User Reviews

Users praise Brill for daily vocabulary, ease of learning, and broad language options, and appreciate having words accessible on their phone. However, a recurring issue is that the word of the day often fails to refresh, sometimes staying the same or acting up with UI quirks. Some mention basic free-word lists and occasional bugs, but overall sentiment is positive about the app's concept and usefulness.
Pros
  • Daily vocabulary keeps learning fresh and helps maintain consistency.
  • Makes learning a language easy and enjoyable.
  • Offers a wide variety of languages to choose from.
  • Very convenient and accessible, with words available when you open your phone.
Cons
  • Word of the Day often fails to refresh or changes inconsistently (stuck or affected by UI quirks).

It doesn’t refresh at all, I really wanted to love this. I’ve had it for weeks and I think the word has changed 3 times, despite me having it on the “hourly” update
by Kb*****, 2026-04-17

It’s a great app and pro is really reasonable, but I noticed that the word list (Specifically in Portuguese) has some just wrong. Ele = it is not true and it feels wrong not having “to” in front of un-conjugated verbs. Otherwise the idea is great. Having a bug where the word list keeps deselecting itself.
