### 5/5 — Great flashcard app

*2026-03-18*

I really like the design of this app. The audio feature is nice, it’s like $8 a year and you can import your own anki sets, which is way cheaper than the anki app itself for iOS.

### 5/5 — Spaced rep is so helpful!!!!

*2026-03-10, version 4.2.9*

This is like anki for mobile, but unlike mobile it is free and comes preset with French decks

### 5/5 — So Intuitive

*2026-02-27*

I really wasn’t expecting much from this little app. I just wanted some flash cards for studying French. But I must say this program is really well thought out. The vocabulary categories section is totally flexible. I can add words to any category (for example, I added a few new animals to the pre-existing animal category). It also allowed me to create entirely new categories and to download a long list of words. For example, I am currently studying -er verbs, so I made a category and imported about 130 -er verbs. And I keep finding more and more cool features to the app. I’ve just started using hands-free mode which is great in the car. I have been using the app for about two weeks now and have a vocabulary of about 300 words (from nearly 0). To the developers of this app, well done!! Merci!

### 5/5 — Spaced Repetition with Built-in Vocab Sets

*2026-02-19*

Choose pre-created vocab sets such as 100 top words, animals, etc… Each word has a picture and example sentences with translations and audio. You can also add your own words if you like. Review by spelling, multiple choice or flipping the flash card to check your answer. Use notifications to prompt you to practice new words throughout the day and the built in spaced repetition algorithm will help you practice new words more while also keeping old words fresh.

### 5/5 — Отличные приложения

*2026-02-15*

Начинал ещё с немецкого, теперь пересел на французский — доволен

### 5/5 — Like it so much

*2026-02-13, version 4.2.9*

Best flashcard app

### 5/5 — Great although annoying ads

*2026-01-29*

Really great features although it is really annoying to have to deal with so many ads in the free version

### 5/5 — Best app for real

*2026-01-09*

As simple as possible, yet extremely effective. Learned all my languages and prepared for all my exams with this app. Consistency is key, and this app actually makes it SO convenient and easy to be consistent with my studies.

### 5/5 — Мне нравится

*2026-01-05*

Прикольно круто 
Был бы круто картинки добавлять к словам возможно 
Возможно и не надо, не знаю

### 5/5 — реально учишь слова

*2025-12-05*

удобное приложение, понятное, возможно, не помешало бы чуть больше категорий, но итак отлично) чего действительно хочется, так это распределения слов по уровню, было бы полезно!

### 5/5 — Simple and Effective!

*2025-11-08, version 4.2.8*

It does what it is supposed to do. And that’s a compliment. A lot of apps are slow or full of ads but this one feels like it was made by someone that really used it and was concerned with quality and delivery.

### 5/5 — Нравится

*2025-10-18*

Пользуюсь несколько неделю, сразу купила платную версию французского языка. Удобно. Можно выбрать количество новых слов, которые хочешь учить ежедневно. И на повторение выдаются старые слова. 
Мне было важно что можно убрать картинки, чтобы вспоминать по значению а не по картинке) 
Лаконично просто и эффективно

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2025-09-21, version 4.2.7*

I’ve been studying French for 980 days but I’ve had a stroke and my retention of words is fleeting, my memory defective, so I needed a way to encounter words often enough to remember them.  This seems an ideal way to do that.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-09-19, version 4.2.7*

For flash card review it is really good. You can import your own flash cards and others decks.

### 5/5 — Очень нравится приложение

*2025-09-05*

очень нравится приложение, после периода бесплатного режима приобрела платную версию, удобно что есть наборы, но можно составлять свои и учить только их

### 4/5 — Excellent algorithms, but needs to sync across devices

*2025-08-28*

This is a superb app for increasing French vocabulary. It has the best flashcard system I’ve ever encountered. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because if you want to use the app on more than one device without losing your data, you have to manually sync your data to the cloud after each session and then manually restore the data to your second device before continuing on that device. I use the app on my iPhone during the day and my iPad in the evening, and more than once I have accidentally failed to sync and lost progress data. Correct this one issue, and the app would be absolutely perfect.

### 5/5 — just what i was looking for

*2025-08-06, version 4.2.5*

I wanted an app to help me learn vocab, this is a simple but amazing app. Completely worth the subscription, flawless so far.

### 1/5 — Приложение

*2026-03-13*

Произвела оплату на три месяца, захожу в приложение, аккаунт вылетел и не заходит в мой никаким образом. Очень нравилось приложение, больше не буду продлевать подписку, это отвратительно.

### 1/5 — Speaking is way too fast

*2024-09-29, version 3.26*

Where do I cancel

### 1/5 — ЗА ДУРОВА

*2024-09-01*

ТУДА ФРАНЦУЗОВ ЗА ДУРОВА

### 1/5 — GDE PAPA?

*2024-08-31*

ЗА ДУРОВА

### 1/5 — ГДЕ ПАПА?

*2024-08-29*

ЗА ДУРОВА

### 1/5 — iOS update 17.3 removed picture field

*2024-02-09, version 3.22*

This app was best I could find to learn French vocabulary using spaced repetition. Made hundreds of my own cards, and it became virtually useless when I updated to iOS 17.3. There are no longer any pictures associated with my existing cards, and the picture field has disappeared when creating new cards. Please fix, unless this is part of their plan to make me pay for premium. ☹️

### 2/5 — Синхронизация и картинки

*2025-09-29*

У меня айфон и айпад. Несмотря на использование одного и того же аккаунта прогресс и слова для запоминания на каждом устройстве свои.
Картинки в большинстве случаев не подходят по смыслу к словам.

### 2/5 — Wants $ fee and inaccurate

*2022-02-13, version 3.5.9*

Asks you to commit to sign up with a monthly or yearly fee.  You can skip if you look carefully but then ads show up every few words.  Also some words were inaccurate.  I found 2 mistakes in first 30 words. 

I do not like renewable fee type apps.  One time fee I can do but prefer to test app first to ensure it is worth it.

### 3/5 — Отзыв

*2025-09-06*

Я так и не поняла на каком основании слова оказываются выученными. Мне не понравилось. Хотя задумка хорошая.

### 3/5 — Французский

*2025-05-21*

Слова даются без артиклей. Для французского это бесполезная трата времени

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Simple, almost perfect

*2026-08-14*

Language flash cards with audio and pictures, and no unnecessary extra fluff. The only thing it could improve on is to have more vocabulary after the 3000 most frequently used words. Maybe it could have the top 5000 words, and/or specific topic-based word sets, ie biology, ecology, history, politics, etc; or tense-based verb usage sets.

### 5/5 — Мне нравится

*2026-07-17*

С этим приложением удобно учить слова. Можно добавлять свои.

### 5/5 — Приложение хорошее

*2026-06-15*

Очень понравилось, что приложение не полностью платное и даже в бесплатной версии есть неплохой функционал

### 5/5 — Reword kinda rocks

*2026-05-31*

I really like reword, no need to set up anything. Just choose the category of words you want to learn. 8 bucks per year, you can upload anki decks if you want, you can add your own words. I already learned Spanish using reword and it’s not perfect but it’s great for building vocabulary

### 5/5 — Stability, reality

*2026-04-24, version 4.2.9*

High-fully fidelity

### 5/5 — Самое нужное приложение

*2026-04-22*

По моему мнению, самое необходимое приложение для изучение языка. Удобно, нативно и понятно! Купила полную версию и ни разу не пожалела. Вложения окуплены сполна! Буду ждать новых проектов по изучению языков от разработчиков!

### 5/5 — Focused vocabulary learning

*2026-04-22, version 4.2.9*

I love this app because it provides an easy to use goal driven vocabulary learning tool.  It has categories which allow me to break down my learning into focused topics.  Really useful.

### 5/5 — Качайте)

*2026-04-16, version 4.2.9*

Шикарное приложение. Довольно простое, но со всеми нужными функциями. Разработчику респект

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-03, version 4.2.9*

Love the fact you can invert the swipes.

### 5/5 — Great vocabulary app

*2026-03-23, version 4.2.9*

Easy to use, clear, efficient. Great app for learning vocabulary.
