Much better than Duolingo and other popular alternatives I’ve tried. It’s also quite snappy though there are a few bugs with the text blocking being misaligned. Sometimes the choose the correct text doesn’t make sense because without tapping the hidden text both options are fine and impossible to tell from context alone. Maybe I’m doing that exercise wrong but it seems like a bug. Otherwise great app! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re really glad to hear that the lesson structure and review system are helpful. We’d love to better understand the issue you mentioned. Could you contact us at nihao@chineseskill.com with a few more details, and screenshots if possible? This would help us investigate and improve it.
