Skritter: Write Chinese

It’s not just average - it’s kinda best in class!

I haven’t tried to learn Chinese before. This app has been a kickstarter for me, it’s my start line. I don’t know how far I will go down on this path, but I hope to reach at least HSK3; knowing 300 characters would be a reasonable foundation.

I have been living in China for several years and did little progress learning Chinese. Stumbled upon this app recently and realized that this was exactly what I needed! I use it together with Pleco, in particular with the Outlier dictionary, to understand origins of characters, which helps in memorizing characters even more efficiently! Thank you, Skritter!

Пробовал переустановить-не запускается и все. Жаль

Установила приложение, хотела попробовать его в течение пробного периода, но списали деньги за месячную подписку без возможности попробовать приложение

SRS- spaced repetition system отличная возможность построить крепкий фундамент из слов максимально эффективно. Данное приложение предоставляет отличные функции за разумные деньги.

Very comprehensive and well made app with lots of videos and leaning exercises.

I downloaded this app as a supplement to my Chinese classes in the hopes that it can aid in my character and word retention outside of my flash cards and Chinese homework. I knew the app was subscription based. However, I wrongly assumed that the app would allow me the freedom to test some of its features WITHOUT inputting my payment info. Unfortunately, I’m unable to try out even a few decks already provided in the app without needing to, “Activate a subscription to unlock learning on all decks and more.” I understand the need for the app to maintain its subscription model. However, I think it’s absurd that you need to provide payment information upfront to even DO ANYTHING in the app. I don’t want to use the 7-day free trial because I don’t even know what the app can offer me in the first place, again, WITHOUT providing payment information. In comparison to other subscription-based language learning apps, a free version is available albeit with limited access or fewer features. Unlike Skritter, I’m more inclined to try at least the 7-day free trial because I already know what the app offers and whether or not it works for me. The fact that Skritter doesn’t offer that option and requires that you provide payment info for JUST a 7-day free trial doesn’t make sense and is extremely frustrating for a broke student like me. TL; DR - the app does not offer free features and requires payment upfront to try the only free option available, the 7-day free trial. I wish I could comment about the quality of the app itself and its ability to help in my Chinese studies. Unfortunately, everything is locked behind a paywall.
