Start dictionary search on startup

winny · 02-15-2026, 01:02 PM

Anybody managed to configure KOReader to start up with the dictionary search modal opened, ready to search?

I like the KOReader dictionary lookup UX. No matter what platform I'm on, KOReader is ready to answer my queries.

That's easy:

Create a new profile. Check Auto-execute -> on KOReader start.
Edit actions: -> General -> Dictionary lookup.
