Absolutely love! I used to have other vocab apps on my devices but recently deleted them for this one. I have been using it to learn more french vocabulary throughout my day with the widget feature & it has been the highlight of my days recently. Developer is genuinely invested in listening to suggestions & making this app the best it can be. Cannot recommend this app enough!!

Thank you so much, Lunastrix - this genuinely made my day. I'm so glad the widget found a spot in your day and that Plume won out over the others. Keep the suggestions coming, they make it better. Bonne continuation with your French!

Developer Response
Thank you! I'm so glad you find the app clean and intuitive -that's exactly what I aimed for. Just a heads-up: I'm currently working on adding German and French for the next release with more languages to come. Hope you'll enjoy it!

Great for increasing one’s prowess in the realm of vocabulary. A wonderful selection of daily words, and the quizzes are a great knowledge check.
Plume 1.2.0 brings the daily word to more learners.
• Bilingual definitions are now free. Turn on "Bilingual definitions" in Settings and see a Chinese meaning beneath every English definition — no Pro required.
• Beautiful Chinese typography. Definitions render in Source Han Serif, a literary serif that matches Plume's bookish feel (Regular + Medium weights).
• Fresh icons and labeled navigation (Progress · Practice · Phrases), a friendlier word-story button, more reliable pronunciation.
• Fixed: some long words could collapse to an unreadably small size with bilingual mode on. Every word now shows at full size.
• More reliable purchases. Trial, subscribe, and restore flows were rebuilt for fewer hiccups and clearer messages.
