About
You meet new words everywhere — on signs and menus, in chats and memes, in songs, articles and shows. A translator gives you one word back and throws the context away. WordCue does the opposite: Don't translate it. Understand it. Now for three languages: English, Spanish and French. Pick the one you are learning in Settings, and every word you look up is taken as a word of that language and explained in it. HOW IT WORKS • Type the word, paste it, photo it, or just say it. • See 2–5 real meanings, each with a tiny example. • Pick the one YOU actually met — that's the whole trick. "Sick" on a skateboard video and "sick" in a pharmacy are different words to a learner. • Get it explained in plain words at your level (A2 / B1 / B2), in the language you are learning, with a fresh example. No translation wall between you and the language. WHAT ELSE IT DOES • Photo a sign, a page or subtitles — the word is read right out of the image. • Meaning not in the list? Add the words around it and the exact sense is decoded from your context. • One-tap translation into your own language — after you've understood it. • "Similar words" and "Explain simpler" — dig as deep as you like. • Save words to your own dictionary, kept separately for each language, and revisit them anytime. • Voice input, and pronunciation for every word. WORKS OFFLINE The built-in English dictionary of 1,000+ common words — with all their slang and informal senses — lives on your phone and works with no connection at all. NO ACCOUNT. NO TRACKING. No sign-up, no email, no ads, no analytics SDKs. Your saved words stay on your device. FREE AND PLUS Free: 5 lookups a day, including words from the built-in offline dictionary. Plus (monthly or yearly): unlimited requests within fair use and native-speaker pronunciation. Either plan starts with a 7-day free trial; current prices are shown in the app. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
