One thing I miss (that eSw does) is Webster dictionary and concordance and strongs' searches. Minor

@Noitarud can you explain a bit more specifically how or what you want to search?

Another point worth considering while doing this:
You can download alternate keyboards in android, such as AnySoftKeyboard and allows you to type foreign words, please ensure this kind of input is accepted also.
Βιβλιος (book; apparently G0976 is not in the dictionary though.
ראשית (beginning)
(Complaint follows) By the way, the way computers handle leftward and rightward writing is a big annoyance, the easy solution is to read upside down (which I can do for English) then the direction becomes the same.

I think i was a little rude without a direct response to @timbze s question.
Esword has a number of dictionaries:
• KJC has an index of strongs numbers, each has a page which lists the english words the foreign word appears as. I can search and obtain the number of words translated to a specific word.
• Strongs. I can search to obtain a list of entries that mention a specific strongs reference.
• Websters. I rarely but can look for things this way.
