FreeSuper removes the ads and limits: $9.99 to $119.99 in Apple's US App Store, depending on the plan, after a 1-week free trial.

40 languages · offline lessons
13 of the 52 apps we cover list Latin; 10 of them have a free tier.
They are 6 course apps, 2 vocabulary apps, 2 apps for real video, text or audio, 1 AI conversation app, 1 tutor marketplace and 1 language exchange. One Latin course states how far it goes in CEFR levels: StoryLearning (A1 to A2). A course's level is what its lessons cover, not a level you are promised.
Varieties the courses name: Classical Latin (restored Classical pronunciation).
To practise with a person, italki lists Latin tutors, and on Tandem, free, your partners are other Latin learners, since no one speaks it from birth.
What a year of Latin costs
Every app that teaches Latin and sells a yearly plan, cheapest first, from the plans on each app's own pages. Not on it, because they sell no yearly plan in dollars: italki and StoryLearning.

How far each Latin course goes
Each app's Latin course as its maker describes it: the level it says the course reaches, and how big it is. It states a CEFR level. A course's level is what its lessons cover, not proof that you will reach it. Sizes are each maker's own measure (words, hours, lessons or units), so they cannot be compared directly. Read from each maker's pages on 14 Oct 2026. What the CEFR levels mean.
