Perfect app ever

Superb to learn English

Not bad

Need a way to sort my vocabulary by most recent

Word ranking feature

Very helpful app! I like the way to learn new words through English, helps me understand and remember them more efficiently.

One feature I really liked was that, when you search for a word, its rank on your world map will be shown in the popped-up list. This way I can learn the new words that I know from other sources selectively, only focus on those with high rank.

Unfortunately after my last update, it disappeared :(
It would be really appreciated if you could bring it back!!

Hi

Lag

There is some lag in the app

Great

The best app

Worth it!

I had never spent $200 on an app before but this one is worth it! Hopefully they’ll also improve it to make it even better

I was using this app for over 6 years then one day in the app massage keep coming up about review, I left mine but they don’t like it and Deleted all off my 6 years data with them dis pit I asked them to don’t delete my data.
Even I am not able to given name to this disrespectful act.

Thank you for reaching out. We are deeply concerned by your message, but this is a misunderstanding—this is absolutely not how we operate. We never delete a user's data or account based on a negative review. The loss of your data is likely due to a technical glitch, a sync issue, or accidentally logging into a duplicate/empty account.

Easy to learn

Love this app

Great potentials and poor reality

I love the app as a pro user and have learned via it for more than two years. However, there have been a couple of disappointing changes during my experience. For example, the app no longer shows the usage ranking of each word. They have recently replaced pictures with cheap anime generated by Chinese AI. We cannot pick up a word for second (or later) definitions - e.g. I like to memory " gangway" as the second definition of "The area that connects the shore to the ship, where people get on or off the ship", but the app always pick up it only as the first one os "A passage or pathway to walk along".
I have fragged such thoughts with the developers, which I always receive a template answer: Thank you for the feedback.

Thank you for your two years of support as a Pro user. We hear you, and we assure you this is not a template response. We appreciate your specific feedback regarding: Word rankings: We understand that losing this metric affects your learning flow. AI artwork: We are actively monitoring user reception to the new visual style. Multiple definitions: The ability to select and memorize specific secondary definitions is an excellent feature request that we have passed directly to our product team. Thank you for helping us improve.

Reviwe system not working( pro user)

This app is really disappointing. It only works properly for the first few days, and after that the whole app starts malfunctioning and becomes unreliable. It’s definitely not suitable for long-term or consistent use.

Basically good, but I‘m a little disappointed by the recent update

Love this app, I‘ve been using this over 3 years, but for today I checked that you changed the first image of each words… and unfortunately it‘s not fit on my aesthetic. So hope you guys can add a function like to choose the style of image (probably, realistic / animated, I guess) thanks a lot.

Response from developer

Thanks for the great feedback and for being a loyal user for over three years! We appreciate your suggestion about adding an option to choose between different image styles (like realistic or animated) and will definitely share this with our design team for future updates.

Love it, but long time to load

Everything is just fine, WordUp is my favourite vocabulary app, except one thing: I have to wait for ages while this app is loading

Perfect

This app is incredible

Good

I think , WordUp will help me to improve my English skills.

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you find our visual tools and flashcard system effective for your vocabulary growth.

Missing words

I couldn’t find some words on your application

Response from developer

The English language has hundreds of thousands of words. WordUp's mission is to help you learn the most used words from the real world through authentic examples. WordUp is focused on the most useful words based on how frequently they are globally used. There might be words in dictionaries that are not frequently used. You can Google them easily

My review

One of my best teachers 😆

Response from developer

Thank you so much for taking the time to rate us. It means a lot

Very Useful

I really love this app

Wonderful tool

Just downloaded Word Up and I’m already hooked. The app makes learning new words actually enjoyable instead of feeling like a chore. I’ve picked up several new words in just a short time, and I’m looking forward to expanding my vocabulary even more. Definitely worth checking out if you want to level up your word game!

Zero improvements in such a long time

I have kept my five star rating literally for years, and I’ve been using WordUp since right about its launch, but the app seems to have stagnated, while the competition is crushing it. It seems they don’t listen to user feedback at all. Now I rarely even remember that I have a subscription on this app because I only use the vocabulary app by monkeytaps.

You guys have refused to take advantage of notification badges to send the words in the user’s collection as notifications, which reminds the user of the word. You’ve refused to take advantage of Home Screen and lock screen badges for daily words or word reminders.

With other apps, you’re constantly learning your words both actively and passively, and they keep adding options to gamify the learning experience, and most importantly, they respond to reviews, and you literally get the improvements with new updates. Here, nothing is changing and it’s the same old system of spaced repetition and AI chat, which are amazing, but you can do SOOOOOO MUCH MORE, with the great app you built, but just won’t.

PS. This is still a great app , and I’ll return my five star ratings when you guys start making improvements again.
