Title: Delete dictionary?
Post by: wildgrace on 21. April 2017, 13:56:57
I would like to delete a dictionary as I no longer need it. How do I delete it?

I tried looking online and in the forum and could not find an answer.  Thanks.

Achim will certainly be able to answer this question. I did contact him on this.

Hi wildgrace,

Great question! I just double-checked and you are completely right, there is currently no build-in way to completely remove a downloaded dictionary.

What you can do is the following:
1. Go to "Download" -> "Recent"
2. Note the path to the directory (or file) of the dictionary
3. Then long-press on the dictionary you don't need and tap on "Remove from list"

Now you can use any third-party file manager to navigate to the noted path and delete it completely, for example OI File Manager (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.openintents.filemanager) (free and no ads).

Hope that helps,
