Learn a word in the moments you already look at your screen. WidgetWord shows a word and its translation in a Home Screen or Lock Screen widget. Open the app when you want the pronunciation, a fuller explanation, and an example. Choose English, Spanish, or Russian as the language you learn. Supported pairs are English–Spanish and English–Russian in either direction. Pick one of six CEFR levels, A1 through C2, and choose how often the widget requests a new word. The system controls the exact widget refresh time, so a change may arrive later than the interval you select. There is no account, no course to complete, and no streak to protect. Every word, level, and widget is free. If WidgetWord helps you, you can leave an optional one-time tip in Settings. Tips do not unlock features. Your language choices and level can follow you to another device through your Apple Account when iCloud is available. The app has no advertising, analytics, or cross-app tracking. See the Privacy Policy for details about iCloud, purchases, the website, and support email. WidgetWord is available on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro. Widget availability and presentation vary by platform.
