Very simple Web browser with (kind of) Thesaurus feature
It is a web browser which allows users to select a word when browsing website and automatically get some information about it, such as synonyms, antonyms, etc. It gets that information from the Big Huge Thesaurus API. Free (and fair) use of this API is limited to 1000 words per day.
App compatible with Android 4.0.3 or more (Ice Cream Sandwich - API 15)
Each time you select an English word on a website, you will instantly get some information about it, which is particularly convenient for non-native English reader who wants to improve their reading skill in this language
If your Android version device is 4.3 or below (Jelly Bean - API 18), you will have to click on the copy
icon after selection to get the information
Browsary also include some basic features
- Retrieve your favorite website from the right menu by click on the menu button (right in the navigation bar) or by swiping right to left from the right border
- Just add some favorite website by click on the star (in the navigation bar)
- By the same way as the bookmark (from the right) you can get your history, just change tab side (bottom)

- You can navigate through different websites with many tabs
- Simple button allows you to easily add and delete tab

- Implicit intent makes Browasry launchable from other apps
- Handle different orientation (horizontal/vertical) and size of screens (here screenshot from Nexus 7 in landscape)
- Code is maybe a bit ugly
(Code refactoring must be done - it was my second android app)
