Genuinely one of the best apps that I’ve ever used for learning to read and write Cantonese. Many useful ways to practice including writing and listening with immediate access to pronunciation guides, traditional as well as simplified characters, cross referencing, etc. it’s all here.

I know how to speak Cantonese, but never learned how to read and write. This app is super useful in learning those characters.
