2024-12-03 | Eric_R | It'd be absolutely great if you add the option to zoom words in the study mode. When repeating words with Chinese characters, it's a little uncomfortable to distinguish character details sometimes because I have to keep the screen too close to face. Thanks in advance! | |
2024-12-01 | Andrey | I like this app, I have been using my dictionary for 5 years. The app has different useful examples and different types of exercises. The biggest difficulty for me when I use the app is that I can't put the list of words (line by line), I have to paste each word into my dictionary app (it takes a lot of time, sometimes it takes 30-60 minutes). I am keen on studing english and I dramatically like the App. | |
2024-10-08 | Milo Henderson (goodluck milo) | Easy to use, I like how you can have more than one language you're building. It's an excellent catalog for what words you're learning. I wish it had an option to add more than one example per word. | |
2024-08-22 | Ex Ell | Truly amazing. Many options to learn without all the fuss and annoyance of your usual learning apps. Add words and practice them any way you like. Progress at your own pace instead of being held back by apps designed to keep you hooked without teaching you much. | |
2023-08-28 | Andrey Kishkin | Actually a good app for learning words, but notifications are not working, so you cannot schedule repeationg. Hope, it will be fixed in recent version. Update: Rechecked notifications settings on my Galaxy S21 and wife's Galaxy S22 Ultra, notifications for this app are permanently disabled and cannot be re-enabled for some reason Update 2: after some update alert is back, thanks! | |
2023-07-29 | Katia Vo | It gives you possibility to have your own dictionary and to make exercises to memorize new words. Also I use it instead of online dictionary and then I safe words that I like to remember and skip the words that I decide to not include in my dictionary. I use it for two foreign languages in the same time. I highly recommend it. | |
2022-10-31 | Petr Eremeikin | Very functional and powerful application to learn new words. Ad banners are present in free version, but do not pop-up too often or annoy. Nice statistics feature to keep yourself involved. Really flexible mechanics to focus on what you really want to learn and in the way you are comfortable to do: main and additional translations, multiple study and training modes. One thing I am missing is web interface. It would be great to be able to enter new words from desktop. | |
2022-01-26 | A Google user | Excellent app. Helped in honing my interpreter skills and enhancing active vocabulary a great deal. Lately I couldn't access the .xls export files though, 'cause their location's changed. Now they can be found within the android system folder, however can't be copied or moved from out there. Is it some new feature? Can I set the path myself? If not, will it be fixed? | |
2021-12-19 | Denis Volkov | That's the great app. I like it. A couple improvements would be appreciated: the substantives should be shown with the articles or there schould be a specific field where the articles could be written in. And the second desire: a couple fields where verbs' forms (past simple, perfect etc.) can be specified. Thank you for your efforts! | |
2021-06-20 | Akshai ambro | Ok I like your app very much, very handy, comfortable, and deserves 5 stars. but, I would recommend an important strategic improvement for your application. And this is a request. Please add a provision to go directly towards the word that is shown in the notification, rather than dictionary , it is inconvenient to search. Your app periodically notifying words is one of your best positives. Also allow the notification show the meaning of the translation completely. I hope you will do the best. |
