Learn by
writing.

In Write mode you recall the word and write it out by hand — with Apple Pencil on iPad, with your finger on iPhone.

  • Nothing is checked until you tap Next.
  • Write a missed word again right away, or meet it again at the end of the session.
  • Mix Write with Speak, Type, Choose and Build.

Everything in WordBack

  1. Your own library

    Topics and subtopics, words with pictures, notes and more than one accepted answer.

  2. Six practice modes

    Speak, Type, Choose, Build, Write — or Mixed, which switches word by word.

  3. Mistakes come back

    Answer a missed word again right away or at the end of the session — or keep it coming back until you get it right.

  4. Scan Text

    Photograph a page, tap the words you want, review their translations and add them.

  5. Progress you can read

    First-try accuracy, words learned, sessions and the words you miss most.

  6. Private by design

    No account and no ads. Speak practice never records audio. Sync uses your own iCloud.
