What’s new
Version 2.0.5 · Updated March 24, 2026
Fixed a crash where large dictionaries (e.g. English) would silently fail to install on device. The app appeared to download successfully but the dictionary remained listed as "downloadable". The fix writes the database file in small chunks instead of all at once, avoiding a memory spike that caused iOS to forcibly close the app mid-write.
App privacy
The developer, Amicale du Personel de l'institut pour Deficients Visuels, reported these privacy practices to Apple.
Data Not Collected
The developer does not collect any data from this app.
