Ratings and reviews

Good app for learning pinyin but overall disappointing. Strong points: extra lessons in the first level on Mandarin pronunciation and quizzes that effectively drill you. Weak points: running through too much grammar too quickly without learning any words. Also the video instruction has no rhyme or reason, it is not real immersion and jumps between very simplistic dialogues and random interviews at will. There is barely any attempt at a "story" and it's more of a lame Beijing tourism video.

Great app for the most part, but can use some improvements. It's annoying when the app constantly gives you false errors. 1. The writing practice. The app cannot recognize your writing for the most part and will constantly show false errors for writing the character correctly. 2. The pronunciation practice. When you try to pronounce a word, the app's audio recording is so horribly fizzle that the play back is garbage, and you are constantly given garbage errors.

Awesome! It has levels to choose from depending on what you may already know, from beginner & up. It has a speaker icon to play back the words in the lessons to hear pronunciation and a mic to use yourself to say the words. What you say is rated on a % to a perfect 100% pronunciation. The App let's you know how we'll you are doing each time.
