User reviews

Great extension, does more than I expected it (probably more than I needed actually), but I really wish there was a way to customize a bit. For example, it's a little bit difficult to read the translation: the font is small and the contrast is low. Also, I'd love to have the ability to turn off pinyin. In my experience, pinyin makes it harder to memorize characters.

I am studying in Japan. And one day my Japanese friend told me that she is using a tool, hanzi xiaobai, to learn Chinese. She told me that she really likes it because the logo of hanzi xiaobai is so cute and she could make the most use of her time studying Chinese. So out of curiosity, I downloaded hanzi xiaobai and I start to like it because it also teaches stroke orders. Hate to admit it that as a native Chinese speaker, my stroke orders are not always right. Hanzi xiaobai is useful to me in this aspect.

My foreign friend asked me to recommend some tools in order to learn the Chinese language. I browsed a lot tools and I liked Hanzixiaobai the best. It is very user-friendly and neat. My friend told me that she really likes it.
