User reviews

App of the Year

By far one of the coolest apps I’ve ever gotten on my phone. I may be overshooting, but do you guys plan on “gamifying” Wordshelf via adding achievements and the ability to add friends and see their profile? I would love to have such features added.

Insanely good

It’s the goat really

Just what I was looking for

Exceptionality clean UI that leads to an enjoyable user experience.

It includes all the features I was hoping for and they function well. Quite frankly I can’t believe it’s free.

Almost the perfect app

It has the best layout, not overwhelming or over complicated like other apps, does not shove Ai, adds, or payment plans in your face every time you use it. The app has feedback section in it, which is responded to in a timely manner, with friendly conversation and discussion on improvements. They will even add new words upon request. This app does use AI, or is “Ai-powered” whatever that may mean and I’m not the biggest fame, but I’m not in control of the evolution of Ai old it’s integration into everyday things. Overall with time and feedback from people who use it regularly it will continue to improve if they continue this acceptance of feedback.
