HaoSay
Read full descriptionHide full description
HaoSay is a Chinese speaking practice app built around curated city scenarios. Instead of only memorizing words or repeating fixed sentences, you practice Mandarin through guided city scenes, character roleplay, and real conversation tasks designed by HaoSay. Step into Shanghai, Chengdu, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and more. Order coffee, ask for directions, bargain, travel, chat with locals, and handle everyday moments in Chinese. What you can do with HaoSay: Talk with characters such as baristas, drivers, shop owners, travelers, and local residents. Practice in city scenes including cafes, metro stations, shopping streets, night markets, teahouses, and startup spaces. Use photo vocabulary to learn Chinese words from objects around you. Save useful words to your word bag and turn them into spoken mini dialogues. Practice freely with Aocheng, your Chinese speaking partner. Get feedback that helps you speak more naturally. HaoSay is built for learners who want to actually speak Chinese, not just study it. It helps you build confidence through short, useful, culturally grounded conversations. Your practice inputs, photo vocabulary results, and saved word cards are used for your private learning experience, not as public community posts. HaoSay includes free access and optional HaoSay Plus subscriptions. Plus opens the first three city routes, adds unlimited Aocheng chat and unlimited energy, adds more word expansion and mini dialogue practice, and gives you a larger word-card pocket. Later cities still unlock through route progress. HaoSay may request access to microphone, speech recognition, camera, and photo library features for speaking practice, photo vocabulary, and avatar setup. The app includes a Report & Safety entry for reporting unsafe content or behavior. Privacy Policy: https://haosay.chat/privacy Terms of Service: https://haosay.chat/terms

CodeCub teaches you Python in tiny, deterministic lessons — then makes sure you actually remember it. WHAT IT DOES • Bite-size Python: 54 hand-written lessons across 10 tracks, each just a few minutes long. • Real, instant checks: predict the output, fill the blank, order the lines, or pick the answer — graded on-device, deterministically. No AI guessing, no running your code. • Spaced repetition that works: a true SM-2 scheduler brings each concept back exactly when you're about to forget it, so it sticks for good. • A real path: lessons unlock in order as you master their prerequisites, from print() all the way to classes and regex. • Streaks, XP and a daily review reminder to keep the habit going. FREE BY DESIGN The full foundation course — Python Basics, Strings and Control Flow (21 lessons) — is free forever. No forced trial, no account, no card required. Your progress lives on your device. CODECUB PRO CodeCub Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription that unlocks the 6 advanced tracks — Data, Functions, Comprehensions, Errors, Files & Modules, Classes and Regex (33 more lessons), all with the same spaced-repetition review. Subscription: auto-renews unless canceled ≥24h before the period ends; payment charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; manage/cancel in App Store settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: HaoSay at none against CodeCub's shown. CodeCub's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
