### 5/5 — Love the app!

*2026-07-20, version 9.4.1*

I use the app every day. So easy to set things up and saves so much time typing things you do over and over again. The Folders are a great feature.

### 5/5 — Efficiency

*2026-06-19, version 9.4.0*

### 5/5 — Excellente application

*2026-06-16*

Très rationnelle et fonctionnant impeccablement. Je m’en sers depuis des années en complément indispensable et facile à paramétrer de mon clavier IOS. 
Bravo à toute l’équipe !

### 5/5 — Top of the line

*2026-06-15, version 9.4.0*

Word boy helps with my sales process by having me to be able to reply to messages faster, but I’m having the right things out

### 4/5 — 星1→星4

*2026-06-04*

有料で購入して無制限に単語登録できたのに、いつの間にサブスクにされ、単語登録はサブスクでないと無制限でなくなった。レビューで評価4.9となっているのは当時のもので、それを宣伝に使うのは詐欺たと思う。

追記
デベロッパーより購入の復元を確認するように回答があり、設定のどこに購入の復元があったのかと思ったら、pro版の中の下にあった。それで復元できたが、購入の復元の場所がわかりにくい。設定画面に購入の復元の項目を設けた方が良いと思う。取り敢えず購入の復元ができたので評価は4にします。

**Developer response:** レビューを更新していただき、ありがとうございます。

以前ご購入いただいた内容を無事に復元できたとのことで安心しました。

また、「購入を復元」の場所が分かりづらいというご指摘もありがとうございます。貴重なフィードバックとして受け止め、今後の改善の参考にさせていただきます。

今後ともWordBoardをよろしくお願いいたします。

### 3/5 — Offloads

*2026-05-23, version 9.3.2*

I enjoy the app when it works but three times already it’s offloaded itself and I have to reload all of my prompts. I wish there was a way for it to not do that. Maybe receive a pop-up something, but the app goes dormant too often.

### 5/5 — Great simple shortcut app

*2026-05-17, version 9.3.1*

I use this app everyday its great for all the repetative bs i have to write

### 4/5 — WOAH

*2026-05-15, version 9.3.1*

### 5/5 — Word bard text expander
