First-rate Content

This App has a marvelous collection of short stories in Simplified/Traditional Chinese. Each story has all the basics: vocabulary, grammar, audio, and a comprehension quiz. The stories are fun to read and are available in several levels. I would highly recommend these stories to anyone studying Chinese. Really a good value!

Cannot access purchased content

Cannot open a recent purchase, cannot access content from the beginner, elementary and intermediate apps as they no longer work. Beware of purchasing stories through this company

Good stories but needs log-in

The previous version let users read sample stories, but the revised app users need to log in first before you are able to access any books. The registration is slow and needs an email address. Furthermore, you need a net connection to access the books, which defeats the point of a stand-alone book. Audio quality on the read books varies; some are very good, but others are horrible. This had been a good app, it is too bad they wrecked it for the casual user.
