Unlock Hanzi vs Hanmo

Unlock Hanzi turns your Lock Screen into the easiest place to learn Chinese. One HSK word (pinyin, characters, and meaning) stays on your Lock Screen and Widget until you've truly learned it. No timers, no pressure. When you're ready, write it by hand in the app and move on to the next word. HOW IT WORKS • Add the widget to your Lock Screen and Home Screen • See the current word every time you check your phone • Open the app and practice writing it with your finger FEATURES • 5,000+ words from the HSK words list, ordered from HSK 1 to 6 • Self-paced: the word only changes when you say so • Handwriting canvas: write, clear, repeat freely • History of every word you've learned, with your own drawings • Day streak and progress by HSK level • No accounts, no ads, no tracking — everything stays on your device Chinese vocabulary sticks when you see it often and write it by hand. Unlock Hanzi builds both habits into something you already do dozens of times a day: glancing at your phone.

Hanmo (汉墨) puts Chinese vocabulary where you already look: your lock screen. Add the widget and a rotating word from today's plan — character, pinyin, meaning — appears every hour. Tap it and you land on that exact word, ready to review. ONE SIMPLE LOOP • A daily plan of new words and due reviews (you choose the pace: 5–20 a day) • Flip-card review: see the character, recall it, then reveal • Don't know a word? It comes back in the same session until you do • Know a word three times over the days? It earns its red seal — mastered MADE FOR CONSISTENCY • Words rotate hourly in a window you choose (e.g. 08:00–22:00) • A gentle daily reminder at the time you pick — optional • Streaks that survive a busy day HONEST BY DESIGN • 100% offline — works in airplane mode from first launch • No account, no analytics, no tracking, no paywall • Simplified and Traditional scripts, with pinyin (and zhuyin for Traditional) • On-device audio for every word and example sentence Dictionary data from CC-CEDICT, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.
