uring academic writing, authors always require a variety of words and phrases in order to avoid repetition and overuse. Having a variety of words in any piece of academic writing adds strength, readability, professionalism and makes the work easy to comprehend. This smartphone application offers authors a large variety of words to choose from. It opens with a paragraph model and displays the four stages that constitute a typical paragraph. Tapping each one of these stages offers a list of words and phrases relevant to that stage. Each of these, in turn, when tapped provide a list of examples of their use. The key element in its design lies in its simplicity, convenience and ease of use. There are no requirements to register and neither does it require any other details of the user. It has been designed by academics with many years of experience in pedagogical practice as it was felt that the increasing overuse of certain words and phrases leads to poor and sub-standard work by students. The design is based on an established, successful and widely-used model of paragraph writing.
