## What is Kango?

Kango: Learn by reading

Learn chinese by reading your favorite classics, stories, and novels. Read by listening and taking notes with fun, educational stories. Kango provides an advanced reader to read, annotate, save, and narrate HSK graded stories, white papers, practical conversations, and your well-known classics. Original text in Chinese and its English translation can be read in parallel, sentence by sentence.

You can annotate the text with post-it notes, look up its dictionary meanings, look up its individual characters and replay the narration as many times as you like. You can also save your favorite sentences and pin it on your personal wall on the app. When you see a word you want to learn more about, you can also see how the word can be used in practical everyday, or business conversations, all through the Kango app.

Words that you save from a text get added to a quiz list and SRS flashcard system, where you can quiz yourself and see the sentence where the word appeared.

Kango comes with many custom configs. You can change the font family, size, toggle pinyin, display literal english meanings under each word, and group compound words visually together. When you're more comfortable with reading, toggle these options off to practice reading real-world text.

There are a wide range of classics, novels, short stories, white papers, and practical conversations on Kango to practice your listening and reading skills. You can also upload your own epub, or pdf books. Kango's short stories and conversations come bite-sized, so you can read and listen on the subway or during an evening run.

### 5/5 — Great conversations

*2026-04-27*

Just moved to US for work and this is helping me practice in different situations I don’t see in textbooks. Love it! Hoping the lessons get better

### 5/5 — I need this!

### 5/5 — Excellent real conversation practice

*2026-02-06*

Been using this for about 3 weeks to prep for work stuff. The scenario library is surprisingly specific—there's one for reviewing shareholder agreements where you practice with an AI acting as a legal advisor, and it walks you through ownership structure, veto rights, voting provisions. Used it before an actual investor meeting and felt way less lost.

Only gripe: wish I could adjust how fast the AI responds. Sometimes need a sec to think.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We're glad it helped you with your investor meeting. Noted your feedback on the speed of AI response. We've just pushed some updates that increases the speed of the AI response and would love for you to try it!
