Tap-Dictionary: Get Definition/Pronunciation Of Words In Safari [iOS]

The Define feature in iOS is a pretty decent option if you want to look for meanings of different words on the go. The definitions it offers are quite comprehensive – at times, a bit too comprehensive. Also, it is always nice to have some competition in any field, but presently, there aren’t many apps that integrate their dictionary with Safari, and offer offline use as icing on the cake. Tap-Dictionary might not work offline, but does let you look up any word without having to leave Safari. Not only that, the definitions offered by the app are very precise, and you can listen to the pronunciation from the definition box as well, If you want to look for apps related to the searched word, the app will take you to the App Store, and it is also possible to search Google for results matching the selected word.
