WordMapDictionary is a visual dictionary-cum-thesaurus. It uses a mindmap like interface to show relationships between words, definitions and other definitions.
What makes this app different:
- It uses a unique mind-map style visual interface
- While normal dictionaries show definitions of words in isolation. This app presents you with a holistic mindmap around the word. It shows meanings, and how those meanings relate to each other. It allows you to go deep, or broad, or sideways, to see things in different angles.
