How To Find the meaning of any word with two taps on your Phones

If you use an iOS device you can find the definition of any word within any browser app with just two taps. Simply press and hold the word, then tap Define to see its definition in a small pop-up dictionary. You can even tap ‘Search web’ to run a Google search for it. Android lacks this feature by default, but you can add a similar one by downloading the free dictionary app Power Reading: Word Snitch from  bit.ly/1GdRt1e. Once you’ve done that, open it and tap the green ‘Usage Method I’ button to turn it on

Now, whenever you want to find the meaning of a word, simply tap and hold it, then tap the copy icon (two overlapping documents) at the top right of your browser. The text will be copied to your device’s clipboard and its definition will appear on your screen as a pop-up (see screenshot below). You can also tap the grey globe icon at the top right to search for that word online.
