Pros and cons of Brain Blaze Word Roots Flashcards for GRE* & SAT* Prep app for iPhone and iPad

Brain Blaze Word Roots Flashcards for GRE* & SAT* Prep app good for

Thought i knew word roots pretty well, but it turns out I didnt! This is a nice app, lots of things to learn, and it keeps repeating difficult definitions until you learn them, really useful. If you are curious about your performance you can check the stats section and get a bigger picture of what words you need to work on. Several users can use the same app thanks to the profile creator, no need to ruin anyones advances in the app. The interface is nicely designed, and easy to understand.

This is a great, fun, very useful and informative app. For anyone who is interested in cultivating a well rounded vocabulary, this app is perfect teacher.

This app works flawlessly in offer of flash card methods to learn word roots. The makers could benefit by expanding on this model to generate more word root sets. The colored progress tables do not seem to tie in or measure directly your progress as it relates to the users performance, but I appreciate the intent. Overall a great app with more potential awaiting release.

This app has been fun for my children and me for the last four years. I like the hints and scoring. The flash cards circle back around to the missed ones just like you would do IRL.

Some bad moments

Was excited to try this app but it crashes immediately on my iphone 6 iOS 9.

I was really hoping this app would help me develop my vocabulary for the gre, but it crashes as soon as I start the game. Not worth paying $4 for.
