Overview

Features & Capabilities

Learn Chinese without opening an app. One common word at a time on your home screen: character, pinyin, meaning, and native audio. 5,000 words, ordered by real use.

Learn Chinese from your home screen.

Hanzi Time turns idle glances at your phone into fluency. A clean widget shows one common Chinese word at a time — big character, pinyin, and meaning — spaced through the hours you choose, so you learn without opening an app.

• 5,000 of the most common words and phrases, ordered by real-world frequency • Native audio pronunciation for every word • Choose how many words per day and your active hours • Minimal, distraction-free widget in standard and translucent glass styles • No accounts, no ads, no data collection — everything stays on your device

HOW IT WORKS

Add the widget to your home screen and pick your settings: how many new words a day, and the hours you're awake. Hanzi Time spaces the day's words evenly across that window, so a new word is waiting each time you glance at your phone — and nothing arrives while you're asleep.

Words are ordered by how often they actually appear in real Chinese, so you learn the most useful vocabulary first. Tap any word in the app to hear it pronounced.

HANZI TIME PRO

Pro unlocks all 5,000 words, native audio for every one, and Focus mode — drill just the top 50, top 100, or any set of words you've saved. One purchase, yours forever. No subscription.

User Reviews

Highly recommend for anyone wanting to retain written Chinese or learn commonly used phrases. I studied Chinese in college but got rusty over time. Hanzi Time helped me bring it back. I also like the ease of having it on my home screen as a reminder throughout the day without me having to remember to do anything. I got the full 5000 words and am very happy with it.
