Why I built a dictionary app

Congratulations! Cool app and nice writeup.

Related: what do people use for bilingual (translation) dictionaries (i.e. X-English or English-X)? Most of the apps I have found for the languages I use are full of ads and not very usable. (Translation apps like Google Translate are much better and more usable, but there are some use-cases where a dictionary really is better).

QuickDic (from F-Droid, with offline dictionaries) works for me.

I use dict.cc. (Both the website and the app.) Works offline.

For European languages (at least French and Spanish), WordReference is pretty good. For everything else, Wiktionary’s a really good resource!
