Here are just some of the features:

- Parse any Latin word to English, regardless of conjugation - includes full breakdown of the word's form.
- Full copies of classic texts in their original Latin, grouped either by author or genre, including: the Gallic War and Civil War by Julius Caesar, Res Gestae by Augustus, the Twelve Caesars by Suetonius, the Amores by Ovid, the poems of Catullus, the Aeneid, Georgicon and Eclogues by Virgil, Pliny the Elder and Younger, the Metamorphoses by Apuleius, five landmark speeches by Cicero (including In Verrem!), plus Horace, Juvenal, Vitruvius and more!

SPQR Latin Dictionary and Reader Reviews

Crashes repeatedly

Lara Sowell on

United States

I have been using this app on my iPhone almost daily for about ten years. The last few months, the app crashes when I go to the dictionary. I have uninstalled and re-installed the app, looked for an update, and tried to locate contact information for the developer to no avail. Could you please fix it?

Love it, but please try to fix the bug!

THE EDGE ROCKS!!!!!! on

United States

This the most used and appreciated app on my phone. It’s really remarkable in breadth and depth, but as others have noted, the app has recently started crashing whenever I click on one of the Lain authors. Deleting and re-downloading the app did not help.

Needs updating

Tagni 2 on

United States

The basic function of the dictionary works, and it is very good however, the app will intermittently crash in other functions.

5 stars for the old days

Yomerodakh on

United States

This app seems dead. Crashes to home screen any time you try and click an author. It’s a 1 star rating for this, but I’m giving it 5 stars as a legacy rating for well over 5 years of excellence when it did function properly.

Formerly Great App Lost its Library

maniguydude on

United States

Title says it all. SPQR until recently was a fantastic collection of Latin literature that also included a useful dictionary functionality. The dictionary still works but any attempt to open one of the works by the Latin authors causes the app to crash. I infer that the developer has fallen behind on maintenance for compatibility with iOS updates

Crashes repeatedly now

Lara Sowell on

United States

I used to love this app and used it almost daily. Now it crashes every time I try to use it. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it. That did not help. I cannot figure out how to contact the developer, so I decided to write this review to bring awareness to the issue.

This is your app, amici

HjFUN on

United States

I used this app to supplement 2 years of college Latin and 10 years later it is still a source of interest and fascination. A specific benefit is that the parser search result are easier to parse than other parsing Latin search engines.

Not Optimized for iPad mini6

Jun Chen in May on

United States

There're two large blank or black bars on the top and bottom, which makes a substantial waste of the screen. More importantly, there's no way to take notes, for example, highlight and underline, while reading the texts. It has been more than 5 years, I believe, since the app's release and there's still no way to take notes. The content is good but what makes me want to use the app rather than to read my Latin paperback?

Broken
