About
PinyinIQ helps you read Chinese with confidence by placing accurate, editable pinyin beside the original characters.
Start with text, a document, an image or your camera. PinyinIQ recognises the Chinese, generates pinyin, and keeps the original characters visible for natural reading.
DOCUMENT TO PINYIN
Paste text or import supported documents and images. Review the result word by word, correct uncertain readings, then save or export a polished pinyin-assisted document.
LIVE LENS
Point the camera at printed Chinese to see pinyin while you read. Single Line mode helps you focus on one line, and the reading area can be adjusted for the page in front of you.
OFFLINE DICTIONARY AND PRONUNCIATION
Search Chinese, pinyin or English. Hear Mandarin pronunciation, inspect Simplified and Traditional forms, bookmark useful words and create learning cards.
YOUR READING LIBRARY
Keep readings, cards and bookmarks together. Resume documents, organise learning material and delete individual items whenever you choose.
READ AND LEARN YOUR WAY
Choose reading preferences and visual themes, practise tones and pinyin, review flashcards, and use handwriting recognition to look up a character.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Core recognition, pinyin generation, dictionary lookup and saved content stay on your device. PinyinIQ 1.0 requires no account and contains no advertising, tracking or analytics.
