Learn Chinese and Japanese by reading what interests you. HOW TO USE NOVLI: 1. Snap a photo of a Chinese/Japanese text you want to read. 2. Tap on words to instantly translate them and see pinyn/furigana. 3. Explore the other features: add to Anki style flashcards in a single tap, ask AI questions about the text, listen to your text. Novli works for images of textbooks, novels, social media posts, uploaded lecture notes, or any other Chinese/Japanese text input you need. We built Novli because when we were learning to read Chinese, it would always take ages to look up words, find their pinyin, and add to our Anki flashcards. Now we can do this all from Novli in a few taps. If you have feedback or questions, please feel free to email us at alexsimpson96@aol.com. This directly contacts the founder, and he will read every email :) (Note, we recently renamed from Readly to Novli. Same app, subscriptions and lesson history, just a new name) Privacy Policy: https://novli.app/privacy-policy.html Terms of Service: https://novli.app/terms.html
