Beginner Chinese learners can start from ni hao and work their way up through our beginner courses that will take them through HSK 1 and HSK 2. Use pinyin only for difficult words or hide it entirely as your confidence grows.

Intermediate Chinese learners (HSK 3 and HSK 4) can begin reading more elaborate stories while learning to use Mandarin grammar in context. Hide pinyin or use difficult words only to show pinyin for all words above your level.

Advanced Chinese learners (HSK 5 and HSK 6) will enjoy our short stories adapted from Chinese folktales and our collections on the Tang Dynasty, Han Dynasty, and more! Our app also covers topics like everyday life in China, funny stories, business Mandarin, latest trends in China, and Chinese history.

Read Chinese at your Level:
Whether it’s our beginner courses about life in China, advanced stories about history, or daily conversations, you can find material from HSK 1-6 to practice reading Chinese! When you stumble on a word you can check our dictionary with translations or jump to Pleco for more definitions.

Save Time:
The Du Chinese app offers a built-in dictionary, pinyin, translations, and professional audio. Take control of your learning experience with our integrations with popular apps like Pleco, Skritter, Hanping, and Hack Chinese.

Improve Your Tones:
Mastering tones can be very difficult, especially when you’re trying to mimic a robot! That’s why we have professional recordings by native speakers for every lesson. So when you say hello in Mandarin, people will understand your 你好.

Expand Your Vocabulary:
Learn Chinese as you read to pick up the most useful words naturally. As you read, save new words and practice them later to build your vocabulary. Our interactive flashcards make it easy or sync them with Skritter or Hack Chinese.

Comments on Du Chinese: Read&Learn Chinese for Android

★★★★☆ Ndzalama Maluleke · Nov 30, 2025
Great app. However, it seems that the content is HSK focused. I think this is great for HSK practice, but I wish there were more beginner stories with beginner grammar but vocab that isn't HSK focused as well (e.g. chinese stories from Storybooks Canada). With the current stories I feel like I'm barely learning any new words in my current HSK level because I already memorized the vocabulary lists for them while going through the book. But good app.
★★★★★ syl · Sep 19, 2025
Super stories for easy reading, good flashcards. One of my favorite Chinese learning apps.
★★★★★ FELIIPE · Sep 16, 2025
This is the best story app to learn Chinese, not because of the software design or etc., but because of how simple and down to earth the stories are, with each from the same group of stories repeating the same words, so you can memorize better. The flashcards and vocabulary count system is also great. Not to mention the amount of stories, great app I highly recommend it.
★★☆☆☆ MJ Brushett · Feb 20, 2026
I really love this app, but it's just too expensive. There isn't enough interesting content to justify the price and new uploads are slow. Plus I was really enjoying three kingdoms and their version does a huge and stupid time skip after Liu beis victory at Guangdong essentially cutting out the most important bits of the story
★★☆☆☆ Aki Eronen · Nov 11, 2025
I used the free version, and it seems very well done. Problem arises that the price for value is way too high if you want premium, which you need as there are not many free lessons.
★☆☆☆☆ Tianjin Hafson International · Jun 1, 2025
I bought the premium for one year and still I cannot use it. Wft waste of money. Can't even login now. Forget password also says this account doesn't exist. No customer support at all.
★☆☆☆☆ S S · Mar 8, 2026
Subscribed until November 2026, but it said I have to buy premium again. Is it normal? Did you see my email? I send you. Здравствуйте а вы рассматриваете мою проблему?
