A rare find

One of the only resources I have found like this. I use it for building fantasy languages, and it works wonderfully for that. I have two wish list items though:
1st. It would be awesome if you could create a custom keyboard that you could use to enter in information with. Other custom keyboards I have tried don’t seem to work with this app.
2nd. I’d love it if you could get a full view of the items you have created, with the word, pronunciation, and meaning all visible side by side, and a description visible below them. Having to click into each one to see this information is a bit cumbersome.

Hope the work on this continues!

Good Personal Dictionary

I’ve been looking for an application to help me increase my vocabulary. This application almost does exactly what I need.

My two biggest criticisms; first, while I do not want to ask programmers to work for free, I don’t want to spend thousands of dollars on applications. I will usually pay a one time fee to remove advertisements but as a rule, I no longer subscribe to applications that require annual renewals.

The other thing I find lacking, is the ability to import a dictionary like description of the word, with pronunciation, synonyms, usage examples, etc. But for now, it meets my basic needs.

Simple but efficient.

I’m studying medieval architecture and wanted to create my own glossary of terms.
This app enables me to write my own definitions or import info from elsewhere on the web, including pictures.

Newpedia does exactly what I need it to do.

Great developer support too.

Works really well as easy flash cards for word learning

It would be even more amazing if the hidden meaning function (used if you want to test your knowledge of the word meaning), could be flipped on demand so that the word is blocked and by reading the word meaning you have to test your recall of the word.
A step up from this would be typing the word to test your spelling is correct against the word you saved.
Thanks!

alright app

This app is very useful for organizing dictionaries and stuff, but here is some things the creator can add:

1. Features With Time
I can understand the SNS, sharing on Facebook or Twitter, but what about the younger people? You can make it so if your in the app for like a hour, you unlock a feature, you don't have to do this, but you can if you want.
The SNS is kinda annoying, cause i don't have facebook and twitter, and i have to make an account. I usually don't like doing it.
2. Copy and Paste
Why is Copy blocked? I don't know why would someone block copy, a lot of people use it to save info, what if you wanted to copy information about a word, but you couldn't copy, but it would take you a good time to just copy every single thing you want for your word/item. So at least make the Copy and Paste just a little accessible to use.
3. Subscriptions
I don't really like subscriptions, or most people do, thats what i think. If you can make a limited time feature during a special time such as Christmas, Halloween, or other times to get Pro with a subscription, but it would be costly, like $35 or higher. But don't overprice it, but if you did do that, i would not buy it, but if you put it at a good range, i would happily buy it, but like i did in another game, i bought it for about $50. It was worth it, and i really like that game.
Those are some ideas you can do, but you don't have to use them.
