Today you’ll learn band 8 specific vocabulary for apps to use on your next IELTS Speaking Exam.

The topic of cell phones and apps, or applications (we rarely use the full word), pops up often on the IELTS Speaking Exam.

In Speaking Part 1, you could be asked about your favorite apps, for instance.

In Part 2, perhaps you’ll be asked to describe a time you were glad your phone was with you.

Then, in Part 3, you may be asked more serious questions, about digital addictions and social media issues.

The key, as always, to getting high scores for Fluency and Vocabulary is to always provide specific details, and the vocabulary today will help you accomplish that.
