I set the font size to maximum, but still it is too small to easily read the accent marks! The app was apparently written by a young person who doesn't realize that lenses in the eye stiffen with age. There is plenty of space on the screen, but the app isn't using it. I don't have trouble reading newspapers or other papers, but it is hard to read the app on my phone. It is also annoying that there is apparently no option to show the traditional characters.

Its AMAZING! 很棒! The voice is clear. The personalization is great. The pictures with animation helps with memorization. The variety of way to learn is so fun and engaging. This is before purchasing the subscription. The subscription is affordable in comparison to others and I think it's worth the investment to use all that is offered through chinese panda. My interest is rekindled, I'm excited and I will be buying soon.

I've had this app for a couple years and it was good when I got it, but over the years they have updated a lot and it's even better than before. They provide multiple ways of learning and practicing the words through visuals, audio, typing, and more while mixing up ways to produce or translate vocab and put it into context. You learn vocab, grammar and syntax and more for written and spoken Chinese. And it's cute. :) As a teacher of language, I am especially impressed and recommend this app!
