Vocabulary Builder
Hover tooltip
Hover any word on any webpage for Band 7+ synonyms with band scores, CEFR level, IPA phonetic, part of speech, definition, example sentence, and a one-click save button — all without leaving the page.
Highlight to translate
Select any word or phrase to get an instant translation in your language. Single words also show a Learn button so you can save them to your deck without opening the popup.
Page scanner
Scan any article or webpage to extract all B1–C2 vocabulary words at once. Add them to your deck individually or all in one tap.
Spaced repetition (SM-2)
Review mode uses the SM-2 algorithm — rate each card Again, Hard, or Easy and the extension schedules it for exactly the right moment before you forget it.
A1–C2 CEFR tagging
Every word is tagged A1 to C2 so you always know where it sits on the proficiency scale. Filter your review queue by level to focus on C1/C2 words that move your band score.
IPA & audio
Flashcard fronts show the IPA phonetic transcription and a native-speaker audio button — so you learn pronunciation alongside meaning from day one.
Mastery tracking
Words reviewed consistently over 21 days are marked as mastered. The popup shows a live progress bar — active deck vs. mastered — so you can see your vocabulary growing.
Cross-device sync
Your deck, review history, and mastery data sync to your ieltsmemo.com account automatically. Start on your laptop, continue on your phone — your progress is always up to date.
Practice Writer
Guided section writing
Write your introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion in separate sections — each with its own word count target and progress bar. Works for Task 1 Academic, Task 1 General, and all Task 2 question types.
Mock exam mode
A 20-minute (Task 1) or 40-minute (Task 2) countdown starts automatically. A live pacing bar tracks which stage you should be on. The essay locks when time runs out — just like the real exam.
Spell & grammar check
Powered by LanguageTool — catches spelling and grammar errors across all sections as you type. Click any error chip to jump straight to the mistake and see correction suggestions.
Weak word detector
Flags simple, low-scoring words — "good", "big", "use", "show", "think" — and offers Band 7+ replacements. Replace every instance at once, or step through them one by one with the navigation tool.
Formal register checker
Spots informal language that costs marks — "gonna", "a lot", "really", "stuff", "okay" and 15 others — and suggests the formal academic alternative for each.
Cohesive device counter
Counts your linking words by category — Addition, Contrast, Cause & Effect, Examples, Conclusion — so you can see at a glance whether your essay is properly signposted for the examiner.
Vocabulary diversity score
Shows what percentage of your words are unique. A higher score demonstrates lexical range to the examiner and directly lifts your Lexical Resource band score.
Essay templates
One-click structure templates for every question type — Opinion, Discussion, Problem-Solution, Advantages/Disadvantages, Two-part, and all Task 1 subtypes (bar, line, pie, table, map, process, formal/informal letter).
Self-check checklist
A task-specific checklist — tailored to your exact question type — lets you tick off every examiner criterion before you submit. Different checklists for Opinion, Discussion, Task 1 Academic, and more.
