Awful

Terrible, there’s nothing you can do without paying 2.99 a month. An app like this not having a free option is unbelievable greed. No one is paying for this.

payment required - Useless app

You cannot do anything on this app without paying. It had two or three demo words and then everything else is behind a pay wall. I saw an advert for this app which focused on the widget feature on the lock screen. This is not a free feature. The app requires a £2.99 subscription fee for any functionality, which is an awfully expensive considering that it is just a glorified dictionary and there are much cheaper/free options available.

great for moms

Response from developer

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it :)

Great Idea

Stumbled upon this app through an ad online, thought it was a fantastic idea and started to get into it, thought it could really help me push myself, and learn new things..

Although, after it lead me to believe it was free, a pop-up appeared with the subscription price which I won’t go forward with. Such a shame as it seems a fantastic concept.
