busuu.com goes iPad with seven free language learning apps

Thanks to our very active community we had over 1 million downloads of our iPhone apps in the first four months of our mobile launch in October last year. Since then, we have received incredible feedback including many requests for an iPad version. Today, we are very proud to announce the eagerly awaited launch of our seven native iPad apps!

From now on, you can download each app for learning Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and English directly onto your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. With the updated version, we have now also created a side bar for easier navigation through the various language courses. Furthermore, we have adapted the screen layouts specifically for the iPad to give you a great user experience.

Every app offers our award-winning audio-visual learning content and can be used without an internet connection.

Each busuu.com iPhone/iPad application contains:

• Vocabulary: as with our online language courses, you can flip through more than 3,000 key words and phrases. In addition, all learning content is supported by pictures and professional voice-overs.

• Dialogue: you will have access to more than 150 dialogues spoken by native speakers as well as multiple choice questions to test your reading comprehension skills.

• Interactive exercises: you can test yourself with our fun and varied unit reviews!
  
• Mistakes overview: the application stores all of your test mistakes to help you focus on your weaknesses and progress much faster with your language learning.
