Sound not working on iOS

Great app. Sound isn’t working on iOS, so I can’t hear the words.
Custom lists for characters would be amazing.

glitched

when pressing to see how to write a character, the “x” button and volume button are cut in half by the screen. it looked terrible and bothers me.

before pressing how to draw the character the functions are normal.

It’s pretty good but some things to note before downloading:

-audio doesn’t do anything (i’ve tried turning silent mode off as well)
-some pinyin translations are wrong
-the only functions it has is the english translation and handwriting practice which if it had more features like how it’s used in a sentence; that would be much more helpful

Нет аудио

Раньше пользовался, но теперь исчезло звуковое сопровождения. Без аудио - буду переходить на другое приложение. Хотя жаль!

Sound doesn’t work

This app seems good for learning words but the most important aspect, which is the sound function, does not work. You cannot listen to the pronunciation of the characters so that’s very unhelpful

Fast genau was ich suche

Absolut geniale App, vor allem, da sie kostenlos ist. Die Funktion zum lernen und üben der einzelnen Schriftzeichen sind toll.

Super wäre noch die Möglichkeit die Schriftzeichen in eigene Listen zu packen und eine Abfragefunktion für diese zu haben.

Great

Thank you for a very well thought app in terms of both layout and function, I can’t praise the developer enough.

so EASY TO USE!!!

i’m a native English speaker with a little previous experience exploring apps to improve my 重文 writing. this app is the easiest to use so far! just open, search for a word or phrase to practice, then start practicing! that simple! i recently deleted another app because for some reason it didn’t allow me to practice all the characters if a phrase. 😡

i LOVE LOVE LOVE that Daily Mandarin teaches you TRADITIONAL Chinese characters instead of only simplified! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

The best but where’s traditional?

I absolutely love this. I’ve been practicing daily so far. I’ve taken Chinese in college years ago and want to keep up with it so this is a huge help but this is simplified characters, I would like to switch to traditional and it’s killing me! Still 5 stars tho.

Useful But Not Always Right

Okay, this app is quite good because it has the stroke order to basically all of the words you would ever need to know. It is also ENTIRELY free, which is amazing! The only problem is that a few characters have wrong stroke orders. The stroke orders are only a bit wrong though, like two strokes are misplaced but that’s about it. For having no ads, being free, and including a lot of words, it’s worth the few mistakes.

Хорошее приложение

Свою функцию выполняет, но никак не могу подключить звук. Иногда очень не хватает произношения.

Pretty good, but beware of incorrect pinyin

I find this app quite helpful for learning/practicing writing characters. One thing I noticed however if that the pronunciation is not always correct when a character may have multiple pronunciations.

For example: from HSK1 level, 读 “to read” shows the pronunciation “dòu”, when it should be “dú”. “Dòu” is one way to pronounce the character, but not when referring to the verb “to read”.

I have found several examples of this problem for various characters in the app. So just be aware of that while using it. It would be great if the developers could resolve those issues.

Amazing!

I love this app, it helps me memorize all the Chinese characters!

genuinely good dictionary app

i made a funny acc on insta it is @dailymandarinfails because their writing practice is difficult on mobile devices

Best app for Mandarin

The BEST app!

great app!

i am learning mandarin and this is so helpful, it has all the stroke orders for any character i want to learn and it also shows the definitions. it has all the hsk levels with the words in that level too! very helpful for learning

Amazing

Amazing app to help write mandarin! I have learned so many words already

Very good app

Simple and effective to learn writing Chinese, and good vocabulary.
As you ask for feedback, I’d like to have the possibility to organize favorites (order, folders...)

Really helpful app!

I love this app- so helpful for memorising stroke order! It would be really helpful to be able to save characters into your own ‘collections’ though, rather than just favouriting some, as I’d like to be able to practice them in sets :)

best

this app is really useful , i think this app is the best application to learn new chinese character and easy to use , best application.
