## What is Across?

Across turns one device into a two-person classroom.

Lay your iPad flat between you, or set a foldable down in tabletop posture, and the screen splits into two different halves. The tutor's half shows the answer key, the phonetic guide, hint and grading controls. The learner's half shows only the challenge, the answer canvas and a microphone. In Face-to-Face mode the learner's half is rotated 180° so you can sit across a table and both read upright.

THREE POSTURES, THREE APPS IN ONE
• Closed: daily spaced-repetition cards (SM-2), streaks and a 60-second rapid quiz.
• Open: a full analytics canvas with the active card, grammar and etymology notes, native-versus-you waveform comparison and an accuracy heatmap.
• Tabletop: an asymmetric two-player match with live scores, combos, hints and timers.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Pronunciation is graded with Apple's on-device speech recognition. Audio never leaves your device.
• All progress is stored locally with SwiftData; student names are encrypted with CryptoKit.
• No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no servers.

MADE FOR THE WHOLE ECOSYSTEM
• Apple Watch Tutor Remote: give hints, play the prompt and mark answers from your wrist.
• Live Activities and Dynamic Island show the scoreboard and turn timer.
• An interactive Lock Screen widget serves a Daily Challenge Word you can flip with a tap.

BUILT-IN DECKS
German, French, Spanish, Japanese and Arabic starter decks with phonetics, etymology, grammar notes and example sentences.

PRICING
• Try 3 full tabletop matches free, with every feature unlocked.
• Across Pro Lifetime: one payment, unlimited tabletop matches, all decks, Watch and widgets.
• Across Teacher Pack (yearly subscription): everything in Pro plus a JSON/CSV curriculum builder, classroom student profiles and offline PDF progress reports.
