could be improved by:
- randomization button that selects random hanzi within course selected (e.g. HSK1)
- method to translate phrase in its entirety instead of single character by character
- definition defaults to always showing english first
- the "?" page does not move off of the introduction page (others not viewable?)

Character strokes

Apple Pencil doesn’t work on some fields. The execution order of character writing doesn’t follow transnational Portocol. But over all VERY NICE

bad searching

even though its a dictionary FOR hanzi you cant even use hanzi to look up words and the most irrelevant words show up if you use pinyin
