What's New in HSK4 Learn Chinese Chinesimple

12.1.0

May 5, 2026

• The new HSK 3.0 (2026) is getting closer We’re preparing Chinesimple for the next major HSK 3.0 vocabulary update. The new HSK 3.0 (2026) lists will replace the current HSK 3.0 (2021) lists, a transitional version that ultimately was never used in official exams. • New HSK 3.0 (2026) lists Many words will change level, and brand-new words never included in HSK before will also arrive. In addition, related content such as example sentences, lessons, and other study materials will be reorganized to better reflect the new vocabulary structure. • Your HSK 3.0 progress will adapt In the next app update, your HSK 3.0 progress will adjust to the new lists. Since some words and sentences will change level, your progress will adapt based on the content you have already completed. Your word lists will be kept, although words will show the level they currently belong to. • New content in preparation In this update, we’ve already added nearly 1,000 new native audios recorded by our team for words that will be part of HSK 3.0 (2026). We’re also creating new example sentences that we’ll add gradually to improve explanations and study of the new vocabulary. • New flashcards and visual improvements We’re creating new flashcard images for HSK 3.0 (2026) words and improving many current flashcards with a more polished style and a clearer representation of each meaning. Part of this improved content is already available in this update. • New HSK1 3.0 (2026) Guided Course We’re also working on the new HSK1 3.0 (2026) Guided Course, which is already well advanced. You’ll be able to enjoy this new course shortly after the new lists arrive, so you can study the new HSK1 with a clear, organized, step-by-step path.

Way overpriced

When I first started using these apps just a couple of years ago, lifetime access to the pro version was $15 - now it is $120! This price increase is exorbitant and the app is just not worth that much. There are so many better apps and websites available that provide so much more for so much cheaper. I would have happily paid up to $30 for lifetime access to this - but the current price is insane. And considering the free version content is so incredibly limited, not only will I not be paying for pro, I will not be using these apps to continue learning and when I talk to others about good apps, I will be telling them to avoid this entire series. Greedy, money grubbing, cash grab is all this is now. Update 5/4 - they stopped doing ad supported content, which means the free version has even less content than before. Reducing my rating to 1 star.

Response from developer

We understand your frustration and appreciate you taking the time to share your view. The \$15 lifetime pricing was part of an early launch phase years ago — since then, we've added a lot of new content and features. While the lifetime option is now less common, we offer monthly and annual plans that are very affordable — the annual plan, for instance, gives you 6 months free. As for the removal of ads, we did it to improve the experience. Many users couldn’t access ad-supported content at all, especially in countries like China or Russia. Now, that content is open for free — including stories, games, and basic exams — even without ads. Only lessons remain partially locked. We truly believe these changes make the free version more usable, not less. Still, we respect your opinion and thank you for giving our apps a try. 🐼

Dont buy it. Huge waste of time

Progress kept being erased with new updates without any way of retrieving it. Waste of my time and money.

Response from developer

We’re truly sorry for the bad experience you had 😔 This issue has now been fully solved to prevent any future data loss. We know how frustrating this was, and as a small gesture, we’d love to offer you a little gift to compensate for the inconvenience. Please write us at hello@khanjischool.com so we can send it to you directly. 🐯💙

Warning. !!!

Response from developer

Hi de WaveRide! Thank you so much for your kind words and feedback! 😊 We're really glad to hear you're enjoying the app. Regarding the color scheme in the word games section, we understand how the contrast between the green and white can be challenging. You might find the dark mode easier on the eyes—just head to the app Settings to activate it. Also, in the settings, you’ll find various customization options, like disabling the color of the pinyin, which could help further tailor the app to your needs. Your input is always appreciated, and we’ll keep working to make the app even better. Thanks again for your support and for sharing your thoughts!

Additionally, we regularly offer promotions with additional discounts. We value your feedback and hope you'll consider the full range of options and features we provide before making a final decision.
