►WordFlow feature originated from Speech Recognition Technology
- The WordFlow feature of Word Spring highlights every word on the subtitle as the anchor speaks.
- It divides subtitles into units of words, which helps the learner completely focus on the pronunciation.
►The power of VOA Video News Content
- The content available in the app is provided by Americas public broadcasting network VOA (Voice of America).
- Learners can increase their knowledge of current events while watching news related to economics, education, health, nature, technology, lifestyles and others. VOA anchors announce the news in a slow speed.

- Words that appear frequently in the TOEIC and TOEFL tests will be highlighted in different colors on the subtitle to help learners prepare for exams.
- The subtitles are divided into 7 categories (Very difficult, difficult, mildly difficult, normal, slightly easy, easy, very easy) according to their level of difficulties. Learners can select the news according to their own levels.
►The perfect entertainment for your down time: Listening Quiz!
- We understand that learners will get tired after watching English news for an extended period of time. Therefore, for every video, there is a surprise listening quiz that challenges learners to spell the English words pronounced by the anchors. (This feature is available as an in-app purchase.)
