While I'm here, one small additional feature request:

I'd personally much prefer it if the 'word definition, wiki, etc' pop-up did not come up every time you select text. Two reasons...

The first is that if you are connected (unknowingly) to a bad wifi connection, the app freezes for 15 seconds or longer while it tries to connect to Google and Wiki before it gives up ... and there's no indication that's what's going on. [I thought the app was freezing for no good reason and kept restarting it until I realised it never happened when I had wifi off or was on a known good connection].

Second, I highlight a lot of text in some 'reference' books, and most times the text starts with "A" or "The", so it's a little disruptive to have that panel pop up. However, it's much less so in this new version of the app. Still, I'd like to have the auto-pop-up as an option... I'd personally set it to off, and only click on 'define' [maybe call it 'info'] if I need a definition or more information from wiki and google.

Great app nonetheless
