It helped me improve my vocabulary
This app is 6 years old and it’s out dated
Like with Chat they definitely can write a better iOS app. Some of the sounding for flash cards does not work.
Strengthen vocabulary
This app is really good for vocabulary building and review.
Miss information
Some of the vocab words seem to be mislabeled, incorrectly defined, or have multiple meanings that could make more than one answer correct. It would be helpful if there were a “all of the above” option or a way to accept multiple answers as correct. It’s frustrating to get answers incorrectly when the answer selected can also be correct. This can make the experience very obnoxious, and is somewhat misleading.

Limited benefits
This app is a great refresher for native English speakers who want to expand or polish their vocabulary. The interface is simple, engaging, and effective for reinforcing word meanings.
However, I would be cautious about recommending it to people who are learning English as a second language or who lack confidence in their language skills. Throughout the exercises, the app often presents a single word and asks users to select the correct meaning from multiple options. The problem is that many English words have multiple legitimate meanings depending on the context in which they are used.
For example, the word “resolve” can mean to determine or decide, which is the answer accepted by the app, but it can also mean to solve a problem or dispute. Without a sentence or contextual clue, several answer choices may appear equally correct. This can create confusion and potentially reinforce the idea that alternative valid meanings are incorrect.
The app works well as a vocabulary refresher when you already have a solid grasp of English, but learners may benefit more from a platform that teaches words within sentences and real-world contexts rather than relying solely on isolated definitions.

Its really helpful to learn new vocabulary
No updates
This app has a lot of potential but gets no updates. Some words definitions also need revision. Overall with some work it could be a great app.
A very cool app
The design is very simple. The words presented ARE indeed the ones people struggle with. The review practice is cool, too
Laudable learning tool
I’m always looking to improve my vocabulary, even if it’s just to use extremely specific, fancy-sounding words on academic papers. This is an excellent tool; plus, there are no ads (at least that I’ve seen) which is a rarity for any app today, so I felt compelled to give my endorsement. Thank y’all for making this app and keeping it simple!

Good
It’s good but I wish that it gave you actual definitions and not only examples because I REALLY need to improve my vocabulary. So…. 3 stars
Actually Free
This has been helpful for me even starting at high school level, and I have my Masters 😂
Highly recommend!

SIMPLE AND EXTREMELY USEFUL
I’ve downloaded many vocabulary apps over the years as I am an avid reader and word lover. This app is a testament to efficiency! I use it just about every day and have increased my everyday verbal Rolodex noticeably.
Started out okay, but…
Started out okay, but at higher vocabulary levels two issues made the app disappointing (note: referencing both Webster’s and Oxford)
1) A number of their definitions are actually incorrect or inaccurate.
2) A number of words show two correct options but you are forced to only one, and it is often the more obscure one.

Great way to start your day!
I like to test myself every morning. This app is wonderful vocabulary builder! The more words you know the more you’ll grow. Highly recommend and it’s fun.
Helped on my sat
I’m magooshing it
It’s good
I did learn some words that I still use today (downloaded about two or so years ago) from doing it honestly not even that often. I think my main problem is just that it really does force you to just memorize the exact phrase/synonym you need to associate with each word. And often times, the options will be misleading. I just uninstalled because I got a word where “necessary” and “important” were both two different options for its meaning. It’s just too “exact” I guess.
I also feel like there should be options for more examples and also a learning mode where you can just click through the different words with their definitions not in a quiz-like way.
