## Description

WordBan turns any conversation into a game. Pick the words or phrases that are banned, put your phone on the table, and start the challenge — the moment someone says a banned word, WordBan catches it instantly: score bump, sound, buzz, and it&#39;s on the record.<br><br>HOW IT WORKS<br>• Type in whatever words or phrases you want banned — no limits, any language you like.<br>• Start a challenge and WordBan listens continuously while it runs.<br>• Say a banned word and get caught immediately — visual feedback, a sound, and a vibration, with zero noticeable delay.<br>• Everything that&#39;s heard and every catch is shown live, so you can scroll back through the whole round afterward.<br><br>BUILT FOR CZECH AND ENGLISH<br>Pick the recognition language per challenge. Both Czech and English are built in from the first launch — no extra downloads, no setup.<br><br>PRIVACY FIRST, BY DESIGN<br>WordBan requests on-device-only speech recognition. Your voice is never recorded, saved, or sent anywhere — it exists only in memory while a challenge is running and disappears the moment it ends. There&#39;s no account, no analytics, no ads, and no server on the other end.<br><br>FREE, NO CATCHES<br>No ads, no accounts, nothing to buy. Every feature is available from the moment you install it.<br><br>Whether it&#39;s a house rule about a word you&#39;re all sick of hearing, a party challenge, or just seeing how long anyone can go without saying &quot;like&quot; — WordBan is the automated referee that never misses a slip-up.
