Nifty app, saves some scrolling
Nice little app, designed simply to save you some scrolling on mobile when you’re using Wiktionary.
Pros:
- Easy to select a language for your search (so if you’re mainly working with French, your searches will jump straight to that part on the page)
- Offers both an exact match query and a general search of Wiktionary
- Real-time display of what your search query looks like in “technical” format
Cons:
- Navigation is a little unusual. There’s no “back” arrows in the top left like I would expect. Instead, there’s an icon menu at the bottom (so make sure your mobile keyboard isn’t hiding it if you want to move back into the search portion).
- Took me a few tries to figure out what the search options are. Fortunately, the developer gives you a preview of your search query, so you can figure it out from there
Overall, if you use Wiktionary a lot and are tired of scrolling to find the correct entry for your preferred language, this is a nice app that gets the job done at a minimal price.
