Finwords: Goldfish Vocab

Your goldfish forgets everything. Help it remember — and you will too.

Finwords is a vocabulary app built around a curious pet goldfish. Enjoy a daily serving of new words, then practise remembering them with choice and spelling quizzes. Spaced review brings words back over time.

WORDS FROM YOUR OWN LIFE
Look up words manually, explore bundled definitions and examples, and hear pronunciation with Apple speech synthesis. Keep the words you meet in your collection.

EXPLORE THINGS
Discover everyday objects, or use your iPhone camera to recognise an object and save its cutout. Recognition runs on your device and can make mistakes; check the suggested name before saving. Scan recognises objects, not text.

A FRIEND, NOT A SCOREBOARD
Give yourself and your fish a name. Choose your learning level, goals and pace, and return to short practice sessions without a streak to protect.

FREE TO LEARN
Finwords is free, with no ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases. No Finwords account or sign-in is required.

Designed for iPhone with iOS 17 or later.
