Very good. Worth downloading ... And use. ### 5/5 — Useful *2018-06-06, version 1.0* It is very helpful in memorizing words. ### 5/5 — Good choice *2018-06-06* I do not listen why pronunciation is why but I am satisfied with overall good quality. I used the other flash card application, but I prefer this one. I feel more practical. ### 5/5 — Very nice *2018-06-06, version 1.0* Very good application Ideal to progress even for me which is rather a memory auditory ### 5/5 — Love it *2018-06-06, version 1.0* It is very didactic, it helps to enrich the vocabulary ### 5/5 — Good *2018-06-06* It is very encouraging for those that don't like getting overwhelmed by too much words in a piece of paper. It really raises the bar of vocabulary learning and makes it more effective because it is in a form of a game. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2018-06-06, version 1.0* Has helped me build my vocabulary ! ### 5/5 — Great *2018-06-06, version 1.0* If you are enough interested to learn the meaning of English words then it's probably the best app for you! Just try it ### 5/5 — Excellent *2018-06-06, version 1.0* Excellent app to build your vocabulary ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scammers app *2026-02-21* A few pages was shown correctly and you can choose the right picture out of four and later start showing 2 pictures and asking the words not even from the picture . If you choose wrong then take you directly to commercial. It’s just fake. ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-12-09, version 3.0* I paid for the subscription to unlock the rest of the topics but it turned out to be a rip off. The website and the info regarding the developer or app support specialist is also appear to be non-existent and there is no way you can reach out to them. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-05-18, version 3.0* I downloaded like 3, 4 times and doesn’t work on my IPhone ### 1/5 — Useless app *2019-05-09, version 1.0* This is awful ### 1/5 — Mm *2018-08-03, version 1.0* Mm ### 2/5 — Great app - poor visuals *2022-06-15* The app is great and could potentially be wonderful academically and within speech therapy. The pictures are gorgeous, when you set the app to just show two choices. When you set for 4 choices you can only see the top two images. When you set for 6 or 8 images/choices all of the pictures are shrunk in the vertical plane but not in the horizontal, resulting in very distorted images that are often unrecognizable. App needs some tech support. ### 2/5 — Needs pro narrator, pro educator *2018-12-20* This app shows promise, but suffers from its choice of a non-standard female narrator for pronunciation of the vocabulary items. I tried the first level, fruits, and found at least three words with the accent placed on the “wrong” (nonstandard dialect?) syllable: Pomegranate Grapefruit Pineapple Not as noticable but still disappointing to my ear: the clarity of the first-syllable accent in “lemon” vs that in “cherry.” Is the speaker just bored or what? Of course, some (many?) users (or their parents) will find the pronunciation less of a focus than do I, who can’t recommend this app to students of English as a foreign language, where I think it might have a market if re-recorded. But in that case it would also be advisable to automatically play the pronunciation of the new word on each page and have the spelling display only as an option button, to improve listening comprehension skills. That would be just the opposite of the app’s present design: spelling displayed automatically, pronunciation an option. Finally, for a teaching tool the app is a lazy teacher. It’s more of a post-lesson quiz than an attempt to introduce new vocabulary items in an attention-holding way, even if the picture are superficially attractive. As such, it may appeal more to test-conscious parents than to their kids. ### 4/5 — No more sound! *2021-11-02* This is a very useful app for language learners. What happened to the sound? Sound is half its effectiveness when used in a classroom because it frees instructors to work with others. Bring back the sound, please! ### 5/5 — Voice *2023-03-27, version 3.0* Why it doesn't play the voice? ### 5/5 — A *2022-04-03, version 3.0* Intersting lovely ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Gooooooood *2020-05-01, version 1.0* Nice ### 5/5 — Good apps *2019-04-24, version 1.0* A good apps. Help to improve vocabulary every day ### 5/5 — Appreciation *2019-03-06, version 1.0* The best app ever spicily for kids thank you so much for your help in this issue ### 5/5 — Thanks *2018-09-29, version 1.0* Very useful for my kids ### 5/5 — Excellent learning app *2018-06-06, version 1.0* This is awesome! Great way to learn specific words, very pleased. ### 5/5 — I love it *2018-06-06* Would be the perfect app if it had more easy sentances for words and in some cases better definitions but other than that a good app. Oh and an offline feature would be great. ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2018-06-06, version 1.0* Very helpful for more sentences for any word ### 5/5 — Awesome *2018-06-06, version 1.0* Using this to prepare for grad school admissions test.... I upload every word I come across into the app and it teaches them better than any other method. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
