User reviews

Pros

Comprehensive and organized lessons for learning Mandarin
User-friendly with engaging features like native speaker videos and pronunciation practice
Effective for both vocabulary and grammar with cultural insights
Good for beginners, offering real-life language usage and scenarios
Strong community support and app responsiveness towards user feedback

Cons

Premium content is heavily locked behind a paywall, limiting access to lessons
Limited options for pronunciation feedback, sometimes not clear on errors
The requirement for a subscription model instead of a one-time purchase is off-putting for some users
Some sentences have confusing structures that aren't clear for new learners
XP system for progress tracking feels irrelevant and unhelpful

Recent reviews

features slowly get locked behind a paywall and after a few days, everything is behind a paywall and I don't have access to anymore lessons except the few i already learned. also, it would be even better if it had an option in the settings, next to the pin yin and chinese characters options, to turn off all written language and only have the vocals or speach for the sentences. i end up relying on visual memory rather than listening, which doesn't help me in learning and stunts my growth.

Downloaded it since I'm staying on Rednote even though tiktok is back. I've always wanted to learn different languages, Chinese being in my top 5. Instead of putting it off for the future I have challenged myself to learn and have kept my streak for 11 days, the widget for the streaks is so cute and the character for the app is always saying something different especially when it comes to time being almost up. The real life videos have been helpful, overall I'm very pleased with the app.
