User Reviews

Users praise the app for fast performance and overall usefulness, with stroke order guidance as a notable feature. The main drawbacks are handwriting input lag with Apple Pencil, UI readability and theme-customization issues, monetization/frustrations over paywalls, and occasional crashes on older devices.
Pros
  • Fast performance and responsive input experience.
  • Generally helpful and well-liked for learning Hanzi.
  • Stroke order guidance feature, including Spanish localization.
Cons
  • Inconsistent handwriting input with Apple Pencil (lag, incomplete strokes, reliability issues).
  • UI/readability problems in dark mode and limited background customization.
  • Monetization/paywall concerns: not free to view most words and the ad-free upgrade offers little extra value.
  • Compatibility issues on older iPadOS devices (crashes/update problems).
Recent reviews
could be improved by: - randomization button that selects random hanzi within course selected (e.g. HSK1) - method to translate phrase in its entirety instead of single character by character - definition defaults to always showing english first - the "?" page does not move off of the introduction page (others not viewable?)

Apple Pencil doesn’t work on some fields. The execution order of character writing doesn’t follow transnational Portocol. But over all VERY NICE
