The Rotational Word / Working title / In development

A small moment. A new word.

An authentication step can leave you with something worth remembering. The Rotational Word pairs changing word codes with their meanings.

In development. The Rotational Word is a working title for a standalone product direction. Its existing TAGII implementation is called Word Key.

Let a routine check give something back.

You read an authentication code, type it and move on. The Rotational Word asks what that small moment could offer: a word you recognise, a meaning you discover, or a spelling that becomes more familiar.

The purpose is learning through an action you already need to take. The word changes with the code. Its meaning can stay with you.

Read the words. Explore their meaning.

TAGII’s current Word Key code uses a phrase of three words that rotates every minute. The app has a countdown and lets you tap a word to look up its meaning. It is an additional identity check, separate from the main sign-in.

One original definition from TAGII’s Word Key source. This is a word-and-meaning example, not an active authentication code or an app screenshot.

After setup, the enrolled device can generate its word phrase without a network connection. Looking up a meaning currently needs the server. Those are two separate parts of the experience.

Built into TAGII. Being developed for more.

Word generation and verification code, server endpoints and a Flutter screen already exist. The full setup and verification journey still needs end-to-end release testing. A finished standalone product is not available yet.

The wider direction is to let other products offer word-based codes, and to give people a personal list of words they have encountered. That collection is an idea in development, not a score or a completed feature.

A useful idea, with work still to do.

Choosing words people can read, type and tell apart matters. So do clear definitions, dictionary permissions and testing across devices. The standalone name, packaging and release arrangements remain open.

Words give the code its learning purpose. They do not replace the need for careful authentication design, expiry, misuse protection and recovery testing.
