## What is Maylee?

American Mahjong, beautifully made.

Every tile in Maylee was hand-illustrated, drawing inspiration from our favorite Chinese porcelain - Rose Medallion and Bok Choy! Each tile is an original piece of art, because we believe the game deserves to look as beautiful as it feels to play.

Perfect for beginners!

Never played before? Maylee's gentle tutorial walks you through everything you need to know - the tiles, the Charleston, calling, exposures, and how to read the card! So you can learn one step at a time, without the pressure! 

Practice whenever you want - No wifi needed! Whether you're between club games, traveling, or just can't find a fourth, Maylee is always ready to play.

Everything you need to enjoy the game - 

• Official 2026 Cards
• Maylee Cards designed for new players
• Daily challenge hands
• Hand hints to guide your strategy

Play 2 free games per day or subscribe for unlimited play!

Maylee was made by two sisters who love mahjong and wanted something truly beautiful to play on their phones! We hope you love it!

### 5/5 — Best App for Learning

*2026-07-27, version 1.46*

This is my favorite app by far for mahjong.

### 5/5 — Best Mahjong App

*2026-07-27, version 1.46*

I became so much better at playing Mahjong and winning by playing this app. Yearly cost is reasonable too.

### 5/5 — I LOVE THISSS

*2026-07-24, version 1.45*

This is my fav app ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

### 2/5 — App is frozen

*2026-07-22, version 1.45*

It was working, now the app is stuck on the Charleston .  What do I do?

### 5/5 — Fun & Helpful

*2026-07-13*

I took lessons to learn Mahjong and use this app to keep up and help learn the card. I’ve gotten pretty good at deciding the right hands because of Maylee’s “percentage to Mahjong” feature, which I use to double check my decisions as a beginner & I can now use the app without having my card on me. I love this app!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind review!! We are so glad you're enjoying the app and it's helping you learn the card! Happy mahjong!!

### 1/5 — Hard on the eyes

*2026-06-23, version 1.42*

I thought the tiles were nice but the pink background and the very small tiles were just too hard on my eyes and I couldn’t find any other ways to change selection of tiles and or background

### 5/5 — Great learning game

Using this to help me after recently taking lessons. It has been really helpful to learn the rules

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for playing Maylee and for taking the time to leave us such a kind review! We are so glad you're enjoying the app and that it's helping you learn the rules!!

### 3/5 — Only 1 free game

*2026-06-17*

I am enjoying playing and learning Mahjong with Maylee. Unfortunately I only get one free game per day. This is very disappointing. At first I thought I did something wrong, but I confirmed that I had used 0 of 2 games. After I played one game, game showed that I had played 2 of 2 free games.

**Developer response:** Hi Carolina66!! Thank you so much for making us aware of this issue! We have fixed the game tracking bug in our latest update! Happy mahjong!!

### 4/5 — Best option BUT

*2026-06-10, version 1.39*

Please add:

-Tile sounds and sounds for different actions (like when someone swaps a joker or wins)

-Optional music

-Different tile options

### 5/5 — Beautiful!

*2026-06-07, version 1.39*
