Price

Why do I have to pay for everything? I can’t even simply watch videos with subtitles without paying a membership?

Response from developer

I’ve put a tremendous amount of time, effort, and resources into building this app. And I continue working on making it better every day. Just like everyone else, I need to make a living, and I believe that the work I do has value. That’s why some features require a subscription. It’s that simple.

Very good

I really enjoy using Lilu to learn Chinese! The app is fun, easy to use, and makes studying much more engaging. Everything is well-designed and convenient, and I especially love how easy it is to practice regularly. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn Chinese in a fun and simple way!
