The American Heritage&reg; Dictionary for iPhone stands out among the Big Three dictionaries. With its extensive content and features, it receives a strong recommendation from MacWorld, earning a rating of 4 mice.

Featuring a staggering 2,074 pages and weighing 7.5 pounds, this dictionary is a comprehensive linguistic resource that boasts nearly 300,000 terms. It even includes 64 thousand recorded sound files by native speakers, allowing users to access all this valuable information instantly at their fingertips.

One of the highlights of this mobile dictionary is the impressive collection of more than 33,000 written examples, totaling a staggering 4,222,000 words.
