  • An app that is completely free with no adds that could easily be a payed app

    This app is designed for the betterment of people . The fact you don’t have to pay anything and get a quality product with no ads is rare . Thank you to the developer
  • Recommended 100%!!

    This app is a simple and easy way to learn some new words or review them! It gives excellent examples of the definition of the words and puts it in a fun mindset. If you’re not sure how to pronounce the word it gives you a little speaker to tell you as many times as needed. If you don't know the word there is an option to click the “I don't know” box and it will review so you know for next time. Overall, I think this is the best vocabulary app I've EVER had.

  • Helpful

    Sometimes free apps can be disappointing, but this one has been a surprise. I use this for the convenience of the avoiding flash card hassle. I can pull this out and practice words that I need brushed up on or learn something new. It can be used while being in line or waiting around on anything during a busy day to pass the time. Soon enough, the words used in the app will then be noticed more while reading other material.
    I highly recommend and there’s multiple sections to cover, so it will definitely keep you busy for a while.

  • It’s fun to use but..

    I like the structure of the app but found out that some word definitions don’t make sense and not actual meaning of the word.
    For example, definition for this word “Achieve” is “do something difficult” but I don’t think it’s correct. So little bit disappointed because it’s a learning app and learner wants to learn proper information.

  • Odd definitions

    I am getting words I a familiar with incorrect. It’s a bit weird. There isn’t a consistent degree of relation between the vocabulary and the chosen answer. It would be one thing if these words were placed in a sentence, but to put a word with more than one meaning, and two very reasonable answers is rather discouraging.

    Example:
    Q: Disinterested-bored or unbiased
    A:unbiased

    I would never answer “unbiased” over “bored”. You can be “unbiased” but still interested in the ultimate result. The questions may provide dictionary answers, but lack a more practical understanding.

    Example:
    Q:antic-childish or grotesque
    A:grotesque

    “Grotesque” is listed by merriam webster as an archaic meaning. “Cheerful and whimsical” being a modern one.

    I can only believe these questions were formed by using programs to randomly select related words and random thesaurus terms. I don’t mind learning archaic definitions, but this is hardly ideal. When offering more than one reasonably correct definition for a word you must provide context, such as a sentence. It is an admirable effort, but your app needs more than programmers and a thesaurus.

  • Susanne

    Fantastic app I use this app to increase the definition of words and helps improve my memory .I use daily and complete each stage as I go .learning new words I’ve never heard of 👍
  • Odd app

    The app has some definitions for words that are not in common use which makes it difficult to remember and integrate into your everyday vocabulary. Some of the words you use to match are not quite fitting, making it confusing and unhelpful to those trying to expand their vocabulary. And the app will bring some words you got correct back around 1-2 times in a round, but it is unclear how they chose those words. Some of the most difficult ones I got right I never saw again while I would get very easy ones 4 times in a row. The app needs some polish before I could recommend it to anyone.

  • Essay Wording

    I’m currently enrolled in college classes during my high school year, and the essay standards get higher and higher every year for college classes and even high school classes. This app without a doubt has helped me achieve a new foundation of vocabulary that makes my essays stand out from my classmates. I already went into the app thinking I had an outstanding vocabulary, but when I started the medium/easy vocabulary introduction I was amazed, for I had never seen around seventy percent of the words provided in the application. This application deserves 5 stars, the process in which you learn the vocabulary is the same premises as the quizlet learning program. Very effective.
