Have not tried it yet but had been looking for a dictionary for a while. Other apps available too but I though this was worth a separate mention

    Dupe? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/169677

    • nghori on 14/11/2014 - 12:28

      Possibly.. I did see that one when it was posted but missed the oxford dictionary at that time.

    • Moderatormoocher on 14/11/2014 - 16:09

      Since the original post has multiple items, this satisfies our duplicate exception

      • buzzlight9 on 14/11/2014 - 16:35

        fair enough…, but what if the original poster had targeted multiple specific items, and someone just reposts one of them, does it become a dupe ? bcoz the original post is a pack/set of apps which were clearly listed…

        • Moderatormoocher on 14/11/2014 - 17:17

          If the second post is also a list, then it's still a dupe of the first post.

  • Cheeper on 14/11/2014 - 12:36

    Yep… worth a separate mention imo. Works well :-)

  • chrism238 on 14/11/2014 - 12:49

    Interestingly, for sale on Amazon's AU site, but not their US one.

      Wait until late tonight…….

    Is this the full version? The definitions seem to be very brief.

    anyone really use dictionary these days? I pretty much google everything now..

    • JigBew on 14/11/2014 - 15:40

      You mean.. You use a digital tool to look something up? Someone should make an app for that!

    • Cheeper on 14/11/2014 - 16:21

      I use it for crosswords.

    I got the Oxford Advanced Learner's dictionary from the previous Amazon app store sale. It was the full version. It was much better than the free dictionaries. I guess you can always go to the website, but this is more convenient, doesn't require an internet connection, good for cheating when the exam room has bad mobile signal.

    • edgar28 on 14/11/2014 - 16:37

      this does not require internet to search, download the database if u prefer to use offline

  • brayma09 on 14/11/2014 - 18:57

    It's exactly what I need. Nice find, thank you.
