User reviews

Redefining Chinese character input

Novel and fun approach to writing Chinese on a phone. With stroke shortcuts you can almost glide-type the characters.

This app gives you good combo of learning character strokes and being able to effectively input them. Looking forward to more supported characters and a system-wide keyboard.

New concept - Useful for Chinese learners

This is a brilliant way to drill the stroke order of characters if you a beginner Chinese learner or want to memorize them without using a pen and paper or pinyin keyboard. Found the app pretty intuitive to use, hope that more characters will be added soon. And also adding traditional characters in the future as well would be a good idea
