The Shorthand Writing Lab
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Build your own written dictionary, practice saved words using spaced repetition, and train sentence writing with Opura!
Opura is a personal, linguistics-based writing app designed to accelerate your mastery of any writing system. Whether you are learning a shorthand system like Gregg or Teeline, acquiring a character-based language, or creating your own secret code, Opura assists in all aspects of your writing journey—from defining your words to implementing them in full passages!
With Opura, you define words or phrases, draw their own outlines, revise them with spaced repetition, and practice full passages using your saved dictionary.
Features include:
• Define custom shorthand/written outlines for words and phrases
• Revise saved words with spaced repetition-style grading
• Practice generated sentence prompts using your saved dictionary
• Draw with Apple Pencil or touch
• Choose blank, dotted, or lined writing paper
• Save full-length passages and back-learn new vocabulary
• Search and organize your written library
• Choose from clean display themes and customize your interface
• Save or transfer your data locally between devices
Opura is designed to be entirely personal and connected to words you use. If you want to master cooking vocabulary, define and practice words like “cinnamon,” “parsley,” “ounces,” “tablespoons,” and more. For courtroom notes, define terms like “objection,” “testimony,” “evidence,” “witness,” and “verdict.” For school, build outlines for your class vocabulary. With Opura, build a library of words that matter to you all in one place!
