wordwidget vs LexWidget

"The limits of my language mean the limits of my world." — Wittgenstein, Tractatus (1922) wordwidget is a free daily word app. An easy way to gain exposure to words you might not have interacted with otherwise. Words display with their definition, and each word is paired with a quotation pulled from a work of classic literature. Designed to be light-touch. Over time the good words become yours. Sometimes without you even realizing.

LexWidget puts the words you want to learn on your Home Screen, Lock Screen and Apple Watch, and grows your vocabulary while you go about your day. Add your words. A smart rotation brings them back across your widgets until they stick. No feeds, no streaks, no account. Just your words.
