The perfect app if you’re learning

Got this app to better understand the architectural lingo at my job and all I can say is this saved me so much time. I am brand new to the profession and it’s literally a completely different language I had to learn. This app is basic interface-wise, but it has everything I needed to find out so far!

Great app can always be better

App is very useful, would like a “further learning” category, I agree, a word of the day would be nice or maybe even a catalog to scroll through, even if it starts out as “common words used today”. What if I don’t know a word but a description and am trying to look one up?

Fantastic, needs some things

This is already a great app, but I think a “word of the day” or lists of various words can add some engagement and discovery.

Need “perusal” option

I have purchased from this company before but using the free version for this one. I dont like how you cant just list all words without havibg to search for something specific. I tried “*” also to see if would pull up a list of all the words but it didnt. I got this others by this company to become familiar with new words and learn interesting things but may not have a specific word in mind. Can u make it so we can see all and or just type the first letter and see what all comes up?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. I will pass it on to our development team. In the meantime, you might be interested in the "Starts with" search option. You can find it by tapping "Simple search" above the search bar and then choosing "Starts with."

Thank you

The graphic and pronunciation of the words are not outstanding.
