5 ★ Good companion for learning Mandarin
4 ★ can i edit words? or combine two character?
5 ★ Good app
5 ★ Excellent
4 ★ My level is somewhere in between 3-4 HSK with characters holding me back as I live here in China. This allows me to quickly read WeChat texts (or wherever) within the app when I'm blanking on one or a few. Makes my response time that much quicker n it teachers me new characters effortlessly.
3 ★ This app can be a helpful tool. I'd add like an option to hear an audio of the word or picture reading capabilities full translations like other apps have etc. But it's only for individual character recognition
4 ★ I just download this app. I think its great. I try it first. But If you have any option that can change the position of the pin yin under the Chinese letter, I think it would be wonderful. Thank you
4 ★ Your app is works great, but it needs little improvement in definitions, maybe you should look up to pleco for definition
2 ★ There are many homonym error. For example 撒 (Sā or Sǎ )
5 ★ This app is brilliant, reading Chinese has become easy for me
5 ★ Very useful app, i was looking for something like this.
5 ★ JUST WHAT I NEED!!!❤❤
5 ★ Straightforward and easy to use... Forget the characters and grab the pinyin.
5 ★ Perfect
5 ★ awesome
