Awesome App!

I just downloaded the app, all the content is available (some you have to unlock over time) but it’s all free and a great way to review Vocabulary, highly recommended!

Would have been a great review BUT...

The app is great in theory, but they charged me twice to unlock the pro features and have not responded to several attempts to get them to address the issue. They need a phone number with a real person who can help troubleshoot issues when they occur.

A helpful system for learning

I found very helpful that you can rate how good you know the word on 5 point scale.

Awesome app

Just loved it.
Mr GastonMr Gaston

Great variety

The app is well suited for anyone looking to improve their vocabulary. I enjoy the rating scale but wish there was a better way (more objective) to quantify your progress rather than how well I feel I know the word. Overall though, this is a great app.
