  • Was good, but recently started to hang on launches

    Hangs everytime now on every launch, tried resetting caches to no avail, hopefully a fix or workaround comes soon.

    edit: I found out, it's because of enabling the examples dictionary. If I disable that, it no longer hangs.

  • It was nice till last update.

    I using this app for few years and was happy till yesterday when I installed new update with rebuild interface. Very disappointed by this“update”, that made using of app less friendly. Going to look for something more reliably.
  • Simple and but helpful addition to your other Japanese language refs

    Whether you’re studying Japanese or working on technical and medical translations, JEDict Lite helps. The lexicon it contains is appropriate for people with beginner and intermediate levels of Japanese, and is presented with an intuitive interface for ease of use. If you are stuck on a reading for a particular kanji you can use the pallet to write, then search and display the reading and related kanji and words. Also Japanese/English fonts are customizable making copy and paste into other docs useful.

    The lexicon is drawn from the EDICT program at Monash University which has a long history in developing the resources. I have a print library containing many J-E E-J dictionaries, and some of them weigh several kilograms and are 20cm thick. I have the app versions of the same that cost in the hundreds. While larger lexicon of these are necessary for advanced translation, but despite the cost for those the interfaces are clunky. So JEDict lite is the extra handy little app.

    It’s free so give it a go.
