★★☆☆☆Sharaf Sam· Jul 15, 2026
Giving some exercises that only use Chinese characters and no pinyin from the first lessons is absolutely the worst thing these Chinese apps have, cus I didn't learn any character yet, please fix this and provide pinyin, thanks
★☆☆☆☆Bella Triana· May 21, 2026
Tried every login method it keeps failing. Sad because I was exited to try this app
★☆☆☆☆Alex· Apr 25, 2026
Free version doesn't seem to give anything but a basic duolingo, and you can't do a test to start at your level - have to start form the very beginning, slowly going through things you already know. You also can't disable drawing characters.
