  • Purely an ATM machine for developer

    By ClareOh
    This app costs $50 for a single word per day. How can this possibly take 15 minutes a day as suggested by the app’s query? It can’t -that is, unless you buy one or many sets of 15 flash cards each (i.e., 15-words total) @$10 per set. Many 15-word sets on various subjects offered for purchase. -Wait- $10 for 15 words that I may already know? -No quizzes? Just 15 words per $10 pop?! Who would be this stupid? Me. I paid for one, & though nicely illustrated, I could EASILY rack up $$$ every day! This app is nothing more than unconscionable greed! There are FAR BETTER & FREE vocabulary apps. “Vocab G” is free & you can learn as much as you want, when you want.

    App is not working. Doesn’t give me a new word.
  • Missed words won’t unlock

    The last few months I’ve found that the option to watch an ad to unlock a word I’ve missed doesn’t respond. I’ve tried twice to reach tech support and haven’t received a response.
  • Ai generated art?

    By 🌾Cornfield🌾
    Hi, I’m reviewing because I am disappointed that WOTD would include Ai generated art. Specifically for the word, “equanimity”. The picture of the mom and her son having a picnic is clearly ai generated. The hands look off, and the benches, picnic basket, and people in the background look off, and the art style is common in ai generated art. This is the first one that I’ve noticed but I hope you guys don’t have anymore fake art! I’d love to see some real art created by real people for the Word of the Day!
  • Can’t save words from today’s tab

    By ThyVastAbyss
    I remember you could click dictionary from the todays tab and at the bottom it would say “ add to “ which made much easier to save words to your collections, now you have to manually search a word you like to add it to your playlist, not sure why take that awesome feature off to make it more of a hassle to save your words, love the app but that’s the only complain I have and hope it could get fixed, which is why I gave it 4 stars if it’s fixed it’s definetly 5 stars
  • Boring

    Pretty pictures but no word history or insights. Good for students.
  • No more ad watching option?

    By NewbieCal
    I am a daily user (free version) but since the last update I can’t watch an ad to see a word I missed when I forget. What’s the point of having that button if it’s no longer an option?
  • Too many pop ups

    I love the app, but I’m about to delete it with a quickness! Why, you ask?!?!?!? Because EVERYDAY when I look at the word, I have to X out of some stupid pop up!! I’m sick of it! PLUS - WHAT HAPOENED TO BEING ABLE TO WATCH AN AS IF I MISS A DAY?!?!?!?! That function conveniently doesn’t work - BUT BUYING YOUR PREMIUM SURE DOES!! App is about to go today! It’s been real, but I’ll buy myself a dictionary AND thesaurus just for spite!!!

    i truly enjoy testing my knowledge with new words. I try to use each daily word several times on that day.
  • Expand my vocab, 1 word a day

    By Koozman88
    They have fixed the bugs that kept happening. Very good tech support, responsive. More than just a word a day, they have cross words, stories with new words, fun pics to help remember the words. Daily reminders if needed. I have been a premium member for several years now and will continue using the app.
