App does not work any longer!

kraaft on

Do not buy!

Don’t buy

Squiser on

Do not buy this app! It has been released 6 years ago and never been updated since! Apps like this should not even be in the app store! It doesn’t work, you can not save any desired word, not word dowloading and not worth paying for!!! Seriously this is basically a scam!

Très pédagogique

Al+Matt on

Je suis très impressionné par le dispositif d’apprentissage: une touche d’humour dans la présentation de chaque mot, un usage très à propos de l’étymologie, une présentation très lisible des multiplies sens et la fourniture d’exemples d’usage récents. Seul bémol: la navigabilité de l’app. Elle refuse parfois d’enregistrer de nouveaux mots et l’usage des listes est nettement moins aisée que sur le site web de Vocabulary. Mais tout de même : bravo !

App vs. page

myggle on

Undoubtedly a nice app but compared with the page the app is missing so many features such as spelling bee.

Please update!

oOrwell on

Awesome app but please release an updated version soon... (:

Get it

L@ST F!RST on

Really great app. Fantastic, ergonomic concept! A must have for any logomaniac. Would request a slight condensation of the interface (yes/no selection prompts font is too large). Otherwise, a very sexy app indeed.
