Verbatim
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every word you learn in Verbatim comes from a real line in a real book. Pick a classic, Pride and Prejudice, Dracula, Jane Eyre, Sherlock Holmes, and learn the words its author actually used, in the exact sentences they wrote. Flashcards fade because the words float free of anything memorable. A word met inside a line of Dickens stays with you, and Verbatim brings it back for review just before you'd forget it. A LIBRARY OF 630+ CLASSICS Browse gothic horror, detective fiction, romance, science fiction, adventure, philosophy and more: 14 genres and over 440 authors. Every book becomes a vocabulary course built from its own pages. 30,000+ QUOTES, EVERY WORD IN CONTEXT Each word comes with its definition, its pronunciation and the passage it was taken from, so you learn what it means and how great writers actually use it. READ ALONG Tell Verbatim how far along you are in a book, and lessons teach the words just ahead of your page, so you meet each one in the story a few days after learning it. 8 WAYS TO PRACTICE Match meanings, complete the author's original sentence, recall a word from its definition, spell it from letter tiles, train your ear with listening rounds, race through true or false, match pairs, and type words from memory. Choose Gentle, Standard or Scholar difficulty. ONE LINE, FOR BUSY DAYS Thirty seconds, one word, one sentence from a classic. It counts toward your streak, and you can answer it right from the Home Screen widget. REVIEWS THAT ARRIVE ON TIME Spaced repetition schedules every word individually and brings it back at the moment reviews work best. A few minutes a day is enough. YOUR READING LIFE, ADDING UP File books as In progress, Saved or Finished, keep the lines you love in your own commonplace book and export them as a PDF, and build a streak, with rest days earned by reaching your weekly goal.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Verbatim at every 5 days against Readlog's every 4 months. Readlog's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
