The name is "wordpoke". http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wordpoke/id471756627

I use the app every day as I built it for me first, the internet second.

A blog post is in draft, waiting the "first update" as its all part of the learning curve I wanted to cover in my journey into iOS development.

A new update to the app will be arriving within 10 days, Apple willing. ( It was interesting to learn how to tackle upgrades to the database. )

Issues can be reported and progress can be viewed: https://github.com/freshteapot/wordpoke/issues

New features are not on that list.

The webpage for "wordpoke" is http://wordpoke.me

On the way to work, I realised I should and now will add it to my profile.

Just a thought - the screenshots look really great, but you will definitely want to write a much longer app description. I would NEVER buy the app based on that description alone since it is $3 and I don't even fully understand what it's for. Why would I want to be reminded of certain words? Is it like a flashcard app?
