User reviews

Great app!!

The app is great, I find it super useful. My one (and only!) qualm is that it checks what keyboard you’re using and forces you to use the keyboard of the language you’re searching. Edit: thanks to the developers for being so responsive! It turns out that setting is possible to turn out (although not intuitive 😅). I look forward to using my favorite dictionary app more smoothly now! :D

Response from developer

You can disable this in “Settings - Apps - motî - Auto-select keyboard language”

Love it! Would like more asian languages

Love this app. Use it every day! Would love if you had some more asian languages. Any plans for Japanese and Mandarin?

Wonderful

No nagware, subscription or ads, Motî is an amazing app, clearly a labour of love. Well designed, simple to use and so flexible, I use Motî daily, it is almost too good to be true. I really applaud the developer for their diligent and hard work! I hope Motî continue as it has been for ever, it’s a real gem.
Diolch yn fawr iawn! (Thank you very much!)

Marvellous app!

Thing I miss is a share sheet widget to be able to select a word in other app and find it in this app, like yandex translate allows you to do. Share word(s) to moti.
Was looking for better wiktionary integration but found this.

Search function

Please improve on the search function within this app, it functions well however the problem is it gives the wrong suggestions, for example once I search up “yellow” in English it will show “lâche” (which means cowardly or loose) instead of “jaune” first
