Built for the gap between
"I survive" and "I think in English".

FAQ

Who is WordStudy for? +

Learners at B1 level or above who want to reach B2/C1, prep for IELTS/TOEFL, or work professionally in English. Not for absolute beginners — try Duolingo or Babbel for that.

How does YouTube import work? +

Paste any YouTube URL. The app pulls the subtitles, filters out words below your current level, and gives you only the new vocabulary worth learning.

What does CEFR-tagged mean? +

Every word in our 84,700-word dictionary has a CEFR level: A1 (beginner) through C2 (mastery). When you import a YouTube video, you only get words above your current level.

Is there a free version? +

Yes. Free tier includes 4 collections, 100 YouTube words per month, CEFR levels A1–B2, and the level test.

What's included in the Lifetime plan? +

One payment of $99, no subscription. All premium features forever including future updates. No auto-renewal.

Does it work offline? +

Yes. The dictionary and your word list are stored locally on your device. Sync happens in the background when you reconnect.

How is this different from Anki? +

Anki is a flashcard engine — you bring your own content. WordStudy ships with 84,700 ready-to-learn English words, CEFR levels, and a YouTube importer.

Can I cancel anytime? +

Monthly and annual subscriptions cancel anytime through your Apple ID or Google Play settings. Lifetime is a one-time purchase, nothing to cancel.

How do I delete my account? +

Two ways: in-app (Profile → Settings → Delete account), or via web at wordsstudy.com/delete-account. Both permanently delete your data.
