Dear colleagues,
Many of us rely on digital dictionaries, but keeping large collections
organised and up to date can quickly become cumbersome.
To address this, I have developed *Dictionary Updater*, a small free and
libre *iOS* app that helps you keep collections of your digital
dictionaries updated on your iphone. When a new resource is available on
website, it allows you to easily update dictionary on your phone.
*App Store Link*:
https://apps.apple.com/in/app/dictionary-updater/id6759791375
*Why Dictionary Updater?*
• Access to *indic-dict* Dictionary Repository
The app includes a default catalogue of about *280 dictionaries* from the
indic-dict project at https://github.com/indic-dict
• Create *Your Own Dictionary Lists*
Users can create customised lists of dictionaries to track updates only for
the resources they are interested in.
• Simple *Download* and *Update* Workflow
Download dictionaries easily and keep your local collection updated
whenever new versions are released.
• Works with Offline Dictionary Readers
Downloaded dictionaries can be used with compatible dictionary readers such
as *HDICT* (https://apps.apple.com/in/app/hdict/id6759493062) or any other
dictionary reader of your choice.
*Feedback* and *feature requests*:
https://github.com/drdhaval2785/DictionaryUpdater/
Suggestions, feedback, and additional dictionary sources are most welcome.
*Note* - For *Android*, similar facility already existed for long at

With warm regards.
