User reviews

다 좋습니다. 프로 구독까지 했어요. 근데 한 가지 문제점이 있습니다.

카메라로 캡쳐하면 숫자를 인식을 못 합니다. 직접 입력해줘야 해요.
이것만 고쳐주시면 분명 최고의 어플이 될 겁니다. 참고로 저 일본어판도 구독했어요 ㅋㅋㅋ 일본어판은 숫자를 제대로 인식하는지 모르겠지만 우선 이것만 고쳐주시면 감사하겠습니다.

Response from developer

리뷰와 프로 구독 정말 감사합니다! 말씀해주신 카메라 캡처 시 숫자 인식 문제는 우선순위 높게 확인하여 수정하겠습니다. 일본어판에서도 같은 문제가 없는지 함께 점검하겠습니다. 앞으로도 중국어·일본어 학습에 도움이 되는 앱으로 계속 개선하겠습니다. 감사합니다!
