It is essential that you do not delete iMCards on your iPhone / iPod touch. Just install the update over the current version. Like in all other applications all user data get lost when the application is deleted. So you will loose all your imported lessons.
We work on a solution for this 'feature' of the iPhone. One of the next versions will provide a backup of all lessons.

IMCards Lite is free and the only limitation is that the import of bought or self created lessons is not possible. The application includes the complete Basic German vocabulary and many examples. Furthermore there are a lot of free lessons for download available. Due this you are able to test all features.
When you like the program and you want learn other lessons, you have to buy the full version for $ 5,99 from AppStore. With this you are in the position to learn also with bought lessons.
There is a PC program to create own lessons, it's PrismaCards. It is Shareware and you are able to test all features.

With the programs at the PDA it is possible to create and edit flash cards,, but at the PDA that is not very effective. You can bye some of the additional data bases with flash cards for different languages and topics.
