## What is HSK Fish?

You have an HSK exam to pass. HSK Fish gets you there — a daily plan built around your exam date, and a quiz that drills all four exam skills every time you open it.

A QUIZ SHAPED LIKE THE REAL EXAM
Every quiz runs four parts, in order: Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking. You hear the word, you read it, you type it, you say it — the same word, four ways in one sitting. Recognition alone won't get you through.

BUILT TO PASS — NOT JUST "LEARN CHINESE"
Tell us your current level, target level, and exam date. You get a real daily plan, so you always know what to study today to be ready on time. Open the app and today's work is waiting.

EVERY LEVEL, EVERY WORD
The full HSK 1 through 6 vocabulary, with pinyin and native audio on every word, organized the way the exam tests them.

A WORD WITH NO SITUATION IS A WORD YOU'LL BLANK ON
That's why nothing here is a flashcard. Every question reaches you as a message from someone who wants an answer, so you meet the word inside the situation you'd actually use it in — and that's the version that comes back when a real person is waiting on you.

SPEAK IT — AND GET SCORED ON YOUR TONES
The speaking part wants your voice, not your keyboard. Say your answer out loud and get scored on the exact tone you missed, so the word you "know" doesn't stay unsayable.

REAL CONVERSATIONS DON'T WAIT
Every question runs on a 30-second countdown — the screen's own edge is the clock, draining from blue to amber to red. Nothing is taken away when it runs out; you see the answer and move on. Recall stops being something you dig for.

WE SAVE YOU FROM DOOM SCROLLING
Pick the apps that eat your day and the hours they should close. They stay shut until you pass a quiz — no timer to wait out, no button to dismiss. You get your phone back by learning something.

SEE THE WEEK YOU ACTUALLY DID
Every word you learn becomes a card on your board. Words you kept sharp change material; the rest of the week sits there locked and waiting. One screen, and you know exactly where you stand — a weekly goal you can see the shape of is a goal you actually finish.

SMART REVIEW THAT REMEMBERS FOR YOU
Spaced repetition brings every word back at the moment you're about to forget it. A mastery dashboard, a heatmap, and a score for each of the four skills show what's solid and what still needs work before exam day.

AND A REASON TO COME BACK TOMORROW
Studying earns coins, coins hatch eggs, and eggs become fish you collect across dozens of species. It's there because streak counters and guilt notifications don't work — this does. Your ocean also lives on your home screen as a widget, and a Live Activity slips a vocabulary card onto your lock screen, so a review fits into the ten seconds you'd have spent scrolling.

ALSO INCLUDED
• Leaderboard — add friends with a friend code
• Day streaks and collectible fish cards
• Full English and Bahasa Indonesia support

MADE FOR
• Students who need an HSK score for university, scholarships, or work
• Anyone who reads Chinese fine but freezes when they have to speak
• Anyone who opens their phone for one thing and loses the next hour

Passing HSK is hard because staying consistent is hard. HSK Fish gives you the plan, the drills, and a reason to show up tomorrow.
