Très dommage!!!

Très bonne appli pour ceux qui étudient le chinois, malheureusement il faut la réinstaller plusieurs fois par jour car elle finit toujours par planter lorsqu’on la laisse en arrière plan et ne veut plus redémarrer. De même si on l’arrête, elle ne redémarre plus. Il faut la supprimer de l’iPhone et la réinstaller. Heureusement les données sont sauvegardées sur iCloud. 5 étoiles sinon.

Nice

Nice

App won’t open

Every time I try opening the app it will close immediately. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still doesn’t work.

Response from developer

Hello. Thank you very much for reporting this and very sorry for the inconvenience. We have fixed the issue and the app should be working again now.

Une bonne app

Cette appli est superbe mais il y a parfois des choses qu'on ne comprend pas très bien...

Application trop instable

J utilise cette application sur une tablette Ipad. L application saute plusieurs fois par jour, il faut la re installer à chaque fois. Très contraignant.

Response from developer

Bonjour. Merci pour ce retour. On vient de faire une grosse mise-à-jour dans le but de régler les plupart des bugs. Donc normalement ça devrait être beaucoup mieux désormais !

Crashes since new update, good otherwise

App function is great, but all camera functions instantly crash the app

Response from developer

Hello. Thank you very much for reporting this issue. This was fixed in the latest update!

Excellent translator/ speech pronounciation

Help learn Pin Yin (Beijing)Mandarin speech pronoun ciation and learn Chinese words. No wifi needed since app is language preloaded.

Best app ever for Chinese/ Mandarin help

I’m a student and I’ve been struggling trying to learn Chinese while studying other classes. Quite honestly the best app I’ve ever used and it does crash but barely and it found every character I needed to find. I will be buying the unlimited and I believe you should too. The one time fee is definitely worth and helping the developers for their great work.

Very good for learning

This is the best dictionary I use and am glad it can split screen. But one thing for sure, there are a few more words that doesn’t have a English dictionary meaning for it. And can we get the translator improved too? I’d pay for the one-time premium package to help and support you ;w;

Very useful to complement Mandarin studies

I don’t use all the features of HanYou, but those I do use are a massive help in my homework and revision study for Mandarin. Especially the character recognition through the camera and the drawing pad. The dictionary is comprehensive and the handwriting stroke order information can all be found very easily from the character recognition.

I’d definitely recommend to have this this app on your phone if you’re studying Mandarin!

App currently crashes when opened to camera :(

Hope the devs see this, but the app crashes on my phone as soon as it launches and begins trying to process characters. If I cover the camera and switch to another mode, then it turns out ok, but since I got this app specifically for the camera mode this is a bit of a dealbreaker. Not sure if it’s just my device but hope it gets resolved soon! Otherwise great app.

Edit: The developers have been extremely helpful in trying to track down the issues, best experience I’ve ever had with an app dev. Updating the rating as they find the problem, and in the meantime still good to use the image upload vs live camera recognition!

Hi Vincent. Thank you very much for reporting this bug. We are investigating the issue now but we have trouble to reproduce it. Would you mind send us more details (like a screen recording?) at feedback.ios@yomiwa.net please? Thank you very much.

Awesome except for one thing

My only complaint is that the text analyzer glitches once you go past a certain number of lines/characters. Same problem with Yomiwa. Please fix, otherwise great!

Response from developer

Hello, thank you very much for your review. We will look into the bug you are referring to. Could you please send us an example of a text that makes this problem occur? You can send it to us at feedback.ios@yomiwa.net. Thank you very much! Edit: Problem solved in the latest update :)

Nice, but...

... too many updates.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. We have diminished the number of updates. We would really appreciate if you can please update your review.

Super

Très bonne appli pour apprendre le chinois

Fantastique

Dictionnaire très complet et intuitif. La reconnaissance optique marche aussi super bien.

App works great since bug fix!

I love this app and recommend to all my friends. There was a bug last week and after reaching out to the developers they responded immediately and fixed it!

Response from developer

Hello Stephanie. Yes! The update with the fix is available now. Hope it works! Edit: Glad to hear the bug was fixed for you. Good luck with your learning!

Very useful app to learn Chinese

Hanyou really helps me increase my vocab in Chinese. Not only I learn the meaning of new words, but I get the pronunciation too. Flash cards are useful too

Awesome

It literally has all the essential features for studying Chinese. Keep up the hard work developers, you guys are doing great

Nothing special

I never did too much on it, it does not offer much. Download ChineseSkill instead if you want to learn Chinese.

Response from developer

Edit: Hello again. We are still concerned about your experience with the HanYou app. We would be very grateful if you can give us some hint about what you think is missing in the app. Please feel free to contact us at hanyou@yomiwa.net. Thank you very much. Previous reply: Hello. Thank you for your review. Following your comment, we have tried your recommended app which is a nice and fun learning app. But let's be honest, this can't be used as a dictionary at all. HanYou is a Chinese dictionary, as specified in the title, not another random colourful game-based learning app. Maybe this does not bring enough fun for you, ok, but please refrain from misleading other users. Of course, we are aware HanYou is not perfect and we are working hard to improve it. Today we have just released a new update which improves the overall app. And we will continue to add more features in the following updates.
