User reviews

Excellent, but could be improved

A version with traditional characters would make this more useable for many students. Also, more characters should be added regularly.

Please keep updating!

This is a great app. I always come back to it. When someone asks me what’s a good app for learning Chinese I recommend this one. ζœ€ε₯½οΌ

Helpful in Learning Characters

This will not teach a person the Chinese language, but it makes a handy reference when one is working with pinyin and wants to see what the real words are. The progressive study has the worthy goal of quickly familiarizing a novice with Chinese text to make it less intimidating. The percentage learned status displayed here is deceptive, however. I have completed enough levels supposedly to be able to recognize over 60% of characters in typical text, but from my experiments with Chinese newspapers, it is closer to about 40%. The number of errors in the English text also increases in the later progressive lessons as if less proofreading were being done. An amusing example is where a bride is described as "newly web."

Great APP

One of my top 5 APPS
I like that it shows you stroke order, and the color code when you write a stroke in the correct order.
