[2013-07-20] A Google User: Great could use some refining Show or speak pronunciations! Feel like my vocab is increasing by the day great app. Also could refine which words are too be shown as sometimes I get totally uninteresting words |
|
[2013-07-09] A Google User: I like it. Pronunciation please. |
|
[2013-06-30] A Google User: terribleIt is terrible It didn't give me a sentence and didn't pronouce it |
|
[2013-06-28] A Google User: Maybe good for ESL students Maybe 25% of the words are real, interesting ones, but most are dumb slang and pop culture terminology. Good layout, but poor content. |
|
[2013-06-19] A Google User: Poor choice of words I bought this to prepare for school but the words are useless. Today's word of the day was "salad dodger"! They can't be serious. I feel dumber using this app. The app works fine but it's lost its purpose for me. |
|
[2013-06-11] A Google User: Not word of the day More like random phrases no one ever uses. This is not the best app to fancy up your vocabulary. |
|
[2013-06-08] A Google User: You had one job As a small size widget the def gets cut off. |
|
[2013-05-28] A Google User: Well Nice app, good idea, looks good but words aren't what I thought they would be |
|
[2013-05-20] A Google User: More phrases than words |
|
[2013-04-23] A Google User: Eh A lot of the words are just phrases, kinda minimal |
|
[2013-04-18] A Google User: Alright Its alright |
|
[2013-04-18] A Google User: Good Pretty decent, would love to see more verbs and adjectives rather than nouns. |
|
[2013-01-20] A Google User: The words suck Most words it picks are obscure and useless |
|
[2013-01-17] A Google User: Its ok Would be better if it would say the word too |
|
[2013-01-12] A Google User: Needs improvement Needs either phonetic spelling or audio of the word(read the description, I'm dumb) . Needs auto update options |
|
[2013-01-03] A Google User: Not bad all round But IMO could do with showing how to pronunciate |
|
[2012-12-12] A Google User: Average Decent app with very good words but the widget didn't work on ny HTC one x |
|
[2012-11-16] A Google User: Stupid Words... The app widget itself works fine, but the words tend to be pretty rediculous. "Photobomb"...? That's my word of the day? I was hoping this would have some useful words, but so far they have all been either cultural slang words, or super specific scientific terms that you could never use. |
|
[2012-10-26] A Google User: thx~~ not bad ;) |
|
[2012-10-07] A Google User: Nexus 7 It does not give you quality words, just nonsense like when would I need to know what a "croggy" is. I need words that are useful. |
|
[2012-10-02] A Google User: Not tablet optimized This would be a great phone app, but it isn't tablet optimized. It is pixelated and all the text is too big. |
|
[2012-08-13] A Google User: Word of the day Stupendous! |
|
[2012-02-05] A Google User: Not that good The widget doesn't change and there isn't a settings menu. |
|
[2012-02-05] Brian: Not that good The widget doesn't change and there isn't a settings menu. |
|
[2011-12-25] A Google User: Not great on tablet Tried this out on my Sony Tablet S. Interface is low-res which is to be expected. However, the drop menu options at top right go off the screen and I can't read them; not cool. Otherwise the rest seems to work OK. I'll stick with the original Word of the Day app for my tablet. |
