An editorial reading of the saved reviews

A vocabulary app built around a daily word with illustration and contextual examples. The concept worked well until the 2024 update: the art illustrations were removed, streaks were wiped, and saved words disappeared. The linguistic quality of word selection is high, but one word a day is too slow for meaningful vocabulary growth.
