Searching isn't very good, which is bad for a dictionary app. Doesn't include Koine variants.

I bought a smart phone just to have this app. I admire the Greek language and this is the little key of the treasure chest. Thank you so much!

I am unclear what this is supposed to teach. No meanings within it are understandable, vague, and unable to be used in speech due to its uncertainty. I could not even find the word fish ψάρι. Fish is a major part of Greek diet along with vegetables so its a common word.

You are one of the very few projects on the Play Store I have given ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. This is because you are a smart & useful app, and most importantly—Open-Source, with no malware & you don't need any permissions. Cheers_

This is the best ancient Greek dictionary available on the market right now. The only shortcoming I can possibly think of is that it would have been even more amazing if there was also a feature for searching words from English to greek.

I think this is the only Classical greek lexicon on the playstore. really grateful for bringing such a good reference on the gadget. however, I think the morphological information should be added more. to aid novice like me. like we have whitacre on latin. nevertheless, this app is the best around!

Good! It is so good. But i just want to know, if it is the same greek that is used in ancient text of the bible? Since we know that ancient bible text is written in KOINE GREEK.

It would be even better if it had extra information on what the word is (e.g. adv., adj., prep. etc.) for beginners like me. Other than that it's probably the best free greek reference app for android right now.

Is there a way of seeing the words on English too?

I am not sure which form or dialect this is in. It definitely has words correlating back to koine greek but does not have all of koine which is considered ancient, and am not sure what era this form lexicon is in or from.

The only thing I really, really hate about this app is that it wasn't around when I was first learning Greek. Then again, neither was Android, so it's a moot point.

This the best Greek Lexicon app I've seen. The search function is great. It doesn't require accented characters for a successful search.
by Y####:
The only Android app for ancient Greek that I'll be recommending unreservedly to my students. Excellent browsing, search, and bookmarking functions, and no ads or permissions. It's a pity some people have written negative reviews without even bothering to read the NAME of the app, let alone the description. This app does exactly what it says on the tin and it does it admirably.
