About

Point your camera at Chinese and read it. Live Pinyin writes tone-marked pinyin right above the characters while you look at them — no typing, no cropping photos, no waiting. WHAT IT DOES • Pinyin over every line the camera sees: textbooks, menus, signs, labels • Works with Simplified and Traditional characters • Freeze the picture to study it: pinch to zoom, tap a line to enlarge it • Copy a line as pinyin, as characters, or both • Save pages with the pinyin on them and open them again later • Share a page with the pinyin printed on it • Make the pinyin bigger or smaller READINGS THAT MAKE SENSE Many characters change their sound with the word they are in. Live Pinyin reads whole words, so 银行 comes out yín háng, not yín xíng. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Recognition runs on your device, and your pictures never leave your phone. No account, no sign-up, no ads. Available in 32 languages — pick yours in Settings, whatever your phone is set to. FREE AND PAID 30 minutes of live camera time are free, and the demo and your saved pages always stay free. One small one-time purchase unlocks unlimited camera time. No subscription. Questions or ideas? ios-app-contact@bechample.com
