WordUp is a revolutionary app for learning new English words and improving your vocabulary. It maps out where the gaps in your knowledge are, and creates a personalised learning plan that focuses on one word at a time.
This Chrome Extension allows you to complete your WordUp knowledge map as you browse the web. It will scan the page you’re looking at, and check every word on the page against your WordUp knowledge map.
– If you have declared that you know the word, it will do nothing.
– If you have declared that you don’t, then it will show a red underline, helping you to quickly look up the word’s definitions with a single click.
– If you have not declared it either way, it will show a green line below the word, which you can then click to see the definitions and also declare if you knew it or not.
This helps you in 2 ways. Firstly, it will help you to complete your WordUp knowledge map. Secondly, and once, your knowledge map is more complete, it will cleverly highlight any word that you don’t know on any web page, and help you look it up with no effort!
This helps you to build WordUp into your everyday life and make the most out of your WordUp knowledge map in your day to day life.
With WordUp, you are in control of your knowledge.
Really great extension! Thank you
how can I use this
how can I search for a word meaning
I cant access to the search bar
Update Suggestion
I love this extension and how it connects with the mobile app. However, it seems to dominate my web browsing experience when I hover over every single word. If it would only pop up on underlined words the app is pointing out, or if it only popped up on highlighted words, then this would be amazing. I might have to disable the extension for now, we will see..
I believe it will get better but I wonder why do you need to read browsing history permission?
It works pretty well, however on some sites it easily becomes annoying (e.g. when I want to focus on my work and e.g. I read Jira tickets I do not want to be disturbed by underlined words), so a “do not show on the pages of this site” feature would be much appreciated (similarly how AdBlock works).
Dear dev
Can you make the application behave like google traslate behave, when the word is selected then the icon would pop up. It is quite annoying right now, it is just keep showing the word-up icon on every word. Overall, the app is great, but the one i mentioned is the biggest issue
A few months ago, this extension did not work with me, and I was also experiencing issues with my database on my phone. The support team took care of it and now everything is working fine! I really like the app, thanks!
بسیار مفید و کاربردی- سپاس فراوان از شما جناب خاموشی
I love your idea of this extension but please give a option like when i select the word show me meaning of that word because when this extension analyses full page it makes my browser pretty slow .
problem :
1. When i select it for specific site it stopes working after few times it doesn’t show meaning it only shows word with pronunciation .
Suggestion :
1. Make it work like google translate when i select word show me the meaning of that word
{ because when i browse sites your extension pops up at the time when i am not searching for the word meaning}
This is an amazing extension! Along with the app, it makes an innovative and unique ecosystem of English study.
Some people complain that the extension makes website interface messy, I agree with them. Nevertheless, in order to study English effectively, you have to sacrifice the interface of your browser.
awesome but there is a glitch in loading the definition of a word in extension.
Hey, First, Thanks for this innovative Idea, But the implementation and communications could be a lot better, I wanted to subscribe but when I faced with a bug in this extension (It does not work now afer some days without any error, Just does not show the meaning) and also I have a problem with splash loading time of the app on android, So when you need to know a meaning of word instantly, You feels like WASTING, It’s disturbing, So you can not rely on this app as an dictionary app.
At the end you can not turn the extension off for some websites because if You do it, It will not work.
I like this app
I have a problem with syncing the extension with the app. The first time after adding the extension the “Try sync” button works fine, but after that, it doesn’t work. Not syncing causes missing some data on the app and if I want to sync the extension, I have to remove it from my Chrome and add it again. It’s really bothering.
This is amazing. Thank you for your extension. Brilliant, epic, wonderful
amazing extention..
it’s amazing. thanks.
It doesn’t work due to authorization issue. It seems the verification link (e.g. https://auth.wordupapp.co/ext/verify/123456789) is not available and leads to 404 status code.
Why the extension overrides some p elements fonts to sans-sarif?!
I don’t like the idea of how this extension works in the webpages. The pages looks so unclean. Btw, I am unable to copy the meanings and definitions. sucks!
Great, finally there’s a browser extension for this app!
However, it’s a little bit intrusive, for example, on Google Docs pages it underlines words in any place, which is kind of annoying.
Are there any ways to disable the extension on specific sites, like an “exclude sites” feature?
Great idea, but inconvenient to use; can’t sync automatically; can’t even find a way to sync manually after closed the welcome page!
