Leben in Deutschland. Test
The task
I took the German citizenship test myself and found that the apps for it were either full of ads or paid. So I made a free one, where every question comes with a clear explanation, with no ads and no subscriptions.
Role
Idea, design, development, backend, App Store release
What I did
- Design and development for iPhone and iPad: a daily study plan and every question from the official catalogue with an explanation of the right answer, a translation and German read-aloud.
- Spaced repetition and smart review of mistakes and bookmarks, and a mock exam like the real one: 30 general questions and 3 about your federal state in 60 minutes, with the timer on the Lock Screen as a Live Activity.
- Vocabulary with translations and pronunciation, widgets for the Home and Lock Screen, Control Center buttons, reminders, Siri and Shortcuts.
- Optional sign-in with Apple or Google to sync progress between iPhone and iPad, also after studying offline, with account deletion inside the app.
- Interface in 17 languages, including right-to-left Arabic, Persian and Dari, plus everything for the App Store release: screenshots, texts, privacy.
Result
Released on the App Store in 2026 and free for everyone, with no ads and no subscriptions.
