About this app

This program's data is sourced from the *Cantonese Pronunciation and Word Matching Database* (http://humanum.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-can/) webpage developed by the Centre for Computing and Humanities at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. This webpage was originally very convenient and information-rich, compiled with reference to various documents.

Unfortunately, it's somewhat inconvenient to use on mobile devices, so this small program was developed for simple Cantonese pronunciation lookup.

Personally, the *Cantonese Pronunciation and Word Matching Database* is simply a tool for finding the pronunciation of unfamiliar characters, or for leisure and knowledge enhancement; it's not intended to promote a so-called "correct pronunciation" lifestyle.

The *Multifunctional Chinese Character Database* webpage launched by the Centre for Computing and Humanities at the Chinese University of Hong Kong now supports a mobile version, is very user-friendly, and offers a wealth of diverse information. I highly recommend using the web version directly.

Ratings and reviews

The last version was fine. After I updated the app, I can't see the Chinese character I just typed. It is actually there because if I tried to select it in the box fir searching, I can see it being high-lighted. Searching function works fine but on the result page, I can't see the buttons for different init/tone. When I tapp the box where the button is supposed to be, again, it works. So, I believe there's some problems displaying the character in the search box and the buttons.

The app is good but the pronunciation has not been working for many months after an update. The sound appears to be crackling and screaming at you. Please fix. Thanks in advance.

The old version is better. Now the new one doesn't show the chinese characters in the SAME INIT & FIN, SAME FIN & TONE for reference. That is why I gave a 2-star rating to this upgraded version. Developerd please put back those functions in the app.

What’s new

Jun 21, 2026 (v2.0.7) - 移除一些讓部份使用者不方便的配字底色或字色、攔截一些因連線不穩導致閃退的情況，希望可以再減少閃退的情形。

版面整個打掉重來，運用比較新的 API 所以太舊的機型再也不支援了。而且舊版的程式碼我也丟失了，還有用那麼舊的機型的人應該不多... 吧？

新的 API 看來穩定度比較高，配色可能會覺得有點怪怪的請見諒。另外因為我也轉投 iPhone 幾年了，這個程式目前維護是休閑用的，因手上只剩一台 Android 11 的 Sony 機，發生問題時可能不會及時察知。望各使用者海涵，有空的話 Email 告訴我或提出建議也非常歡迎。
