Love it but…
I am really enjoying it, it just seems very expensive for what it is. How is it that I can pay for a streaming service (nebula, it’s a collection of educational YouTubers exclusive videos) and get a vpn for less than this. 20 dollars just seems like a lot, and I was not expecting to pay at all. But it is really helpful, and has improved my vocabulary tenfold

I’m enjoying the education
Honestly this is my latest favorite app! For days I’ve been not only learning new words for myself but I research the words origin and WOW!! That makes a huge difference in the English language! I’m Native American and it’s crazy how white man changed so many of our words. I like the original language to be honest. It’s beautiful!

Good
It is good. I would recommend this to people. Only prob is that there are too many words and is hard to remember them all. It doesn’t let you pick the difficulty of your words, unless you have premium. There are good definitions that are easy to understand and there are also comprehensive sentences.

At first I thought there was a payment needed
So initially the ads didn’t make it seem like there was a fee until I signed up and it implied there might be one. I left the app alone and come to find out it was free. Maybe it’s just me but, when I press the microphone button so it could say the word aloud, it was audible. Only when I have my AirPods in is when I can’t hear the word and it stops and start before it’s over.

Great tool to improve your vocabulary.
In a world where you need to learn to choose your words wisely, it will be prudent to polish your vocabulary. I began to study a book on how to have good, productive conversation that people would want to hear what you have to say, I came across a section that taught how to polish your conversations by using the right words. The author advice to write words that one is not used to using. So I bagan to look for an app that would help me to learn in a simple practical manner. Since I spend most of the time on the phone communicating through texting I also got used to doing everything in it. Like reading and especially writing. So looking for apps I found this one and it has help me because it works like study cards. I memorize words that are commonly used by many people especially at the job, doing business in conversations except me.
Awesome app.

Response from developer
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and thank you for your kind words, it means a lot!
So Far So Good
So far this app is really good! I love that you can flip through and see all different kinds of words. This app definitely has five stars from me. I really liked that you could choose what kind of vocabulary level you were at so you didn’t get words that were too hard to understand. I also liked that you could allow notifications to send you a new word every day! This app is very good. I recommend it for anyone that is trying to learn new words or want to widen your vocabulary.

Update Notification Layout
After upgrading to iOS 15, I’m having trouble reading the words from notifications. The app name is now in bold letters, which takes away the focus from the actual word. Please update it asap.
Regarding your response:
A lot of social media apps don’t show the app name in notifications. You could also scrap the title “Vocabulary” from your notifications and highlight the actual word.

Could be more advanced.
I like the frequency and consistency of the app and the words it delivers, however, that being said I have been quite the loquacious individual since a young age, and have a significantly more diverse vocabulary than most. But the “Thesaurus” seems to have gone the way of the other “sauruses”, extinct. Diction as well as understanding and ability to communicate the information obtained, seem to be skills that are going away also. So keep it up, just up the content .

Free?
I’m not sure yet if what I’ve been experiencing is free or not. Based on the premium versions description it does appear to have the same features as I currently have access too. However, if the current app Ive been using for the past 2 days is free of charge then I’d say this is a great way to slowly expand your vocabulary

Not enough words
I paid for this app and I’ve been using it for a year. It’s not really worth it. These words are repetitive and not worth it and it lacks of vocabularies as well. For instance, if you missed a notification and you possibly try to type the root of that word, it’s gone forever.
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
