Not free!!

I downloaded and finished the Shanghai part with all the top scores and I thought I would get a key to unlock the next content but no, I have to pay for it. I really hoped I would learn chinese finally in a game way because other apps are all the same, drilling you all the time. I get bored so easily. So I’ve deleted your app already. It’s good app. I expected more from it though.

Great Tool for Prepping HSK Testing

I used this to prep fro the HSK 3, and it really quickly got me up to speed. I passed the reading section with high marks, 80% of my reading study time was with this app.
