### 4/5 — So far best

*2026-05-27*

I like they keep simple. Tried a few others and the extra cartoons and animation make it too slow. Also can not stand having to unlock a level to proceed. Best way to memorize is to go back and forth on different words repeatedly. Only wish it would have both female and male voices in settings to toggle. Hen hao

### 4/5 — Limited

*2024-12-02*

Why should it be limited if it’s a language learning app

### 2/5 — Limited

*2023-11-13*

The app is limited

### 4/5 — Good, but can be improved.

*2022-02-10*

I really like this app, but I noticed that the word for zero “Líng” sounded kind of weird. The problem is that it seems to add an extra syllable, causing it to sound more like
 “lí-ung” instead of “líng” but overall, this is a good app.

### 4/5 — It okay

*2020-02-15, version 4.4*

It’s great I love this app but it’s not amazing there’s only a few problems.You have to sign up for pro to get lots of more words but other than that it’s amazing!

### 4/5 — 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻good

*2018-01-28*

Its good and has lots of helpful phrases but its a bit silly that u have to buy the rest , eight dollars is alot for just some words also my chinese tutor said that some words r a bit wierd. I dont know lots of chinese so idk which ones...... anyway. GOOD APP 
Just a few things to fix up

### 3/5 — Just okay

*2017-06-29*

It's pretty limited in what it offers. The food section e.g. is just a dictionary of food terms, not very helpful.

### 5/5 — Super helpful

*2016-11-22*

I love the apps from this developer. They've given me a great base in several languages. It's worth getting the payed version if you're traveling around China. It adds more sentences/vocabulary to each category. But the free version is fantastic.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2016-09-02*

It shouldn't have to pay to learn the everyday words etc 😖😖😖😖😖😖☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

### 5/5 — ~

*2016-08-04*

AMAZING app! This has really helped me improve on my Chinese! You guys should check out this app, and check out all their apps because it really helps!

### 5/5 — Helpful app

*2016-04-01*

Easy to use app with about 2000 words and phrases if you buy the in-app purchase. I like the ability to hear the words slowly, as well as normal speed.

### 4/5 — Great but....

*2016-03-29*

I love this app...well LOVED. I accidentally deleted it and now I try to download it off iCloud but it keeps telling me to update it but every time I press the update button, it doesn't work and keeps saying you have to update the app to purchase it. Please fix it, other than that, it is a great app. Xie xie!

### 5/5 — Quick an easy

*2016-01-10, version 4.2*

Exactly what I was looking for to help pronounce a Mandarin Chinese

### 3/5 — Ok

*2015-12-23, version 4.2*

Somewhat worthless for Taiwanese mandarine. Many of the words are different and you will end up speaking like one of the loathed mainland tourists

### 4/5 — Pretty good,but

*2015-11-13, version 4.2*

This app is great,but if it had traditional characters it would be much better.

### 1/5 — 收费

*2025-08-30*

更新后就成了完全收费软件了吗？unlock 页面右上角X键（取消键）完全没有用……为什么？

### 1/5 — Poor

*2023-09-22*

Used to be free to access. Now they all charge for it

### 1/5 — Who will pay

*2018-04-26*

Hi 
Stupid app
Don’t waste ur time on this
It’s also not for free
Ads also come
Do not download

### 1/5 — Not working any more

*2016-12-29*

Since last Ipad update my App has no sound. I deleted it and re-installed it but the bug remains. Same thing for the Cantonese app. Too bad

### 1/5 — Bad

*2016-07-29, version 4.4*

Hujova

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2014-11-30, version 4.0*

It crashes when it opens, there's no point of downloading it.

This app will not open.

### 1/5 — China

*2014-03-18, version 3.8*

It has stopped working?

### 1/5 — Lots of spelling mistakes

*2013-04-09, version 3.0*

Not correct mandarin....do not get this

### 1/5 — Just another phrase book app.

*2013-03-19, version 3.0*

This app is just another form of a phrasebook. Most of the free apps that I've seen are just this. 

They do not teach basic sentence structure or the basic pronunciations of the different sounds. 

I was looking at being able to learn Chinese not learn a few basic phrases.

### 1/5 — pro app

*2013-01-25*

its not free

### 5/5 — great

*2019-03-18*

i learned basic Chinese very well on this app, it helps a lot too with studying, but you have to pay for the rest of the words :/

### 5/5 — Nice

*2018-06-17*

Pretty cool innit

### 5/5 — I'm trying to learn Chinese

*2017-10-01, version 4.4*

It's a perfect app to learn Chinese, I'm just using it and this far it was so simple and handful,
I think it can be a translator and app to learn Chinese,
I traveled many times without this app and for people who this is their firs time you must have this app, because you can't find anyone who knows English easily, 
You need to know the basics words,

### 5/5 — You need it

*2017-07-03*

This app saved me in Beijing. Don't know how to talk to the cashier or waiter? Listen to how to say things a few times right before you walk into the door or up to the register ~ need to talk to the taxi driver but don't know how? Show him what you're trying to say. You're lost? Practice the phrases before walking up to someone and asking for help. Don't worry! It also works without wifi ~ This was a life saver on multiple occasions during my study abroad in China.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2017-06-11*

Fun to learn how to speak Chinese and very useful

### 5/5 — It's free

*2017-05-25*

Quick n easy to access, very helpful information.

### 5/5 — Extremely useful app

*2017-05-15*

Like all of the rest that they've put out. I've used Italian, German, French and now this.
