JED - Japanese Dictionary

Wed, 26 May 2010 04:10:38 +0000

Dear Users,

Since Google doesn't allow to upload paid apps from where I live, I decided put my android projects on hold and spend my time on better prospects. I would like to thank all of you for your kind support!

If JED is not working for you, please try an alternative:

Aedict
WWWJDIC for Android
Kabuto Japanese Dictionary
Makimono Japanese Dictionary
Japanese plus
Cooori JED

These guys are doing a fantastic job, please support them, so their apps don't end up like this one!

Best Regards,
Attila
