Learn a new English word every time you glance at your phone. Vocab puts words and example sentences right on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island with a Live Activity — free to start, nothing to open. WHY VOCAB • Learn passively. Every glance at your phone is a chance to remember a new word in context. • Live Activity that sticks. Pin a word and example sentence to the Lock Screen until it's locked in. • Dynamic Island companion on iPhone 14 Pro and later — the target word stays one swipe away. • Choose your pace. A new word every 30 or 60 minutes on the free plan, or as often as every 2 minutes with Premium. LEARN 6 LANGUAGES English, Turkish, French, German, Spanish, and Japanese. Pick your native tongue and the language you're learning, and Vocab handles the rest. 4 LEVELS • Beginner — everyday words that get you started fast • Intermediate — vocabulary that powers real conversations • Advanced — nuanced words for fluency • Proficient — the words that separate good from great BUILT FOR REAL ATTENTION SPANS You don't need an hour a day. You don't need to remember to study. Vocab works in the background while you scroll, message, or wait for the bus. The words just show up. TRACK YOUR LEARNED WORDS Every word the Live Activity shows is saved to your Learned Words list, sorted by language. Open the app, see your progress, and pick up where you left off. PRIVACY-FIRST Words stay on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no shared lists. Your learning is yours. PREMIUM Free plan: a new word every 30 or 60 minutes at Beginner level. Premium: Intermediate, Advanced and Proficient levels and rotation from every 2 minutes. Start with a 3-day free trial, then $3.99/week or $29.99/year. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled.
