Version 1.6.x — September 2026

A new way into reading, a place of its own for your progress, the fix that finally lets everything travel between your devices — and, last of all, your own textbook choosing not just the forms but the example sentences too.

UNDA — the new way in. One connected text, sentence by sentence, with audio. Unda turns a reading text into a practice route: its vocabulary, its forms, its sentence parts. While you practise, the text writes itself out beside you — once the book is full, you can read it. It is not a quick mode but a project across several sessions; your place is kept. Unda in detail
Unda can be tidied up. Finished texts move out of the way with a ✕; they collect in a folded “Tidied away” section and come back with one tap. Nothing is deleted — your progress stays intact.
Your teacher’s texts get their own box. If your school has enabled Unda, you will find “From your teacher” with your class’s texts.
My Area: your progress at a glance, sorted by trainer — and on a page of its own instead of a window that ran off the bottom of the screen. At the top, at most two things worth your attention right now, each with “Practise” and “Help”. Below that, three collapsed rows: grammar, vocabulary, forms. My Area in detail
A mix-up is now counted once. Each trainer used to keep its own list. Now what you confuse is recorded wherever it happens — and it remembers where it came from. For you that means: whatever keeps going wrong appears as one entry, with the full count behind it, and the help follows it. The names are spelled out now — “plural → singular” instead of “pl → sg”.
Hint and explanation right at the card. “Hint” is always there; “Explanation” appears from the second identical mix-up onwards and disappears again after two correct answers. Both work without a licence and offline. New: the whole ending series as a hint — now for adjectives too.
No more dead ends. If your handwriting is not recognised twice, the answer buttons appear, and “Rather type it” stays visible above them. When building syllables, one tap takes a placed syllable back.
Turbo for quick practice of forms and vocabulary. The story has moved to Unda; Turbo is once again the short mixed round in between. The word chain can now be traced with your finger — tapping still works.
Reading library: 164 texts by 16 authors, adapted and in the original, levels L3 to L27.
Sentence quiz reworked. Tenses are colour-coded, sentence types and forms corrected in many places. On the start screen you will find a “Practise your mix-ups” box — it preselects area, tense and form for you, but does not start on its own.
The perfect tense in year 1. In the second half of the first year the perfect — the narrative tense — is now available. The imperfect deliberately stays in year 2.
Daily greeting. The quote now matches your year of study and comes from six authors instead of two — without the level label that never belonged to the sentence anyway.
Audio: 224 sentence recordings renewed, 172 previously silent sentences voiced.
The app starts faster. No pressure, no ads, no gamification — under Settings → Learning mode you decide how the app works with you.

Fixed in 1.6.1:

Your progress finally travels in full. Three devices were always part of the deal — but your own vocabulary lists were never uploaded, and a dozen other things (year of study, texts you had read, your library, active and paused lists, textbook choice, interface language, your learning settings) only travelled along if something else happened to trigger a sync. That is fixed. Merging is lossless: both devices keep what they had.
What deliberately stays on the device: sound on/off, stylus on/off and the dyslexia-friendly font. They belong to the screen you are learning at, not to you. Your daily streak stays local too.
One honest limitation: deleting is not synced. A list removed on one device comes back from the other until it is deleted there as well — the deliberately lossless direction.
“Statement” is no longer a wrong distractor. In the sentence quiz the “Statement” button was offered on more than 3,000 sentences where the sentence is a statement — so the right answer came back red. The marking itself was correct all along; the button was wrong.
The tense filter holds again. Choose “present” and you get the present. 111 contradictory tense labels have been corrected.
“With guidance” is the default for everyone again — in the sentence quiz as in the reading mode. Your own choice still wins.
The hint bar in Unda reliably stays in view. In the vocabulary trainer the start buttons are now “Learn all” and “Learn lists”. On the form trainer result the gender you were asked about stays marked, even as you page through the table.
1.6.2 — the textbook presets are here. You can still pick the standard learning year — the middle line running through all the textbooks — or, from now on, go straight to one of the most common ones. Under Settings → Learning Mode → With a textbook you choose your book, then the volume, then the lesson. What is new: it no longer just shows and hides tenses, moods and vocabulary — it now also picks the example sentences to match where you are, in the forms trainers and in the sentence quiz.
The audio has been reworked. The pronunciation now sits much closer to the Latin. And it actually reaches you: if you had already heard a sentence once, you could previously be stuck with the old recording for a long time — a new recording now gets to you within a day.
Vocabulary scanning gives you a choice. Either exactly the forms printed on your page, or the dictionary entries (nominative / infinitive), converted automatically. The switch sits where you crop the photo. Every scanned entry now carries both languages, German and English.
Principal parts and tables now appear throughout for irregular verbs and nouns, so you pick them up along the way. For adjectives you can click through the gender tables on the results page, and the translation comes before the hint.
“Sign out device” no longer deletes your cloud progress. Signing out used to remove the data for the whole licence. Now there are two separate paths: signing out clears only the device; deleting all your data is a separate, clearly marked button. In addition, the server keeps the last three states per licence — in case something does go wrong.
Stylus input has got better — on Android, tapping the wax tablet was being intercepted by the system handwriting; that is fixed. In the forms trainer the same word form no longer appears twice in a row, and consecutive example sentences share a character, so they read as a connected story rather than a list.
Four crashes fixed that only ever happened in the finished app — they affected startup, the wax tablet, handwriting recognition and the vocabulary scan.
Note for iPhone and iPad: There the same release carries the number 1.6.3 — all that was added are new App Store images; nothing in the app itself changed.

Version 1.5.x — July to September 2026

Writing instead of typing, our own reading texts, a rebuilt vocabulary trainer — and a reading library that finally looks like one.

Writing instead of typing (the wax tablet). Write forms by hand — with a stylus or your finger, in the vocabulary trainer, the form trainer and “Stone upon stone”. Recognition runs offline on the device.
Draw your own picture. Sketch a picture for a word — scrappy is fine, nobody else has to recognise it. It stays with you through the repetitions and drops away once you no longer need it.
64 reading texts of our own. One connected story for the first three years — Latin, German, English, every sentence voiced.
The vocabulary trainer, rebuilt. Clear tabs (Learn · Manage · Progress). Your own lists are full citizens — with pronunciation, word class and principal parts. Proper names like “Roma” or “Caesar” no longer show up as a word to learn or as a wrong answer. 835 meanings were freed of articles and bracketed extras: the word is what’s asked, not the article.
Your path, step by step. Verbs and nouns no longer hit you with 30 forms at once — they build up gradually. Switchable in the settings.
The reading section, newly dressed. Two tabs — “Read” for the text you have open and “Library” for all authors as picture tiles, with filters (classical, theological, level). New: Pliny and Trajan, the liturgical texts as their own area, eight Latin prayers and 155 new vocabulary lists matching the texts. Every sentence is voiced.
Comparison (comparative & superlative) in the form trainer — with example sentences and audio. Plus many new examples for adjectives, participles and the subjunctive; an example sentence now reliably contains the form it asks about.
A structured syllabus across years 1–4 — from the first word to reading the originals. And: the app is fully bilingual, German and English.
Vocabulary scan. Crooked photos can be straightened while cropping. No recognised entry is lost — not even an incomplete one. Where your book differs from our database, the book wins.
You can see what the full version offers. An info panel at the bottom shows the comparison of free and full version — and your licence key goes straight in there. On Android you can buy the full version through Google Play.
Finally legible on Android. A font of our own in which “l” and “I” no longer look alike — nobody confuses “silva”, “illa”, “filii” any more. Dark mode is legible throughout.
“Type it out” shows the Latin form by default. If you prefer — especially with dyslexia — switch off “Type Latin only” and practise German→Latin as well. It trains the link in both directions and is expressly recommended.
For teachers: student licences can be sent by email, class settings apply reliably on every device, and individual trainers or games can be shown or hidden for a whole class — without losing any progress.
Fixed: commands and wishes are recognised correctly (“noli vocare!” is an imperative, not an indicative); many cases where a correct answer was marked wrong; more reliable cloud storage (merging instead of overwriting); the form trainer and Turbo record their sessions again.

Version 1.4.x — June and July 2026

The sentences get a common foundation, and learning together becomes possible.

Sensus: learning word meanings in context — not the vocabulary equation, but the meaning that holds in this sentence.
Turbo: a cross-country mode drawn from your recent sessions.
Learning together — and a dark mode.
A completely new, shared architecture for the sentences across the form trainer, reading, Sensus and the sentence quiz. It is under the bonnet, but it is the foundation of everything that followed.
Checked practice sentences: forms and grammatical descriptions were systematically reviewed and corrected.
Better legibility (dyslexia focus): more contrast in Turbo and the “Learning together” games, finer colour marking of sentence parts.
Rework of the guided mode in the sentence quiz, of the micro-help and of the game settings in the vocabulary trainer. More and deeper reports for teachers.

Version 1.3.x — May and June 2026 · the app store release

A huge vocabulary update: the database grew to 11,000 hand-curated entries.
New for the free version: try the AI-assisted vocabulary scanner five times for free, create one vocabulary list of your own (up to 30 words), read reading collections at levels L3 and L6 for free.
A tidier menu, a clearer reading overview, fixed errors in the vocabulary list search.
