User reviews

Studying abroad in Taiwan-highly recommend!!

I liked this app because it has useful vocabulary and learning devices that have made my study abroad in Taiwan so much easier.

A Fun and Engaging Manga-Style Mandarin Chinese Graded Reader App!

I've tried and used a number of language apps, but this one really stands out for a few key reasons. What I enjoy most is the short story format, which makes learning feel natural and engaging rather than repetitive or dry. I find the stories themselves interesting, well-written, and often cute, which keeps me motivated to keep going.

I also really appreciate the use of traditional characters alongside pinyin and English translations. It helps me improve my reading skills while also understanding the structure and meaning behind each sentence. The audio recordings are another big plus; they’re clear and spoken at a natural pace with different speed options depending on the listener's skill level, which is great for improving listening comprehension and pronunciation.

Overall, this app strikes a great balance between being fun and educational. It’s definitely one of the most enjoyable ways I’ve found to build my language skills!

Very useful app for self learners

As the title indicates, this app is very helpful for ppl who r self learning Chinese, both traditional and simplified. Stories are original n interesting and you can repeat the stories with different levels to improve your grammar and vocabulary range.

Engaging

Good app. I was using LingQ before for learning Mandarin, but this app is more engaging with the visual stories. I like the dictionary function too

New fun ways to learn!

I love that lessons are arranged in interesting conversation with manga style. It helps me remember vocabulary easily. Also the study section provides all kinds of ways to practice like hand writing. The words are presented in both traditional and simplified version which saves me lots of time. Lastly, each word has the label of HSK level, which is also very helpful for someone preparing the test. Overall it's for someone who wants to learn Chinese the fun way but also wants good quality of material.
