It's really happening! We're kicking off the first beta tests for the new Lingscape app. Unlike before, the app isn't being developed natively for iOS and Android, but is based on the cross-platform framework Flutter.

🚧 Service-Skeet 🚧 We are currently experiencing issues with the Lingscape server. The app and web platform are not functioning properly. We are investigating the issue and hope to resolve it soon. However, it’s the weekend, and IT is not in service, so it may take some time.

Spread the word. An der @hhu.de startet im Wintersemester 2026/2027 unser neuer Studiengang Digital Cultures!
