Verba puts a word on your Lock Screen and Home Screen, with a short meaning, a definition and an example sentence, brings it back just before you'd forget it, and gives you more ways to practise when you have a minute.
FREE, NO TIME LIMIT
• Nearly 2,200 English words from A1 to B2, with definitions and example sentences
• Meanings in your language: Turkish, Spanish, German, French or English. With Turkish meanings, the word also shows how it sounds in Turkish letters: determined (ditörmind)
• Every widget: Lock Screen, Home Screen in three sizes, StandBy and the Recall widget
• Learn tab: flashcards, choose the meaning, find the word, fill in the blank, listen and choose
• The daily review on a spaced schedule, with a streak
• The first 20 entries of every collection
• Up to 10 words of your own
• Progress: words learned, a practice calendar, each level and collection
• An optional daily reminder, made on your phone
• The two-minute level check, and pronunciation for every word
• Two widget styles: Paper and Mono
• No account, no ads, no tracking. Your progress stays on your iPhone and in your own iCloud
A TOPIC A DAY
Words arrive by subject: food one day, the body or travel the next, so they settle together. Today shows the topic.
COLLECTIONS
• Commonly confused words, for Turkish speakers
• Phrasal verbs and idioms
• Everyday phrases: whole sentences to memorise and use
• Academic words, based on the New Academic Word List
• Work and email, travel, doctor and health, living abroad
Put any collection on your widgets, and it rotates like your level does. Spanish, German, French and Turkish have their own collections of phrases, travel, work, health and living abroad.
GAMES
Twelve word games, alone or with friends: word of the day, a bomb you pass around the room before it goes off, duel for two on one phone, spot the typo, falling words, memory cards, word search, letter by letter, mixed-up letters, build the sentence, 60 seconds and word chain. Word of the day is always free. The others give you three free rounds of each a day, and Pro has no limit.
DIALOGUES AND READINGS
Practise real situations: choose your reply in a conversation, read short texts by level, answer questions and listen along. Grammar drills cover articles, prepositions and tenses, with short explanations. Translations are available in every meaning language. Part of each is free, and Pro opens them all.

SPACED REVIEW THAT ADAPTS TO YOU
• Each correct recall doubles the wait before the next review: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, then 32 days
• Words you recall across about a month count as learned and leave your rotation
• A word you miss steps back one stage and returns tomorrow, so one slip doesn't undo a month
• Learned words get an occasional check-in months later
