4.5 Mice. Terminology is a good-looking app—replete with smart font choices, a pleasant minimalist look, and an eye-friendly color palette. If you want a dictionary on your iOS device, Terminology’s the one to pick.
8/10, About as speedy and straightforward as a dictionary can be. Entries spring open instantly when tapped, and search results update dynamically as you type.
I think I'll skip making the dictionary app. Terminology is too damn good. Everyone who said I should make it: go buy Terminology instead.
Using Terminology is like having that friend’s undivided attention as they help you find just the right word or turn of phrase that you’re looking for.
Terminology is lightning fast, has a great interface about it, and performs duties as a dictionary quite well. I would say it’s a completely safe buy, and...you should at least give it a try if you’re in need of a mobile dictionary.
Terminology is an instant favorite for me on the iPad. It ticks off all the right boxes – a good, clear purpose, great design, and a pleasure to use.
