Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Blake, the maker of GlimpseWords. I built this because I’ve always struggled with learning vocabulary consistently. Most tools require dedicated time and effort — which makes it hard to stick with. So I thought: what if learning words didn’t require extra time at all? GlimpseWords is a simple Mac menu bar app that shows words throughout your day, helping you learn passively while you work. No interruptions, no pressure — just natural exposure. You can click any word to see its meaning, pronunciation, and examples. It’s designed to be minimal, lightweight, and something you barely notice — but over time, it adds up. I’d love to hear your feedback: 👉 Would you actually use something like this? 👉 What would make it more useful for you? Thanks so much for checking it out 🙏
