iOS 12: How to turn on and use the thesaurus<article>
<section class="page">
<p>Many past iOS releases let you look up definitions with a built-in dictionary with “Look Up,” but with iOS 12, we get access to a built-in thesaurus as well. As a writer, I find this a godsend. My beloved Oxford American Writer’s Thesaurus was one of the casualties of iOS’s transition to 64-bit apps, but now it’s part of the operating system itself.</p><p>Even better, the feature works with most iOS word processing apps. The only catch is that you’ll have to turn it on. Here’s how to do it.</p><h2>How to enable the iOS 12 thesaurus</h2>
<ol>
<li>Open
Settings.</li>
<li>Press
General.</li>
<li>Scroll down to
Dictionary. Press it.</li>
<li>Select “American English: Oxford American Writer’s Thesaurus.”</li>
</ol>
