Browsers that can run WordySpot

Add WordySpot to Lemur Browser on Android

Lemur installs WordySpot from the Chrome Web Store, like a desktop Chrome does. The store may open in its phone layout first; a reload fixes that.

39 seconds, no sound. The same steps are written out belowbeside it.

Open this page on your Android in Lemur, or follow the steps from wordyspot.com there.

  1. Step 1: Open wordyspot.com in Lemur and tap Add to Lemur

    Step 1

    Open wordyspot.com in Lemur and tap Add to Lemur

    Sign in to WordySpot in Lemur. The home page offers the extension for this browser; tap Add to Lemur.

    Or scroll to the bottom of any page

    Or scroll to the bottom of any page

    Every wordyspot.com page ends with the store links. Under Get the extension, tap Chrome Web Store.

  2. Step 2: Got Add to Desktop? Pull the page down to reload

    Step 2

    Got Add to Desktop? Pull the page down to reload

    The Chrome Web Store often opens in its phone layout, with an Add to Desktop button. That is the wrong button: it does not install anything. Pull the page down to reload it, and repeat until the button says Add to Chrome.

  3. Step 3: Tap Add to Chrome at the top right

    Step 3

    Tap Add to Chrome at the top right

    After the reload the store shows its full listing, which is small on a phone screen; zoom in if you need to. Lemur runs Chrome extensions, so Add to Chrome is the right button here.

  4. Step 4: Tap Add extension

    Step 4

    Tap Add extension

    Lemur asks before an extension can read the pages you open. WordySpot needs that to find the words you are learning. Tap Add extension.

  5. Step 5: Wait for “You’re connected”

    Step 5

    Wait for “You’re connected”

    WordySpot opens a new tab and connects to your account by itself. There is nothing to type. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the account you use on this site.

  6. Step 6: Open a page and tap an underlined word

    Step 6

    Open a page and tap an underlined word

    Open any page in English. Words you have not learned yet are underlined; tap one to see what it means and save it to a list.

  7. Step 7: Later: manage it from the puzzle icon

    Step 7

    Later: manage it from the puzzle icon

    Tap the puzzle icon in the toolbar, then the three dots next to WordySpot, then Manage extension. That page turns WordySpot off, sets which sites it can read, or removes it.

Phones and browsers update often, so a screen may look a little different from the one here. Write to support@wordyspot.com with your browser and the step that went wrong, and I will look.
