A few genuinely useful words a day, locked in with a quick quiz. Two minutes, and the right word is always there when you reach for it.

Wordish fits into the smallest pocket of your day and asks nothing more of you than a couple of quiet minutes.
A handful of genuinely useful words, each with a clear definition, a real example, and a note on exactly when to reach for it.
Three quick questions turn recognition into recall. Gentle feedback, no penalties — just the quiet satisfaction of getting it right.
Come back tomorrow and the flame grows. A week in, the weekly quiz brings everything back together so it truly sticks.
Three things that turn a word you just met into one you actually use.
Ward is the voice inside Wordish — a speech bubble with a good vocabulary and better manners. He shows up to celebrate a streak or nudge you toward the right nuance, then gets out of the way so learning stays calm and yours.
Wordish is a daily vocabulary app for iPhone that turns learning new words into a two-minute ritual: a small set of genuinely useful words, a quick quiz, and a streak that keeps you coming back. It's made for people who want to sound more precise in everyday conversation, writing, and work — not to cram for a test.
Keep each session short and low-pressure. Wordish gives you just a handful of words and a three-question quiz a day — no penalties, no clutter — then a weekly review brings the week's words back together. A growing streak and gentle nudges from Ward, the in-app guide, make the habit easy to keep without it feeling like a chore.

Each word comes with a clear definition, a real example sentence, and a note on exactly when to use it — then a short quiz turns recognition into recall. A weekly retrieval quiz and a visual "word web" of everything you've learned space the words out over time so they move into long-term memory.
Yes. Every word includes a plain-English definition, a natural example sentence, pronunciation (both spelled-out and audio), its part of speech, and often the word's origin and synonyms — 5,550 hand-checked words across 19 topics, from everyday life to law.
Wordish is free to start, with an optional subscription that unlocks the full experience — usually with a free trial. Subscriptions are billed through the App Store and can be cancelled anytime from your Apple account settings.
Flashcard apps make you build and manage your own decks. Wordish hands you a curated daily set and a short quiz, so there's nothing to set up — it focuses on a few high-value words with real context and a streak, rather than endless self-made cards.
Yes. You can turn on daily reminders at a frequency you choose, keep a streak with a flame that grows each day, and add a home-screen widget that shows your next word at a glance.
