SPQR Latin for Android
I'm a Latin scholar and my main reason for buying this app is the fully searchable offline Lewis and Short dictionary. I love browsing through it at random, reading entries and the quotations given thereunder. The addition of authors is extremely welcome. It's wonderful to whip out my phone and start reading some Latin text while waiting in line or something. As a Cicero fan, I would REALLY urge the addition of the full works of Cicero. My own portable (and searchable) Cicero would be a dream come true. App needs a few minor pieces of work. In the first place, I can't manage to access the dictionary through the texts. My vocabulary is excellent but sometimes I do run into unfamiliar words or words that appear of ambiguous meaning and I would want to look them up. For some funny reason, on my Samsung S4, this doesn't work. Also, I don't like the way that the texts in Cicero are organised. The chapters of a work are all in the root window under the title of the text itself. This means that scrolling down from the Catilines to a chapter in the Pro Roscio takes forever. I'd appreciate a solution to this (and did I mention that I'd love the complete of Cicero?).
Easily the best Latin library you can get on your phone. It has a lot more works and classics than any other app I've seen
This app offers a ton of scripts in the original Latin wording, from Cicero to the Bible, it's a great reference for Latin students. The only con I have is the lack of landscape mode, overall, I can't recommend this enough!
Love the app. Would love it even more if it had De Natura Deorum Ciceronis, De Rerum Natura Lucretii!!! Cicero's De Re Publica would likewise be awesome. Overall, thanks for an excellent app!
Great app. Better than any free version. It has full texts by many Roman authors in the Latin. The flashcards appear thorough. Restores my faith in the modern world.
This it's proving to be a godsend in my Ovid class. I especially like the function where the app will generate vocabulary flashcards based on the text you're reading. Love it!
This app have a good dictionary and features like Latin learning, culture and more.
I'm a Classics MA student and this is a really great collection for on the go purposes. I just wish he'd release some of his other Classics apps on Android
App did not download when purchased. It says it was installed, but nothing is on my phone.
The BEST Latin APP ☆☆☆☆☆
I'm learning latin and just got to say I'm top of the class XD
Not up to senatorial standards - unable to understand numbers over 1,000
Top notch
The Define function doesn't work with my galaxy note 3. Please update.
Please please please ... allow the option to store as much as possible on the SD card. This app installs entirely into device storage, using more space than Facebook and Twitter combined. 272 MB !
I purchased this app mainly for the substantial corpus of texts and the excellent 'Define' feature; it is worth every penny, although I would like to see a bookmark feature.
<3 but it's too big to not have an SD card option.
Great app that flips between Latin and English and concurrent. All the classics in Latin and the complete bible by Jerome. Would like a pronunciation guide with all the meanings though.
Solid app with a good selection of features. The flashcard mode is a little bare bones, but does the job. Any chance of adding Lucretius' De Rerum Natura?
The define option works now! Absolutely phenomenal app!
It's simply excellent! Thanks a lot.
No SD card support.
Sometimes when I parse a word it doesn't show up on my Android app but it shows up on my friend's iPhone. It can be annoying at times when I'm trying to use the app in class.
It's slow and clunky. There should be an option to change it.
The define option works now! Absolutely phenomenal app!
Simple, lots of resources, simply wonderful!

By the way, I just discovered that the ENTIRE BIBLE can be read verse by verse in Latin or English by going to the AUTHORS heading, then scrolling down to Jerome.
Easily the best Latin library you can get on your phone. It has a lot more works and classics than any other app I've seen
It quits often, and the define feature and link to create flashcards dont work on my tablet.
The define option works now! Absolutely phenomenal app!
Well worth the price.

I would like to be able to re-order flash card decks so that I can revise better from the list. It's little things like that. Although helpful, it's not quite the best it could be.
I got this mostly for the flashcard facility, so that I could add the vocab I'm learning & test myself on it. But there's a wealth of other really useful stuff too. I can't get it to select a word in the texts for translation, but I think that might just be the tablet I'm using (Nexus 7). Really well put together.
Superb app! Amount of content is huge and features are great. I highly suggest it for anyone who needs or likes Latin

App is pretty amazing, having all of this text is incredible but the defining ability does not work on the Samsung s3. Please fix, it would be perfect
After using both, it is clear that iPhone version is superior, and has more features etc. Once bugs such as the look up feature on the texts, and grammar testing is added, then this will be well worth the cost Also the ui could do with some fixing up

This is the first app ever on which I have spent money, and it is worth every cent; it is absolutely amazing. This app allows me to freely fangirl over Latin, whether it is by reading the Bible in both Latin and English, searching up the countless words I inevitably forget, or studying grammar for Certamen. love this app so much.
