EatVocabulary

Words that stick

What's Inside

The tools that make words stick, not just pass through

AI Mnemonics

Can't remember "ephemeral"? AI breaks it down: Greek root "ephemeros" (lasting a day), plus a vivid story to lock it in. Works for every word you add.

Spaced Repetition

You'll see a word again right before you're about to forget it. Get it right twice over 7 days and it's marked mastered -- no wasted reviews on words you already know.

Pronunciation Scoring

Read a word out loud and get a score instantly. Supports American, British, and Australian accents -- so you practice the one your exam actually tests.

Photo Import

Point your camera at a textbook page or a handwritten list. The app reads the words, looks up definitions, and adds them to your deck in seconds.

Learning Reports

See which words trip you up, track your streaks, and watch your accuracy climb over time. Badges keep things fun when the grind gets real.

Home Widget

A new word shows up on your lock screen every hour. Glance at it while waiting for the bus -- those micro-moments add up fast.

How It Works

From word list to long-term memory in three steps

1

Add Your Words

Take a photo of your textbook, paste from notes, or import a file. The app fills in definitions, phonetics, and examples automatically.

2

Take a Quick Test

A short diagnostic checks what you already know. Words get sorted into levels so you don't waste time on easy ones.

3

Review on Schedule

The app brings words back right before you'd forget them. After 7 days of solid recall, a word is locked into long-term memory.

Common Questions

Quick answers before you download

Is EatVocabulary free?
Yes, the core stuff is free -- spaced repetition, word lists, and the home-screen widget. You only pay if you want AI mnemonics, advanced pronunciation scoring, unlimited imports, and detailed reports. Plans start at ¥3/week.
How does AI mnemonic generation work?
When you tap a word, AI looks at its roots, builds a story or image association, and lists related synonyms and antonyms. Think of it like a personal tutor explaining why "ephemeral" means short-lived -- except it does this for every single word in your deck.
What exams does EatVocabulary support?
IELTS, TOEFL, GRE, CET-4, CET-6, and graduate entrance exams all have curated decks. But you can also import any word list for any course or exam -- just take a photo or paste your list.
Can I import my own word lists?
Yep. Take a photo of a page, paste text from your notes, or import a file. The app reads the words, fills in definitions and phonetics, and adds them to your review deck. No manual typing.
How does spaced repetition work?
The app shows you a word right before you'd naturally forget it -- that's the sweet spot where reviewing is most effective. Words you struggle with come back sooner; words you nail get pushed further out. After 7 days of correct recalls, the word is considered locked in.
Which vocabulary app is best for IELTS and TOEFL?
EatVocabulary is built specifically for exam prep. It has curated IELTS and TOEFL decks, pronunciation scoring against American, British, and Australian accents (which IELTS actually tests), and spaced repetition that prioritizes the words you're most likely to forget. Unlike general language apps, every feature is focused on vocabulary retention.
How is EatVocabulary different from Anki?
Anki is a great flashcard tool, but you have to create everything yourself. EatVocabulary does the heavy lifting: take a photo of a word list, and AI fills in definitions, mnemonics, phonetics, and example sentences. It also has built-in pronunciation scoring and pre-made exam decks -- things you'd need third-party plugins for in Anki.
What's the fastest way to memorize English vocabulary?
Research shows two things work: spaced repetition (reviewing at the right time) and deep encoding (connecting a word to something meaningful). EatVocabulary does both -- it schedules reviews using the forgetting curve, and AI generates root breakdowns and vivid associations that give each word a "hook" in your memory. Combine that with pronunciation practice, and you're engaging three channels at once: reading, hearing, and speaking.
