Everything you need to read your way to German
Six tools that work together: a library to read from, instant translation while you read, and review tools that grow out of what you've actually seen.
A growing library
Original stories organized into series, spanning A1 through B2. Filter by CEFR level, genre, grammar focus, or read status to find exactly what fits.
Genres range from cozy slice-of-life ("Meine Haustiere") to a B2 detective series set in 1960s Vienna ("Die Geschichten des Maurice Dupuis"). Long-press a story to save it as a favourite or preview its vocabulary, and check the "Recommended for you" row for what to read next.
Tap-to-translate
Every sentence is pre-analyzed word by word, so a tap resolves to the exact grammatical sense in play, the right one of several meanings a word might have, not a generic dictionary-lookup guess.
Flashcards that remember
Words you look up while reading can be added to a review deck with one long-press. Reviews are scheduled with a spaced-repetition algorithm, so words resurface right before you'd forget them.
Comprehension quizzes
Every story ends with a short multiple-choice quiz, so reading turns into a checkpoint you can actually track, not just passive scrolling.
Tenses practice
A dedicated drill for Perfekt, Präteritum, and Futur I conjugation, including reflexive verbs, with flip-card or typed-answer "Writing" mode and a running correct count.
Preposition practice
NewReal sentences pulled straight from the story library, with the governed noun phrase blanked out. Type or reveal the correctly declined article and noun, and a "Writing" mode grades typed answers on the spot.
