- 📦Sanskrit Lexicon: Dictionary updated to version 2.8Search is faster. Type a Sanskrit word or describe one, and your answer comes back sooner, in the app and with Siri.
SMALL IMPROVEMENTS
• The search field grows as you type, so you can read your whole description before you search. Its tip now shows both ways to search.
• A search counts toward your three free searches a day only once the dictionary answers. A search that can't connect costs nothing.
• Opening a word from sanskritlexicon.com no longer uses a free search.
• When a search has a best match, Siri answers with it right away and reads the word's main meanings, not just its first definition. The other words are a tap away under Change Word.
• Swipe a closed search folder, or a closed saved context on a word, to delete it.
• The Word of the Day card switches to the new word at midnight, even while the app is open.
• With Reduce Motion on, removing a result or a definition no longer slides the cards.
NEW IN 2.7, IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
DESCRIBE A WORD
• Type what a word means instead of the word itself, in English or in your own language, such as "the churning of the ocean". Sanskrit Lexicon lists the Sanskrit words that fit and marks the likeliest one BEST MATCH.
• The search field takes a whole sentence, so you can describe a word the way you would to a friend.
• Open a word from a described search, and the definitions that fit your description are waiting at the top of its screen, already open, with the word itself still in view. They stay on the word as a saved context.
YOUR SEARCHES, KEPT
• Every search now stays under Search Results on the search screen, newest first, each in a folder you can open and close. A described search gets a short title of its own.
• Your searches follow you to your other devices with iCloud.
• Swipe a word to remove it from a search, or delete a whole search from the foot of its folder.
• On iPhone, a round button in the corner jumps between Search, Search Results, Word of the Day, Favorites and Recent.
SIRI
• Say "Look up a word in Sanskrit Lexicon", and when Siri asks which word, describe it if you like. The search is kept under Search Results, and a word you open from it arrives with its matching definitions on top.
ALSO
• In a context you saved on a word, swipe a definition to remove it.
• A new context is named for you in the language you wrote it in.… more - 🆕Sanskrit Lexicon: Dictionary first spotted by AppInsider#18 in Top Grossing · Reference · India

Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About Sanskrit Lexicon: Dictionary
The Sanskrit dictionary that understands what you mean.
You don't need to know the exact spelling, or even the Sanskrit word, to find what you're looking for. Type what you remember, describe the meaning in your own language, or enter a word you found in a verse. Sanskrit Lexicon helps you find the right word and understand what it means in context.
SEARCH HOW YOU THINK
- Search in Devanagari or Roman letters. कृष्ण, kṛṣṇa, krishna, and krsna all lead you to the same word. No special keyboard needed.
- Describe what you're looking for, like "the god who removes obstacles" or "the churning of the ocean."
- Search using your own language, whether that's English, French, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, or another language. Results are in English only.
- Enter a grammatical form such as gacchati or rāmeṇa to find the root word.
Sanskrit Lexicon shows the closest matches first and keeps your searches in one place.
FIND THE RIGHT THE MEANING
Sanskrit words often have many meanings. Instead of making you search through dictionary after dictionary, Sanskrit Lexicon brings definitions together and groups them by meaning.
Looking for a word in a particular context? Describe where you encountered it, perhaps in a story, a philosophical text, or Ayurveda. The app brings the most relevant definitions to the top, so you can focus on the meaning that makes sense.
CHOOSE YOUR DEPTH
Start with clear, plain-English explanations, or switch to the original dictionary entries with scholarly notation and references. You can move between the two at any time.
Explore more than 250,000 headwords from 12 Sanskrit dictionaries, including Monier-Williams, Apte, and Macdonell. Choose Devanagari, IAST transliteration, or both for how words appear throughout the app.
EXPLORE SANSKRIT GRAMMAR
See noun declensions and verb conjugations in easy-to-read tables. Explore cases, genders, numbers, and verb forms, or search up a form you found while reading.
MAKE WORDS YOUR OWN
Save favorite words and add personal notes. Your favorites, notes, recent searches, and preferences sync through iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY
Discover a hand-picked Sanskrit Word of the Day in the app or on your widget. Ask Siri to look up a word, use Shortcuts, find saved words with Spotlight, or share a word as a picture card.
MADE FOR YOUR APPLE DEVICES
Read comfortably on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and iPhone Duo, with layouts designed for each screen. Enjoy a painted sky in Light Mode and a starry night in Dark Mode.
FREE TO START
Get 3 dictionary searches every day for free. Searching within a word's meanings, exploring grammar, saving favorites, and using Word of the Day don't count toward that limit. Choose a monthly, yearly, or lifetime Unlimited option for unrestricted searching, with Family Sharing.
