### 2/5 — Ok but no images???

*2026-07-17*

How do you make an app with sailing terms and parts but not have a single image, picture or diagram? It’s like teaching a blind person how to drive. Otherwise it’s great. Just follow your nose

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We agree that sailing terms are much easier to understand with diagrams and images. Visual content is already on our roadmap, and future updates will include labelled illustrations, images, and videos for term details. Thanks for the encouragement and for helping us improve Sailing Terms. Fair winds! ⛵

### 5/5 — Iso

*2026-02-08, version 3.0*

When I try to make my quiz I failed. But truly this app makes my knowledge into another level. I highly recommend everyone.

### 5/5 — WORKS

*2024-07-25*

This app seems to work as promised, time will tell.

### 5/5 — Lots of useful, well defined terms

*2023-10-31*

Didn’t realize that upon opening the app it automatically generates tests to help reinforce the vocab. Very fun little app!

### 2/5 — Could be so much better

*2023-09-14*

Great idea for an app. Sadly the execution presents immediate shortcomings that are quite puzzling. Two examples. The very first entrance in the dictionary has a very bizarre typo (deliberately is spelled 'depberately': scanning typo?). And although MANY nautical terms refer to locations on or around the boat, the app-makers did not see fit to include simple diagrams to illustrate the zones and locations the words refer to. I think we can all agree we're now well beyond the era when multimedia was new and revolutionary. Pictures aren't too much to ask, especially when most of these definitions of obscure boating terms rely on and refer to yet other obscure boating terms in their definitions. A labelled diagram would make everything instantly clear. There aren't even hyperlinks attached to words within definitions, so you can jump to their definitions.  I want to like this app but can't help feeling a bit frustrated and disappointed.  The hyperlink came into use some time in the mid to late 1980's.  This is 2023...

### 5/5 — Rife With Misspellings and missing words and letters.

*2023-07-21*

Rife With Misspellings and missing words and letters. It’s not something I can trust due to the frequency of mistakes.

### 4/5 — Useful for cribbing

*2021-11-13, version 2.5*

Neat app that has lots of sailing terms and useful quizzes - as a sailing novice it’s really helpful

### 5/5 — Öğretici

*2021-01-10, version 2.4*

Uygulamadaki soru cevap kısmı sözlük kısmındaki kelimeleri pekiştirmek için çok faydalı oluyor.

### 1/5 — Only a few questions

*2020-11-14*

Questions are all repeated the app is horrible

### 5/5 — Cok faydali

*2020-11-09, version 2.3*

Cok guzel bir uygulama, umarim daha da gelistirilir ve bilgilemizi surekli tazeleriz.

Sailing Terms Plus arrives in this release: a single payment, not a subscription, that removes ads and unlocks offline access and the practice quiz.
Offline access
Download the terms, definitions and diagrams for your language and keep them on your device. Everything then works with no signal at all — searching, browsing by category, the diagrams and their labelled parts, and the quizzes. Useful on the water, on a plane, or anywhere the phone signal gives up. You can remove the download at any time and get the space back.
Practice quiz
A quiz built from the terms you have answered incorrectly before, so revision goes where it is actually needed rather than over the terms you already know. Questions are generated from the dictionary itself, and the set changes as you improve.
No ads
Plus removes advertising throughout the app.
Restore purchases
If you reinstall, change device, or bought before signing in, you can restore your purchase from the Settings screen at any time.
Also in this release
• You stay signed in when there is no connection, instead of being asked to sign in again at the worst possible moment.
• Downloaded artwork is kept out of iCloud backups, so it does not count against your storage.
