1913 Version of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary on my iPad?

April 16, 2019 9:12 AM

Based on this article – discussed in this post – I’ve used the iOS app Dictionary Universal to access the 1913 version of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary. It was easy – the app. linked to it in its settings, and I clicked the link and it downloaded the whole dictionary.

And the app *still* appears to link to it. But I got a new iPad recently and the link downloads something else – an abridged version of that dictionary.

Please help me get the real unabridged 1913 version of the Webster’s dictionary back on my iPad.
