iWordQ Pro UK

iWordQ Pro UK (UK English) is an easy-to-use writing and reading app designed for students in senior school, college and university, as well as professionals.

In Writing mode, a simple text editor is used for writing with the support of word prediction, abbreviation-expansion and speech feedback features. Spell-check and dictionary access is included. You can also use speech recognition.

In Reading mode, text is shown in a more visually pleasing manner to improve readability. This is used for proofreading, reading to learn, silent reading, reading aloud, and casual reading/listening. A novel text chunking method (patent-pending) can be selected to enhance comprehension and readability of text to allow you to focus on one text chunk at a time.

WRITING MODE

A simple text editor supports writing with word prediction, abbreviation expansion, speech feedback, spell-checking, dictionary access and speech recognition.

Word Prediction

Suggested words appear as you type. Tap a word to select it, or enable creative and phonetic spelling prediction for additional support. Usage examples help distinguish similar-sounding words, including homonyms. Predictions remain accurate when you move the cursor.

Speech Feedback

Touch and hold a predicted word to hear it spoken using high-quality text-to-speech. Typed and selected words can be read aloud, and completed sentences are spoken after punctuation is added and you tap the space bar.

Selected text can be read with word-by-word highlighting. Double-tap to select a word or paragraph, then drag to extend the selection. Speech review controls let you move forwards or backwards by sentence or word.

Abbreviation Expansion

Create customised abbreviations, or text macros, to simplify writing. Abbreviations appear in the prediction list and can expand into text containing punctuation or multiple paragraphs.

Sharing

Documents are saved automatically and available from the File menu. You can also share through email, Facebook, Messages, the pasteboard and other apps.

READING MODE

The onscreen keyboard is hidden, and the current sentence appears in black while surrounding text is greyed out to improve focus. Tap another sentence to select it.

Proofreading

Listen to sentences to identify mistakes. Tap a word to highlight and hear it, helping you detect incorrect spelling, word forms or word choices. Swipe across several words to hear a phrase and check whether the words work well together.

Reading to Learn

Patented Text Chunking divides sentences into meaningful segments, adding pauses that support comprehension. Tap within a sentence to highlight and hear the relevant segment. During playback, pauses between chunks give you time to process the text.

Reading Aloud

Use iWordQ like a teleprompter. Read at the app’s speaking pace or at your own speed while sentences and text chunks are highlighted.

Silent Reading

Turn off speech feedback and read silently at the app’s pace or your own. Sentences and text chunks remain highlighted as you move through the text.

Casual Reading

Tap the first sentence to choose a starting point, then play sentences automatically or advance through them manually.
