  • Would have been a great review BUT...

    The app is great in theory, but they charged me twice to unlock the pro features and have not responded to several attempts to get them to address the issue. They need a phone number with a real person who can help troubleshoot issues when they occur.
  • A helpful system for learning

    I found very helpful that you can rate how good you know the word on 5 point scale.

    The app is well suited for anyone looking to improve their vocabulary. I enjoy the rating scale but wish there was a better way (more objective) to quantify your progress rather than how well I feel I know the word. Overall though, this is a great app.
  • Fun and Helpful!

    Follows blooms taxonomy as a learning system. My advice is to generate your own sentences after going through each card and lower the deck to 5 to really capture the meanings behind each word.

    Very helpful, would absolutely recommend.
  • Use to be free- not worth current price (9.99)

    This use to be a free app but now you want to charge $10 for a bunch of outdated words? Since updating my phone and reloading the app, I’ve discovered the creators want some serious cash. I’ll deal with ads of other flash cards or pay less money—uninstall.

    I’ve tried several GRE vocabulary apps and this one is by far the best. They include the pronunciations of each word and a color coding system that I ❤️. Thank you!
