Today Terminology, Greg Pierce’s word app, gets a major update. It’s a complete overhaul, marking the most significant update since its original release in 2010.

Terminology is a powerful and extensible reference tool that goes beyond a standard dictionary. It starts with an offline, WordNet-based dictionary and allows you to seamlessly browse and configure online resources for deeper research.

With support for customizable AI prompts, enhanced note-taking, and multiple-term lists, it’s designed for writers, researchers, and language enthusiasts who want more control over their word exploration. The latest update modernizes the app with SwiftUI and integrates an actively maintained word database.

With this release, Terminology also introduces a Pro tier. Subscribers gain access to features like custom resources, multiple-term lists, and advanced note-taking capabilities.

At launch, there’s a limited-time pricing offer:

• $4.99 per year as a renewable subscription

• $19.99 for a one-time lifetime unlock or Terminology.

Those prices will eventually get increase.
