## HanYou Reviews in United States

### *---- "App won’t open"
Every time I try opening the app it will close immediately. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still doesn’t work.
-- keiarro, 2024-05-23

### ***** "-"
-
-- P Dill E, 2022-10-29

### ***-- "Crashes since new update, good otherwise"
App function is great, but all camera functions instantly crash the app
-- Ellipsist, 2022-09-01

### ***** "Best app ever for Chinese/ Mandarin help"
I’m a student and I’ve been struggling trying to learn Chinese while studying other classes. Quite honestly the best app I’ve ever used and it does crash but barely and it found every character I needed to find. I will be buying the unlimited and I believe you should too. The one time fee is definitely worth and helping the developers for their great work.
-- Cajed4, 2022-03-03

### ***** "App currently crashes when opened to camera :("
Hope the devs see this, but the app crashes on my phone as soon as it launches and begins trying to process characters. If I cover the camera and switch to another mode, then it turns out ok, but since I got this app specifically for the camera mode this is a bit of a dealbreaker. Not sure if it’s just my device but hope it gets resolved soon! Otherwise great app.

Edit: The developers have been extremely helpful in trying to track down the issues, best experience I’ve ever had with an app dev. Updating the rating as they find the problem, and in the meantime still good to use the image upload vs live camera recognition!
-- Vincent Popo, 2020-12-11

### ***** "Awesome except for one thing"
My only complaint is that the text analyzer glitches once you go past a certain number of lines/characters. Same problem with Yomiwa. Please fix, otherwise great!
-- ln342000, 2020-11-06

### ***-- "Nice, but..."
... too many updates.
-- AppleAntDude, 2020-09-25

### ***** "App works great since bug fix!"
I love this app and recommend to all my friends. There was a bug last week and after reaching out to the developers they responded immediately and fixed it!
-- stephanielaurA, 2020-05-14

### ***** "Very useful app to learn Chinese"
Hanyou really helps me increase my vocab in Chinese. Not only I learn the meaning of new words, but I get the pronunciation too. Flash cards are useful too
-- LolooKyotoPool, 2020-04-26

### *---- "Nothing special"
I never did too much on it, it does not offer much. Download ChineseSkill instead if you want to learn Chinese.
-- spidyNoir, 2020-03-04
