Chinese Characters 汉字 reviews
4.6 out of 5, based on 1,347 reviews.
What people like
- Great for beginners learning stroke order
- Includes definitions and example words
- Shows historical character development
- Reasonable price for lots of content
What they complain about
- Search doesn't jump to the character
- Tracing feature is glitchy and frustrating
- Cannot switch to Traditional Chinese properly
- No search by tone numbers
Woah ! 🙏🙏🙏
This App is Amazingly superb!
Terrible
Incredibly, the app does not allow searching based on tones, e.g., zhong1, zi4, zhe3. This makes the search function practically useless. In addition, this purchase is NOT eligible for a refund - despite this debilitating flaw.
A Couple of Features Missing
I really like the fact that this app provides the historical development of most characters. However, the only way I have found to save characters is in the journal, but it only gives you information on the stroke order and not the pronunciation or Pinyin. There’s a sound icon in the journal, but it doesn’t work.
Can not buy premium
hi, why I can not buy premium, when click on get advanced characters, nothing shows up
Traditional characters don’t show up
It looks like a good app overall but I can’t get it to switch to traditional. It’s on in the settings but when I go back to the list it’s still all simplified.
Journal
Cannot delete wrong writing PS
Already purchased but cannot open
I already purchased and paid. But cannot open. Can pls help me ???????!?!!
Tracing feature needs improvement
The fonts in the tracing feature are based on Chinese Kaishu calligraphy structure, which makes it harder to trace and be understood by beginners. Just imagine how much harder it is to trace English alphabets in cursive than in Arial fonts… I think this is why the tracing goes out of control at times for all characters I tried. Should provide an alternative where users can trace characters with simple stroke fonts.
Traditional Characters
The app is mostly perfect but doesn’t support handwriting practice in Traditional. May it please be added?
Very good
ถ้าหมวดตัวอักษร สามารถเปลี่ยน font ได้จะดีมาก, รวมถึงกดแล้วมีเสียงเลย ไม่ต้องเข้าโหมดเขียนถึงจะมีเสียง
Trình thoát phần viết chữ để trở về quá bất tiện
Quá bất tiện như tiêu đề
One thing could make this app a lot better
Although their wide range of vocabulary is very good and useful, if you could click on the word and have it show you that word in a sentence it would make this app a lot better.
Great. App, but...
This app has such great potential, but when trying to trace the characters, using the Apple Pencil or finger, the app tries to force the lines of the trace to snap to the character on the screen that it hinders the flow of the trace lines and causes them to go crazy. The lines, when tracing, will stop in the middle of tracing for no reason and will cause them to stretch across the screen and just act wacky in general. It’s virtually unusable. Also, the character grid should be able to zoom in or out. The grid with characters is too small with no way to change size. I would gladly pay the $8.99 for the advanced features when this is fixed. Copying/tracing characters should be smooth and not such a frustrating experience.
If they made one simple improvement, it would be awesome
I love the app for keeping my characters memorized in a structured way, but the indexing is a nightmare and I REALLY wish they would make one simple improvement to save me so much unnecessary scrolling/searching. Namely, i wish the search feature would take you to the location of the character within the massive scroll, or at the VERY least, label their location more specifically than merely HSK 6, for example. Even the alphanumeric location would be an improvement over simply the numeric location since to find a character’s HSK 6 location within the scroll, I would have to search through 1000 characters to find it’s scroll location. For example, I am someone who wants to not only memorize the characters, but where every character is located to keep better track of which characters i know, and to be continually conscious of whether new characters i learn elsewhere are not this list or whether I’ve just forgotten them. To integrate this with other learning materials, I separate each 120 character section into 10 groups of 12 to memorize. This gives me a sense of structure and completeness of this list relative to characters not on the list. It’s like learning the alphabet in order as opposed to simply knowing a bunch of random letters and guessing which letters you know when you learn new words. With some of the note taking i do in other apps, I try to index the characters of this app, according to the context of their location in the scroll, but man is it ever unnecessarily redundant and time consuming to type a character in the search bar, have it designated as HSK 5 or HSK 6, and have to scroll through all of HSK 5 or 6, to find it’s location. It’s not that you don’t get all the relevant information about the searched character, it’s that the process of structuring SETS of characters in one’s memory for sake of completeness requires a real searching headache which could be easily fixed by one simple fix to the search feature. Take me to the character’s location in the scroll when i search for it. MAN, would that save me a lot of headache. If that small improvement was made, this app would be SUCH a fast, convenient tool for structured memorization of characters.
Excellent Beginner App
Perfect for beginner, and probably intermediate Chinese character learning. Stroke order, definitions, all laid out logically....for a very reasonable price.
Brilliant
Found this app as I prepare for my HSK exam it has a lot of information to assist me with my preparation. I would highly recommend it
Review aldy
Good way to learn Chinese for beginner
Awesome
This is a awesome app. It’s everything I wanted. Tells you stroke order, meanings and even example words! This is so huge in language development. Honestly the price for all the characters that they provide makes it worth the purchase if/when you get past the free ones. Great job, guys. Next make one for Japanese! 🤌🏽🙏🏼
