New in 1.1:
• Real voices: Conrad (German) and Andrew (English) now read every word aloud, including all bonus words, plus every landmark fact.
• German word list checked against the dictionary: abbreviations, names and outdated forms are gone, and 38 levels were rebuilt.
• New in Settings: "Reset everything" clears progress, coins and streak and starts the journey over.
• Launch animation, how-to video with instructions in Settings, and the legal notice right inside the app.
