LEARN CHINESE BY SCROLLING REAL VIDEOS
Real Mandarin videos with pinyin subtitles: tap any word and build your Chinese vocabulary without textbooks.
Textbook Chinese sounds nothing like real Chinese. LanLan 懒懒 (the lazy panda) turns short Mandarin videos into lessons: vlogs, street food, comedy, gaming, Chinese dramas and more. Swipe like you always do, tap the words you don't know, and LanLan does the studying for you.
WHY LANLAN?
• Real Mandarin, the way people actually speak it: 1,000+ hand-picked videos
• Pinyin over every Chinese character, with tone colours, so you hear and see the tones
• Tap any word: meaning, pinyin, HSK level and the sentence you heard it in
• See each character broken down, plus examples of the word from other videos
• Train your listening: LanLan reads the word or the whole line, slowly if you like
• Slow videos down to 0.75x or 0.5x, and tap under a video to pause and read the line
• Every word you tap becomes a flashcard, with the exact video moment you met it
• Spaced repetition brings words back right before you forget them
• Videos picked for your level and what you're into
• Serious mode: business, economics and history in real Mandarin
HOW IT WORKS
1. Tell LanLan your level and why you're learning Chinese
2. Scroll. Chinese subtitles, pinyin and English sit under every video. Tap under it to pause
3. Tap a word you don't know. LanLan saves it as a flashcard for you
4. Review your Chinese vocabulary in a few minutes a day, then scroll again
WHO IS LANLAN FOR?
• Chinese for beginners: your first videos are the easiest, slowest ones (HSK 1 and up)
• Learners stuck between textbook Chinese and real conversations
• Fans of Chinese dramas, anime and variety shows who want to understand without subtitles
• Travellers, people with Chinese family and friends, and anyone learning Mandarin for work
• Lazy learners. Five minutes a day counts

What’s new
LanLan 1.1.3
I said I'd slow down to one update every Sunday, but I found a crucial bug, so this quick update couldn't wait:
• Fixed: when YouTube asks you to confirm you're not a bot, the feed no longer scrolls by itself, and LanLan tells you what helps
• Fixed: the Streak widget sometimes showed a word
• The panda comes alive when you open LanLan
Sunday still brings new videos. Enjoying LanLan? A review helps a lot :)
