Pinyin Recognition
App looks great and runs smoothly, but the pinyin recognition really needs attention. Right now, only toneless pinyin is recognized as correct (i.e. “bu” instead of “bù” or “bu4” for 不). If this is fixed, Noodle could be a great alternative to Skritter.
Update: Pinyin recognition is better, but still not perfect (doesn’t recognize hui4 or zuo4 for 会 or 做 for example). Some definitions are pretty unhelpful for beginners, too (“small table” for 几...?)

Intuitive app for learning
Having so much fun learning Chinese characters with this app! So intuitive the way you can write out the characters on your screen. Don’t just learn the meaning, learn to write with Noodle😁
Looks well built but needs ipad + apple pencil support
Title says it all :)
Beginner friendly!
I’m just starting to learn Chinese. This app makes it really easy to learn how to write, enunciate, and use the word.
