It is the exact same. But one questionable sticker is the literal benoftheweek one. Love it though, really nostalgic and adds some fun into learning. ### 5/5 — FUN for the whole family *2017-01-12, version 1.5* Downloaded for my children and now I'm learning due to the engaging nature of the game! ### 5/5 — Me and My Child. *2016-12-10, version 1.5* Great product, helping me to learn Chinese as my daughter learns. ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-11-27, version 1.5* Fun little games with pronunciation of the word in mandarin and pictures in English. Works on repetition without having to do the same thing over and over again. ### 5/5 — Engaging *2016-03-26, version 1.5* This is a fantastic way for kids to younger children to learn Mandarin, or any language! I hope they make one for Japanese soon. ### 5/5 — Love! *2016-01-03, version 1.5* My child loves this app and has learned so much that her teacher claims that my kid sounds like a native speaker. ### 5/5 — Just starting out... *2015-12-27, version 1.5* We have just started this game, but so far I truly love it! It really is fun and engaging, and I like that it teaches pronunciation and writing too. ### 4/5 — Great *2015-11-05, version 1.5* I am adopted and I am in America, I was adopted when I was almost two, so I didn't learn any of my language, now that I'm a teen I really want to go to my home country to see if I can find my parents, but I want to learn Chinese to be able to talk to them ### 5/5 — For adults also! *2015-09-02, version 1.5* I'm 24, trying to learn mandarin and this is a real fun app :) not just for kids! ### 5/5 — Great! & My 4yr old is actually learning! *2015-05-10, version 1.5* I bought this app for my 4 yr old so she could learn Chinese w/ me and she loves it! At first I thought she was just pushing whatever she wanted, but now I watch her play after about a week or two and she can actually distinguish the numbers. Definitely going to get the full package! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t support family sharing *2021-08-12, version 1.7.34* I got the full pack, downloaded it on my kid’s iPad and cannot get it unlocked even though it says in the App Store that it supports Family Sharing. A waste of money. The background music can be quite annoying and loud. ### 1/5 — Does not work with the new OS update. *2017-10-28, version 1.5* We purchased the full version and barely used it for two months before it stopped working after the OS updated for iPad. All the other apps that needed updates were updated promptly except this one. ### 1/5 — No longer works with iOS 11 *2017-10-06, version 1.5* Contacted support and still haven't heard anything. App needs an update to support iOS 11. Wasted money buying full version and no longer works for my son. ### 2/5 — Movie part doesn’t work *2022-07-24, version 1.7.34* Overall ok app to learn Chinese. I purchased the app and found the movie doesn’t work - There’s only sound with black screen. ### 2/5 — The music is so loud can't hear the Mandarin words well *2020-04-24, version 1.7.34* We can hear the Mandarin words because the music is really loud, I couldn't find a way to turn it off. Also, sound is not working on my iphone 10s ### 3/5 — Sound balance is off *2022-01-29, version 1.7.34* The music is so loud that it drowns out the voice in the games so it’s difficult to hear the words being taught. We paid for the premium version and I found the games to be too repetitive to be engaging for my kids (ages 3 and 5). ### 3/5 — Missing sound from the apps *2021-11-25, version 1.7.34* We really love allthe features but sometimes the sound is completely missing , how can we fix this.??? ### 3/5 — Background music *2020-03-20, version 1.7.34* The background music to sooooo LOUD!!! I want to turn it off, but there is no option. Could you please turn it down? It is too difficult to hear the Mandarin words! ### 3/5 — No longer works with update to iOS 11. *2017-09-27, version 1.5* It’s very good software for kids to learn Chinese when it was working. Unfortunately it no longer work after I updated to iOS 11. There was a warning while still under iOS that it will not work in iOS 11, feedback was given on the app Facebook page. Support claimed it works with iOS 11 but turns out it does not. ### 3/5 — Good but...... *2017-05-29, version 1.5* I would really like to purchase all the lessons but apple is telling me the developer needs to update because it's. I longer compatible with apples updates. Please update so I can purchase the lessons for my kids! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — We are big brains *2020-07-26, version 1.7.34* We are a very smart family now that we now some words we are big brains and hope this was very helpful I know it was ### 5/5 — Good *2019-10-20, version 1.7.34* Thank you for making this game I am learning so much ### 5/5 — Repetition is key *2019-01-18, version 1.7.34* This app makes the necessary repetition for vocabulary building most enjoyable! The use of pictures and lack of translation also teaches the language without that pesky 3rd step that slows down language learners-translating is not the best way to learn! Especially for children! This is worth the cost. Moving to the next level of sentence structure needs another app. ### 5/5 — WOW !! *2018-12-14, version 1.7.34* I Started learning on this app just a an hour ago, and it’s working fantastic, I feel confident in such a short amount of time. Fun and easy to use and learn with. ### 5/5 — Great app *2018-04-14, version 1.7.34* A very inexpensive way to learn some basic mandarin! I love it and so does my daughter! ### 5/5 — Great app! My daughter loves it! *2017-09-20, version 1.5* Hope a 64bit version will be released soon! Doesn’t work with iOS 11 yet. ### 5/5 — Great App *2017-05-15, version 1.5* Great app! I love the fun way it introduces the language, it's simple and the graphics are very inviting. It's a simple way to create a strong and fun foundation for a language. You can apply this format to any language and it would work! ### 5/5 — This app helps me to teach Chinese! *2017-02-16, version 1.5* I started to use this app since 2016 and I have asked all the parents to get this app for their kids. In-between lessons they can play different games and they can show me the progress. Students are learning fast while having a good time! ### 5/5 — Great app for the whole family!! *2017-02-13, version 1.5* We are using it to learn together! ### 5/5 — Very fun play while learning Mandarin *2017-01-21, version 1.5* My daughters loved the game because it was very playful and relaxed. The funniest part was the catching of numbers and the stickers. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
