User reviews

I really don't know when the chrome extension sync to the app? And i cant find the bottom to do it manually? The content of the WordUp app is really high quality compared with other vocabulary apps i have tried. And it works offline, pretty cool I like the dark theme on my smartphone, and i hope WordUp will optimize the light theme to learning devices like "Boox Palma 2" or maybe add a dedicated theme for e-ink screens. Stay positive :D

1. For anyone struggling to sync words across devices, you need to click 'Sync' on both the extension webpage and the mobile device. This is why I rate this extension 3 stars. 2. On the other hand, the performance is quite slow and not responsive but still acceptible.
