An English vocabulary Chrome extension is out

An English vocabulary Chrome extension is out

onemoreword now has a browser extension. It is not an add-on to the app and not a click-to-translate dictionary — it is the app itself, ported to Chrome: the same word base, the same flashcards and the same spaced repetition algorithm.

Here is the page: onemoreword for Chrome.

The whole app, not a widget

The extension opens in the Chrome side panel — the narrow column beside the page you are working on. Its proportions are close to a phone screen, so the interface needed no redesign: you see exactly what the mobile version shows — the word card with transcription, translation, audio, a picture and example sentences.

The only real difference is where you are. A phone has to be picked up, unlocked and put back down; the side panel lets you learn between tasks without leaving your working window. Finish an email, open the panel, review a dozen words, close it.

Everything is unlocked

The main difference from the mobile version: the extension has no paid features. Premium has been removed from it entirely, and with it the daily limit on new words and the split between open and locked collections.

  • No daily limit — open as many new words as you are ready to review;
  • The whole word base — over 100 themed collections: everyday life, work, travel, business, technology and dozens of other topics;
  • Your own collections — your words, your examples, your audio;
  • No ads and no sign-up — no banners, no account, no email address.

Installing and using the extension is free: there is no subscription in it.

One thing to know upfront

An honest caveat: progress does not sync with your phone. The extension keeps its own review history, and it does not travel to the app or back. If you already learn words on mobile, you start fresh in the browser — and the other way round.

That follows from how onemoreword works in general: there are no accounts, and without an account there is nothing to tie progress to. We decided that skipping sign-up matters more than syncing between devices.

Who the browser suits better

  • People at a computer all day — the extension sits one panel away, always at hand;
  • Students and exam candidates — reviewing a collection between lectures is easier on the same screen as your notes;
  • Anyone who would rather not pick up the phone — a short session on a phone too often ends in a messenger.

How to install it

The extension installs from the Chrome Web Store in one click — the install button is on the extension page. It works in Chrome and in other Chromium-based browsers: Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc.

Once installed, pin the icon to the toolbar, open the side panel and pick your first collection — the first twenty words take about ten minutes.

Healthcare workers get their own extension

The Medical English app has its own extension with clinical vocabulary: symptoms, diagnoses, procedures and talking to patients. Details are on the medical extension page.

Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers that install extensions from the Chrome Web Store: Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc.

The word base and the spaced repetition algorithm are the same. What differs is where it lives and what is unlocked: the extension opens in the browser side panel and everything in it is open, while in the app some features belong to Premium.

About ten minutes a day. The algorithm brings each word back shortly before you would forget it, so short regular sessions work better than rare long ones.
