Yak Tack

This might be the first app review I’ve left in my many years of being an iPhone user. I cannot overstate my pleasure in making this simple, elegant app part of my morning routine. It makes learning new words a pleasure, reinforces them effectively, and introduces them frequently, allowing you to choose which ones you’d like to learn. I also enjoy the comments for each word and the ability to see what others have tacked. A truly great app - thank you for making it!

A simple way to learn new words and expand your vocabulary. Whether you’re looking to own the meeting room, impress the future in-laws, or speak English as a second language, this app is your secret weapon.

There is undeniable beauty in the simplicity of this app. You’re not going to be hampered by extraneous bells & whistles or features that force you to ponder their value. This app does one thing really well...it helps you remember words that you want to add to your lexicon. One feature I’d love to see added in the future is the ability to quickly see synonyms for any given word you’ve chosen (aka. thesaurus entries). Highly recommended!
