About Daily Dictionary

Discover a new word, every day, with Daily Dictionary. Words are selected by human editors. This means words that you can use in everyday conversation, writing and reports. No technical science jargon. With definitions, usage examples and synonyms, gain confidence to use language that you never normally would … as well as some words that are entirely new to you.

Daily Dictionary features daily notifications, home screen widgets and Siri integration. Word of the day your way. Siri Shortcuts lets you ask Siri ‘word of the day’ from anywhere, and display the daily word and definition inline to Siri.

Inside the app, view today’s word and look back to the past few weeks for even more inspiration. Upgrade with a subscription to unlock Bookmarks, custom Apple Watch preferences, and advanced settings. Upgrades directly support the developer and the people who are writing the dictionary, featuring a new word, every day.

All this in a beautiful modern design. One word per day, all year round. This is the Daily Dictionary. Find out more at dailydictionary.com
