Quiz doesn’t work. No sound.

There’s a lot of problems

Not really good

Yeah I got it. Regret it. Doesn’t work as shown. The words are very easy and

NOT iPhone X Compatible...

Definitions and example sentences cannot be seen on an iPhone X screen. Please fix this.

Age rating 4+?! ?!

I bought for my middle schoolers because I loved the concept and the pics were quirky in the promo...
Played Epic for 5 minutes and we were PG-13. Boobs, middle fingers, sexy pics.
Easier to delete you than explain to my kids why I don’t like so many of the pics...
Disappointed that you felt you needed to be naughty.
And you MUST remove rating!!

The best tool to learn vocab!

I am a long time tutor for SAT, ACT, ISEE and SSAT. This app is a tutor's dream come true! Better than flashcards, vocabulary worksheets and all the other aids I've tried to get students to use over the years, the app puts the PICTURE in their minds, attaches the WORD and its definitions to it – and let's them HEAR the word, too. Kids always have their cellphones and they can easily snatch 5 minutes on the way to school or between classes. 5 minutes twice a day and they are done! The pictures are fun, evocative of the meanings; the definitions are concise and true; the quiz functions very helpful: Visual Vocab is a champion! Now looking forward to upgrade for iOS 11.
