## What is Camera Dictionary by Vocabul?

Point your camera at a word. Keep the card.

A novel, a textbook, a menu, a contract — you meet a word you almost know. Open Vocabul's Read tab, aim at the line, tap the word. The AI writes a full dictionary entry while you stay on the page.

READ WITH THE CAMERA

Vocabul brackets the block of text nearest the centre of the frame. One button freezes it, the frozen crop behaves like selectable text, and a tap opens the card editor with the term already filled in. Reading on a screen instead? Select text in any app and share it to Vocabul — same card, no typing.

WHAT EVERY CARD CARRIES

- A clear definition, in plain language
- IPA transcription
- CEFR level (A1–C2), so you know how advanced a word is
- Part of speech and grammar markers
- Usage register — formal, informal, technical, archaic
- Real collocations: the words this word actually travels with
- Example sentences you can borrow in your own writing
- A translation in your own language, one tap behind the definition

Multiple meanings? Each sense gets its own block, so a word with three faces stays one card, not three.

BUILT TO STAY ACCURATE

As you scan or type a term, Vocabul suggests its root dictionary form — so you save "run," not "ran," and get a cleaner card. It also catches near-duplicates already in your library, so your collection stays sharp instead of cluttered.

ORGANIZED THE WAY YOU THINK

Group cards into Sets — a book, a course, a client. Captured words drop into the Set you used last, so scanning never interrupts you. Your most recent work floats to the top, and search runs across everything you've saved.

IN THE LANGUAGE YOU'RE STUDYING

Pick your study language and the whole app speaks it — menus, buttons, every hint. Set your native language separately and each definition can show a translation, one tap away.

WHO IT'S FOR

- Independent readers working through books and articles in another language
- Students preparing for IELTS, DELF, TestDaF, HSK and other exams, who need register and collocations, not just a gloss
- Professionals working in a second language who capture at their desk and read on the move

Calm, private, and free of streak-chasing. Just the words you actually met.
