Skritter vs Pinyinize

Practice Chinese writing with Skritter, whether you have a strong grasp of written Chinese and want to remember the characters better or are a beginner who doesn’t know where to start. Skritter has existed for more than 10 years, and for a good reason: our learners are amazing! They help us with feedback which allows us to create what we think is the best Chinese writing app out there! If you have seen Chinese writing before, you probably noticed that it requires us to learn characters rather than the roman alphabet we know from English. You can learn it through our “decks” (similar to a card deck) based on topics and difficulty. Popular Decks: - Ordering or making coffee or tea (so you can get your morning caffeine fix) - Chinese Stroke Order - HSK 1-6 & New HSK3.0 1-9 study decks - More advanced topics like Yoga and talking about your Emotions - The 16-episode Ultimate Chinese Character course First, you learn a character’s meaning, reading, and tone; then practice writing it! Before you know it, you’ll want to learn thousands of characters, and words like these two happy users: “If I could only keep one app on my iPod, this would be it without a doubt. Skritter will change your life!” ― Wendy Werneth, UN Translator “Learning to write characters has never been so fun. From writing zero to 2000+ characters in six months!” ― Brian Jackson, Economist Try our app and see for yourself why thousands of people use it every day. Have questions, problems, or feedback?

Are you studying Chinese and proficient in pronouncing PinYin, but don't ever see any Chinese writing with accompanying PinYin? Have you ever been in a Chinese restaurant, looking at the menu, and wishing you knew how PinYin of the dishes' names to be able to order them from your server in Chinese? Have you ever been in the taxi in China or Taiwan and needed to tell your driver the destination, with the address in hand, but you could not pronounce it? Well guess what - the struggle is over! With the PinYinize, you can use your camera turn Chinese characters into phonetic PinYin at your fingertips! Simply point the in-app camera to the Chinese text you are interested in, take a photo, and the app will automatically convert them into PinYin for you. What about those pesky characters that change in pronunciation based on the change in context? We've got you covered! The PinYinize will display the Chinese characters in your photo by grouping them in helpful boxes that identifies the pertinent context they are in, and helps you pronounce the characters accurately!
