iPad landscape mode bug
There’s a big when using this app in landscape mode on the ipad. It zooms in to part of the view and I can’t see the necessary prompts.
Misleading!! Need to pay monthly subscriptions to unlock each list
A lot of the lists are monthly subscription based in order to unlock them. And how long that list gets unlocked depends on how much you pay. For example, you pay $x.xx /month for 1 month. Or $y.yy /month for 6 months. Or $z.zz /month for 12 months (Max). So it’s not permanently unlocked. Only 5/63 =~ 8% of the lists are unlocked! And these free lists have average of only 10-20 words only!! Over 92% of the lists are locked!! And you have to unlock each list individually!! So you can’t pay a one time monthly fee and unlock all the lists. Each list needs to be paid separately!! That is crazy ridiculously expensive!! I’m sure you can pay for a better app that costs less than this.

So far so good!
I’m really enjoying this app so far and I’ve noticed it’s helped me learn some characters I was struggling with previously just with Anki. Honestly it helps me to write out the character a lot!
Only reason I can’t give it five stars right now is that even though I purchased a subscription to access all of the lists, I can’t access these lists across my devices. Like my iPad for example where it’d be way easier to practice writing the characters with my Apple pen. But every time it shows the lock icon and says I already have a subscription. I tried to redownload this app hoping it’d help but it still gives me the same issue.
It’d be nice if we could have an account to login to so I could access the lists across all my devices.
Other than that it’s great!

Very helpful but there are many problems
I love how the app comes with a lot of free features and allows you to practice strike order and memorize chinese characters but there are many problems that I hope the app makers can fix. Things like not saving your progress, not having a choice between simplified and traditional chinese, etc.
TRADITIONAL CHINESE
TO SWITCH TO TRADITIONAL CHINESE YOU HAVE GO TO THE SETTING APP AND FIND THE APP AT THE BOTTOM OF THE APP LIST 🥰
Almost there
Only thing missing is to have the personal study-list sync between your iPhone and iPad.
Glitch problem??
I don’t know if anyone else is experiencing this problem but I just redownloaded the app on a new phone (iphone Xs) and when I edit a deck to add more words my screen glitches and closes down the app... I really love this app and I want to keep using it but I literally can’t anymore :(
Great for 简体字!
I learned Chinese in Taiwan. Consequently, simplified characters were a bit of a mystery to me—especially stroke order. With the advent of computers and personal devices, my writing had become so rusty, I was searching for something to refresh my memory so I can write by hand well again. Noodle is fantastic for helping me a) to brush the rust off my writing in general, b) to learn simplified stroke order, c) to really -learn- just about any characters I want to put in my list, reading, writing, pronunciation, and meaning—all in one simple, free app.
Wishlist: 1) option to study BOTH traditional and simplified 字. 2) ability to export/share/airdrop lists.

I feel compelled to create my first review.
I’m so happy that this app provides such a plethora of words that are covered in HSK I-VI. It is also very competitive in that it does not have ads which breaks the immersion in some other Chinese learning apps.
Traditional Character
The app is great if you need it for Simplified Character, but I need Traditional Character。☹️
