About

Pinyin Scholar helps you add pinyin to Chinese text quickly. Paste text, scan a page or photo, then view clear pinyin annotations with tone colors, review possible polyphonic characters, listen to Chinese text aloud, and export the result for study, work, or reference. Core annotation works offline with no app account, tracking, or ads. FREE FEATURES - Unlimited pasted-text annotation, local history and search. - Tone marks, tone numbers, IPA, and optional tone colors. - Review OCR text before generating pinyin. - Choose pronunciations for polyphonic characters. - Dictionary details, copy, system read-aloud, and image export. - Five confirmed single-page OCR scans per day. - Free PDF and editable RTF previews before choosing Pro export. PINYIN SCHOLAR PRO - Optional article and pronunciation-correction sync in your private iCloud database. - Multi-photo OCR and multi-page document scanning with page review. - A4 / US Letter PDF export with automatic pagination for long articles. - Editable Word-compatible RTF export. - Monthly, yearly, and one-time lifetime purchase options.

Eligible customers may receive a 7-day yearly-plan trial; after the trial, the yearly subscription renews at the price shown before purchase. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple account settings. Lifetime is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
