phenomenal app! i like the way the characters are represented with images and all of the app's graphics are easy to understand and lovely to look at! well worth paying for - though i do wish there was also an option for a one-time only payment, instead of the subscription model. that's the only thing i think i'd change, to be honest.

This app is incomplete. When purchsed, I was under the impression that there were 300 lessons. At the time there were only 225 lessons, and now only 240 lessons are available. Often the app will repeat words in existing lessons, then claim you have learned additional words. In a few cases the audio doesn't match the character being learned. The app also switches between simplified and traditional randomly, which is very confusing for someone learning Mandarin. Don't buy. I want my money back.

Thanks!

I study many languages (Russian, Indonesian, Malaysian, German, and Chinese). This is by far the best vocabulary app for Mandarin I have found. Each of the characters is presented in a well designed way and offers an explanation of why the character is used (great idea for the radicals). The price may seem a little high but when you compare it to other apps that don't offer as much artful ideas, it is definitely worth it. Currently (according to my calculations) the app offers about 2,500 words
