DictionaryVersion: 4.0 (iPhone OS 3.0 Tested)

*** Now 60% Off! ***

Note: Dictionary carries a 17+ rating because Dictionary provides uncensored access to Wikipedia. Apple insists that Wikipedia "includes frequent mature or suggestive themes" and thus requires the 17+ rating.

Dictionary is an intuitive, consistent, talking, hyperlinked and integrated English illustrated dictionary and thesaurus, spell checker, vocabulary builder and wikipedia browser. Dictionary's intelligent word suggestion and search feature eliminates the need for a cluttered index interface.
Equally useful as a dictionary with intelligent word lookup, as a fast spell checker or as a Wikipedia web browser, Dictionary is fast and easy to use.

Dictionary is iPhone OS 3.0 ready.
