Wordhoard is a quiet, offline vocabulary companion — one considered word a day, with no accounts, no ads, and no internet connection required. FEATURED WORD OF THE DAY Open the app to a new word each day, complete with pronunciation, part of speech, definition, and an example sentence. Choose to see 1, 2, 3, or 4 words a day, and set a difficulty level — Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, or Expert — so the words you meet actually match where you are. HOME & LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS Keep today's word in view without opening the app. Widgets are available in multiple sizes, with a refresh button to reveal a new word on demand and (on the larger widget) a button to cycle through the day's full set. BROWSE THE FULL DICTIONARY Search and browse the entire word collection, filter by difficulty level, favorite the words you love, and mark words "known" to retire them from your daily rotation. BUILD YOUR OWN LISTS Group words into custom study lists and review them with a focused, distraction-free flashcard mode — perfect for exam prep or building a personal collection of favorites. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics. Wordhoard works entirely offline and never asks for your data.
