Daily Chinese | Words & Idioms

i never write reviews but i was shocked to see how little reviews there are when the app is such high quality. i memorised characters really quickly on this app and i’ve only been on it for 10 minutes. the graphics are beautiful! the integrated ai is really helpful to remember the characters. i love it :)

This is exactly what I was looking for! Wanted to learn a few HSK 4 words every day and it has all HSK level packages included so you can just set up a number of words to learn (and practice the learned ones). The only drawback is that there is no option to multi-select words to mark as known in bulk. Otherwise a perfect, elegant solution. Note: isn’t 联系 HSK4? I think it’s missing.

really grateful to the developers for making it free - this is education as it should be: accessible to all btw i think there is a mistake in the translation for 把 - can you double check?

Superb app. I have completely switched to this from Anki. My only request is to please add the HSK 7-9 vocab.

Very easy to use and effective !! really good app to learn vocabulary i definitely recommend !!

Amazing app, very useful packs and pleasing design. However, there is no audio for the characters to learn the words to - the audio function seems to be there but isn’t functioning. What a shame!

For the current HSK1 it is around 70 USD for a year. Flashcards should not cost the same as a year of study materials written and audio. Otherwise easy to use. Maybe the price has changed, I cannot get the purchase page to open any more. Would have been more interested to say smaller fixed for hsk1/2 and then more for the additional and cool targeted word lists.

I don’t usually leave reviews but this is genuinely an amazing app. Probably the best part is how minimalist it is, no game mechanics or annoying graphics, helps me stay focused on just memorizing lots and lots of words. I just got the premium version and it is definitely worth it. Great work from these developers, especially since some other language apps (looking at you Duolingo) have gone off the deep end into annoying and unhelpful “features”. It would be nice to have a way of searching through your learned words, but in general the ai mechanic gives quite good explanations of terms. Maybe add a pack for 成语?

The app itself is great for learning Chinese vocabulary because it goes far beyond the basic learning level. However the new pricing model is too expensive. So I my main source for learning will be Anki. It’s ok to make money for the effort of creating the app, and compensation is deserved. Why not introduce an ad based version? That way you still make a bit on the version that’s free for users, and then maybe cut back on exorbitant subscription price? People can choose if they want to do away with advertising.

It’s a fine app, but a recent update introduced unlimited — essentially, if you want to do HSK I and another set of flashcards, you need to pay $8/mo or $72/year. I don’t want a subscription, and certainly not for flashcards. I would be OK with buying the packs, but subscribing to them is not the right business model. If you need the reoccurring revenue, there needs to be reoccurring content. Some simple Chinese stories based on the pack would be fine, a podcast, or even access to a study group are all better choices.
