Not enough instructions

There aren’t enough instructions on how to go about using the app. I didn’t know what I should be doing. Unfortunately, need to delete.

Very nice app

This app has helped me advance my Zhuyin as well as more easily map out mandarin pronunciation. Highly recommended to learn Zhuyin via this app!

Great Zhuyin practice

One of the few Zhuyin apps out there. Considering it’s a free app, more features get added over time that make the learning patterns set in

Definitely helps learn bopomofo

In learning bopomofo, I keep coming back to this app. As it’s the only one I enjoy. However, the controls remain unintuitive and transitions slow between learning stages. While the direct learning is great, the functionality requires clarity, bigger buttons, more promptness in changing or rendering. I’m hopeful for the programs future.

An excellent way to practice

The app says to use for 5 minutes a day and after two weeks, you’ll know bopomofo. This is true. I’ve only been doing the exercises for three days and I read bopomofo/zhuyin much quicker than ever before! It is a very useful learning tool. I recommend it for anyone who wants to know zhuyin/bopomofo better.

The only thing is that the review feature (under the glasses icon) doesn’t seem to work properly. I can’t find a record of the words/sounds I have seen in the game. There’s just a list of words that say “0 views”
