Amazing app! Thank you!!
It’s an amazing app. I learned Chinese and so did my sister and brothers. I really recommend this app if you’re moving to China or if you just wanna learn Chinese. But, there is a thing I want fixed. I want the flash cards to be different, a way I can memorize it, I know you can say “Not remembered” or whatever, but it doesn’t really help me... also, I think the quiz should let you choose the number of questions you want, but give them some options. For example, 100, 50, or 20. I really love this app and it helped me, thank you so much!! But when I speak it randomly to my friends (through text mostly) they don’t even know what I’m saying, so I recommended this app to them 🤗. They loved it, and we practiced together. It’s a great way to bond with friends, siblings, or parents. Once again, I recommend this app if you’re tryna learn Chinese. Thank you and that’s all I really have to say!!
I love this app! The simplicity of the themes and ease of use are amazing. The ability to learn both the traditional and simplified characters within the app is more than I can do with some of the bog names. I have learned and RETAINED more using ChineseWords ChineseSkill. No matter what new app comes along that I try (and have paid for) I always come back to these two. I cannot recommend them enough.
This is a great app; it is easy to use and semi-customizable. The word choice has been very helpful as they chose words that are very common in everyday life (given I live in China). However, the biggest drawback for me is that you can't make decks of flash cards or customize what you are reviewing. It goes alphabetical only, which is great, but sometimes you want to work on a certain group, and you can't. I give it a 4, but I'd like to give it a 3.5. If you just want a basic vocabulary app, I'd still say this is the best out there.
It’s a great app but it could be better if, like if you put you don’t know the word, instead of it repeating the word it could put it in a list of all the characters you did not know and you can go through those. You should also have a system when if you get it right in the game, you get 5 points. And you try and save up points for rewards or something or you could compare you’re points or score with other people that have this app
Just as with the previous app, ChineseSkill, this new app is amazing. Not only are the graphics and design beautiful, the app has an awesome concept. When I began learning Chinese I used the anki flashcards with their spaced repetition to memorize the characters, however I had to individually make the flashcards which took an enormous amount of time. This app is amazing because it has 5000 of the most common Chinese words built in with the spaced repetition system so I don't need to make my own flashcards anymore! If you are looking to build your vocabulary, this is the perfect app for it. If you liked ChineseSkill, this is a great addition to your Chinese learning toolbox. Thank you so much ChineseSkill team for creating this app! Keep up the work ! 謝謝你們! 辛苦了! 加油!
I love using all three of the apps by this company, they are very easy to use. This is even better than quizlet for review I think and with the all three of these apps. I think I am learning much more then j would in any of the European languages I am learning in duolingo, and I have already learned and retained more than from my Chinese 1 class. Definitely would recommend!
Both apps are amazing. The flash card one, when download to iPad, there is a setting "play audio before or after card" is half cut by another setting" download offline". So it can not be adjusted. If that can be fixed, really appreciate. They are so good. I don't mind paying for those two apps.
This app is amazing! I love how simple and quick you can learn Chinese in this app! And the flash cards and games are just plain awesome! I am half chinese and had always wanted to learn how to speak in it. As a beginner, I had much improved, and it's all thanks to this app!!! Thank you :)
This app has slight issues with the switch between game and flash card modes. One shows you too much information - so you need to change the settings when switching between them. You also must get the Chinese Skills app that teaches you most of these words in sentences and in context. Good for free app - I'm grateful for it
Being a fluent speaker and wanting to learn to read has been the biggest challenge. It is in some ways harder than learning a language from scratch. This app has the option to prevent me from "cheating" and using pinyin as a crutch, and really learning the words. Thank you!
This app has two modes, a generic "flash card" mode, and a game mode that quizzes you. I personally prefer the quiz mode, but both options are available if you're not about that life. I feel more confident after seeing all I have memorized. Best of all, it's free! :)
Very great app, you can study the words alone as flash cards or play a choice game, allowing you to choose between two examples for the right choice. It shows character, meaning and does pronunciation!
I downloaded 9 different Mandarin study apps and most did not work for me but this app paired with the Chinese skills app created a great way to introduce me to mandarin. This app uses repetition to introduce you to more words. On top of that it is made fun through the animated panda.
I like this app so much. I can test myself whether I remember the characters or not. Mostly, I do remember them. I recommend this app to anyone who wants to memorize the Chinese characters.
(It just takes a little while to download haha) but this app is super helpful and has tons of words to study. I just wish there was a little more grammar structures taught but regardless it's an all-around helpful app! 很可爱啦~ (^_^)v
I use this app along with Chinese skill. As I'm learning Chinese myself, these apps are absolutely helpful, and I love the panda. I'll totally recommend this app.
Not the best I've seen. The flash cards are great, but they are random and does not let you go over them. Even if you put that you do not know the world, it'll just repeat it until you say you know it, which does not really make sense. Hope they'll work on it more
If you select you didn’t remember, it just keeps prompting the same word until you say you know it. The metrics at the end are obviously always remembered all words. Also, their feedback form is broken - no server host name found or something.
Doesn’t advance if you don’t remember, making it useless. Also doesn’t show vocab. In game mode doesn’t show pinyin. It could be really good with a few tweaks or settings added.
its a suitable app for a beginner like me. it helps me to learn new word by traditional way and also has the review function. hanzi and pinyin, which are very important for chinese learner also put into this app
I was really excited to use this app and the possibility that I could stop making flash cards. I live in China and I am studying here. Unfortunately, it is difficult to learn any new words since you won't see those words again for a really long time. It seems as if you are cycling through all 5000 words. Maybe once I get fluent I can use this app, or hopefully it will improve over time. I am a beginner in Chinese (HSK 3)
