 32-bit, x86 64-bit, ARM 32-bit and ARM 64-bit, so it runs on practically every phone.

Since version 3.4.8, the minimum Android version rose from 4.1 to 6.0. It asks for 14 permissions, 2 of them sensitive: read shared storage and modify shared storage. Compared with version 3.4.9, it adds 6 new permissions (“Access adservices ad id”, “Access adservices attribution”, “Access adservices topics” and 3 more) and drops 1 (“Run at startup”). The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

Offline dictionaries allows you to browse dictionaries without a network connection, such as when you're on a plane, traveling abroad, out of cellular tower range or if you want to save battery! Download dictionaries you want to the SD card the first time you launch the app and then perform simple or advance searches (with wild-cards), which come in handy when you're working on a crossword puzzle. Definitions can also be read by the device using a text to speech module (some devices don't support this and some languages may not be available) and the application can be used with ebook readers. There are more than 50 multi-lingual dictionaries to choose from, including English, French, German, Spanish, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Hebrew, Russian, Italian, Chinese, Portuguese, Dutch, Czech as well as synonyms and anagrams databases. Dictionaries are added and improved regularly (ask us if you want a particular one). It is possible to contribute to dictionaries and to add personal notes. Synchronize your notes with all your devices by connecting your Google account. This version is ad supported but you may want to try the pro version which has no ads.
