Seems like every dictionary wants your first born personal data-wise.
What’s a good, non-chatty private dictionary app that I can buy across various platforms/devices?
On Android, I use Quickdic
(available on Fdroid https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.reimardoeffinger.quickdic/ )
which runs offline and has no trackers at all (according to Exodus):

I just use the Collins dictionary which is the best one IMO through Tor. There’s no private (good) dictionary.
You just brought back an old memory. I used to use WordWeb dictionary and apparently it’s still around. According to the app listing it doesn’t collect any data and my memory of it was fully offline anyway. I haven’t verified anything myself but may be worth checking out. AFAIK they have apps on every platform.
Does it have to be an app? I decided against an app because there are good websites like dict.cc with a mobile browser version which does its job very well. Another app less.
