New in 5.4: a sticker-style design, Memo the boxer, one definition card per part of speech, and FSRS-scheduled reviews that only ask you when a word is due.
Flashcard Dictionary is an English dictionary that helps you remember the words you look up.
Look up a word, read a clear definition written for learners, and hear a native speaker say it. Tap the star to save it and it goes into your Saved Words. From then on Flashcard Dictionary schedules reviews for you: words you know well come back after a long time, words you keep missing come back soon. Flip the card, think, and say whether you remembered.
FEATURES
• Lookups: definitions from Wiktionary, written for learners of English, with pronunciations recorded by native speakers on Wikimedia Commons.
• Saved Words: every saved word is colour-coded by familiarity, from To learn to Learning to Memorized.
• Flashcards: the word on the front, the definition and an example on the back. One question per card: do you remember it?
• Spaced review: intervals come from the open-source FSRS algorithm, the same family of scheduler Anki uses. Only words that are due are offered, up to 12 cards per session.
• Home: see how many words are due today, how many sit at each familiarity level, and when the next review is.
• Recent lookups stay on Home so you can go back to them.
• English and 简体中文 interface, switchable in Settings › App language. In 中文, English words also show their Chinese meanings.
• Korean: look up and review Korean words too (Settings › Learning language).
PREMIUM
The free version lets you save 10 words and use every review feature. Premium removes the limit. Premium is an auto-renewable subscription billed monthly or yearly through your Apple Account; cancel anytime in Settings › your name › Subscriptions, at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
PRIVACY
No account and no data collection. Your lookups, saved words and progress stay on your phone.

I love the app, but now when I try to look up new words I just get a spinning wheel. I am on iOS 17.4.1.
Developer Response
Hi! The pronunciation should work if your phone is not on silent mode. Was your phone on silent mode? I will definitely look into the bug you encountered and make improvement. Thank you so much for your support!
This can be a great app

This can be a great app if you fix the voice pronunciation. Also a useful feature would be the ability to play the word lists to review them! I like the app and I am looking forward for improvement.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for your feedback! Your phone was probably on silent mode. The latest update of the app enables pronunciation on silent mode :)
Super helpful for my GRE prep!
