Problem

Studying words is not hard; studying the right list at the right time is.

Most apps either give you a fixed course or leave you alone with flashcards. Vocabary combines both: you bring your list, and the system schedules the reviews.

I cannot study my own list.

I review too early and waste time.

I review too late and forget.

I start using an app, then drop it.

Your list

However your file looks, the list is yours.

No template is forced on you. Upload your file and choose which column is the word and which column is the meaning. Vocabary makes the first guess; if it is wrong, you correct it. Word and meaning are enough; example, IPA and CEFR fields are optional.

Right timing

The same word, with widening intervals.

You learn a word today. It comes back tomorrow. When you know it, the gap grows; when you struggle, the gap shrinks. You do not build a calendar; your answers build it.

When you struggle with a word, the interval gets shorter and the word appears more often.

FSRS-based scheduling
Learning ladder

It trains use, not just recognition.

Vocabary introduces the word first; then it asks you to recall it, type it, fill it into context and use it in a sentence. Recognizing an option and producing the word yourself are tracked separately.
