User reviews

Very helpful with room for improvements

I’ve been using this app for a while to read Chinese literature and learn new vocabulary. I also bought the premium version because I think 4€ a month is still okay. However I wish that you could scan more than one page at once since I wanna have the whole article/ story in one scan. I think you also can’t merge two scans together? If I scan a double page at once, ai sometimes makes mistakes with the translation as it can’t see all words clearly. It would also be great if you can move already scanned texts into new folders to organise your learning material better. In the future I hope there will be better mistake analysis for the AI translation and maybe a few more functions. For example correction for your own written texts. Shorts videos or podcasts to improve listening skills or even Chatrooms. For now the app is already not bad…很不错~

Amazing app

I have lots of Chinese novels I want to read. Finally found one to help me read and learn! Love it!

Одно бесплатное сканирование

Не тратьте время. Дает одно бесплатное сканирование. И триал с последующей подпиской. Это точно не тот функционал, за который сразу платить.

Response from developer

Здравствуйте, извините за неудобство. Каждый раз, когда кто-то сканирует текст, переводит слово и т. д., это стоит мне денег. Я финансирую Novli из своих личных сбережений, поэтому мне нужно сделать приложение платным, чтобы покрывать расходы. Вы можете попробовать приложение бесплатно в течение 7 дней и отменить подписку в любое время без каких-либо затрат. Но если вам нужно больше времени, чтобы протестировать приложение, напишите мне на alexsimpson96@aol.com, и я с радостью дам вам 1 месяц Premium бесплатно. С уважением, Alex

大学生にとって神

中国語で拼音調べるのに苦戦してたけどこのアプリが勝手に拼音、日本語訳、辞書でニュアンス全てやってくれるからまじ助かる

惜しい

課金して使うにはAIの精度が低すぎて使い物にならないし、高すぎる。回答に1分とか遅すぎて待てないし、質問履歴(やり取り)は保存されないの深掘りしても残らないのは残念。
課金して使うには半額にしてAIの質を上げて、音声プレイにブクマつけて、再生速度つけてくれるとかじゃないと他のアプリから移る理由なくて課金したくないと思いました。 でも魅力的なアプリなのでお試し試してみようかな

Response from developer

こんにちは。 この度は貴重なご意見をいただき、誠にありがとうございます。また、ご不便をおかけしてしまい申し訳ございません。 1. AIの回答が遅かった点については、本来想定している挙動ではありません。通常はもっと速く回答できるはずですので、原因を調査いたします。もしよろしければ、アプリの設定画面にあるNovli IDを alexsimpson96@aol.com までお送りいただけますと、詳しく確認させていただきます。 2. また、AIの品質がご期待に沿えず申し訳ございません。日本語での説明品質は私にとって非常に重要ですので、今回のご指摘をもとに確認し、改善を進めてまいります。 3. 価格についてもご意見ありがとうございます。AI機能の運用には費用がかかっており、Novliは現在、私個人の資金で開発・運営しているため、運用コストを継続できる価格に設定しております。ただ、もしご予算的に難しい場合は、メールでご連絡いただければ、今回に限り何かできることがないか確認させていただきます。 改めまして、丁寧なフィードバックをいただき本当にありがとうございます。いただいたご意見をもとに、より良いアプリにできるよう改善してまいります。 Alex Novli開発者
