How to install it, step by step
WordySpot is not available in Safari, Chrome, Firefox or Edge on iPhone and iPad. Your library, word lists and word packs still work in any of them.
Without the extension
Everything on this website works in any browser. Add a book or paste some text and the reader marks the same words, explains them the same way, and saves them to the same lists. What you lose is the rest of the web.
Every browser here has been tried with WordySpot on a real device. If one of them misbehaves, tell me and I will look.
