Daily Chinese: Grow Vocabulary

Awesome app with many different HSK to choose from, spaced repetition, and different types of questions! Also a simple design which isn’t trying to beg you for a subscription every five seconds. And no ads!!!!!!

This app is great for growing and maintaining vocab. It helped me pass HSK1 recently! I also like the categories for growing specific vocab like “going online” or idioms. I’d love a pack specifically regarding Chinese teas and teaware (e.g. gaiwan). My love of Chinese tea was a major motivation for learning Chinese.

VERY clean app. That alone makes it so nice to use compared to many others. I have 4 stars simply because it’s not very customizable right now even with the (relatively not expensive, single time payment of $7) premium. Here are some thoughts. 1) Id like to be able to see all the words I know and edit their stats. Sometimes I accidentally mark a word as known. 2) The non-flashcard questions provide too much information in my opinion. Each word has pinyin, characters, and definition. Of these 3, the questions always show two of them and leave only one on the back. Id much prefer only one on the front and two on the back (or even better, one on the back as well as the front), or to make possible to enable this. Until this is added, I unfortunately can only use the flashcards as getting, personally, getting two of the aforementioned characteristics means I can almost always guess the third, even if I don’t know it. 3) Reverse flash cards would lovely 4) Id like be able to do ALL my due questions in one without having to click on each deck individually.
