【實用書籍app】Quick Dictionary|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Like the name suggests, Quick Dictionary aims to provide QUICK results for word meanings. The app’s main motivation is to display the meaning of a word with easy and minimum effort from the user.

While looking up the meaning of a word a user usually has to exit the current document, start an app which provides word meanings and type in the word to find the definition. Statistics show that 90% of the users, who use a dictionary app, struggle with the spelling of the word whose meaning is to be found out. Now, would it be nice if you can skip knowing the accurate spelling of a word to find its meaning? Moreover, isn’t it irritating to switch focus of screens just to know the meaning of a word?

The top grey Notification bar on your Android screen displays all important information about your Android phone that may need your attention. This bar, also called the window-shade because you can pull it down to cover your screen, is the quickest and easiest way to interact with those new and incoming events. The Quick Dictionary app uses this fantastic feature to meet your requirement.

Once you have downloaded and installed the app start the app by clicking on the launcher icon.

Go-to ‘Settings’ and check the ‘Quick Dictionary On’ button. Watch the ‘Quick Dictionary’ icon appear on the Notification bar along with the time, battery state, network state icons, etc.

Now, while reading a document or text message, you’ll often come across a word whose meaning you do not know. Simply select the word by long pressing it and copy it on the clipboard.

Pull down the notification bar (window-shade) and tap on the Quick Dictionary icon. The meaning of the word if fetched from the internet and flashed immediately as a timed pop up which will disappear after a few seconds. Quick Dictionary also has a caching feature where the searched word and its meaning is stored in the local database. Thus to find the meaning of an old word you don’t need an internet connection.

The App also provides a traditional way of looking up a word meaning where you input the word into the text box and click on the search button for results. However, you need to know the spelling of a word accurately.
