Hanzi Reader: Learn Chinese

Turn any Chinese children's book into a tappable learning adventure. Scan, tap, learn — meaning, stroke order, and read-aloud in one app.

Hanzi Reader turns any Chinese children's book into an interactive reading lesson. Point your camera at a page, and your child can tap any character to instantly see its pinyin, meaning, and stroke order.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Scan — Point your camera at any Chinese book page. Apple Vision detects every character in ~2 seconds, right on your device.

2. See the Page — The actual book page appears with tappable character hotspots overlaid on the image. Tap any character to learn.

3. Learn — Each character shows pinyin, definition, radical, stroke count, and animated stroke order. Swipe through detailed character cards.

4. Read Along — AI extracts the complete text from the page. Read sentence-by-sentence with natural audio playback and comprehension tracking.

5. Review — Smart spaced repetition quizzes help your child remember what they learned based on Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve.
