User Reviews for Chineasy: Learn Chinese easily

Love it, but...

So I met this girl over the summer who had just moved here from China, and she barely spoke a word of English. We tried communicating using a translator, but things would get lost in translation, and not to mention the fact that it took so much time to type out what you wanted to say. I discovered Chineasy and was thrilled at how quickly I picked up those first few words. I loved the app execution and being a strong visual learner, this app taught me stuff way faster than Duolingo. But then I realized that I had to pay to continue using it, and my heart was broken. I’ve been using my allowance to pay for it since March, and I am learning Chinese quickly. However, I would love for the weekly fee to be just a tiny bit cheaper, like by a dollar, just so that I can use my allowance for other things. I just have a few suggestions: - upgrades! If we could buy cute outfits for our little character and set the theme, that would make it so much more enjoyable to play.- voice recognition! Sometimes I don’t know if I’m pronouncing something correctly or not, so maybe in the next update you could add a feature where you have to speak to the phone to pass the level. - playlists! I would love to be able to categorize my words so I could review them all at a time, or have it quiz me. That’s all for my suggestions, and thanks to you guys my friend and I can communicate easily now! ♥️♥️♥️

Great app! 🤩

I just started using this app and I’ve already learned so much! I’m a thirteen year old who wanted to learn Chinese and this app makes it really easy and simple for me to understand. I would 100% recommend this app to anyone who wants to learn Chinese and a small period of time. I also enjoy that if you forget something, you can just go back and learn that lesson. It’s also fun learning with pictures because it makes it easier to remember Chinese characters. It’s a really enjoyable app! I thought Chinese would be really hard and boring to learn, but this app makes it really easy and interesting. I’ve had this app for not too long and I already am in love with it! It has the easiest ways possible to learn Chinese character! I really love it and recommend to anyone who wants to learn Chinese easily! Wow, it’s amazing. It’s my first time writing a review! I only did it because I actually really like it and think it’s a great and outstanding app! 🤩🤩🤩

It really is Chineasy

I saw ShaoLan on a TED talk giving a speech about learning and teaching Chinese. I’ve often thought that learning Chinese Mandarin would be extremely difficult as an English speaker. Never in my mind would I have thought about learning a language the way she did. I was blown away by just how easy the language is to learn. Within days I was picking up words and understanding Chinese symbols. It really is just that easy and in a fun way too! In my mind, the most difficult language on the planet is now the easiest. The way you learn through playing it like a game with pictures, characters, spoken words, and puzzles is fun, entertaining, and absolutely brilliant! If you are thinking about learning Chinese this is the app for you. After the free trial you’ll most definitely buy the app to learn more! At 50 years old I never would have thought I’d be learning Chinese and having fun doing it too!

Best app for learning Chinese

This is by far the best app I’ve tried for learning Chinese- and believe me, I’ve tried many. (Duolingo, Drops, Memrise, HelloChinese, ChineseSkill, I’ve tried them all). This is the only app that is actually making learning Chinese fun and keeping me engaged. Not only that, it actually works. I’ve only had this app for a few days and I’ve already been making progress. The concept is unique and effective, and Bao is just adorable and great at keeping me motivated. There’s no ads and it doesn’t glitch, either. The only thing I’d suggest to make it even better would be to add an option to learn only Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese. Right now, it’s kinda mixed. I want to focus on Simplified Chinese but for some words the Traditional version is being taught, and it’s kind of annoying. That’s it, though.TL;DR: Great app that is both fun and effective. Be warned, it combines Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

A gift to the world 🌎 ❤️

Absolutely genius concept and gorgeous app execution! Had been anticipating Chineasy Cards’ release for many months. For someone like me, who is a strong visual learner, this app really helps to reinforce both simplified and traditional Chinese characters in a fun, artistic, and memorable way — and the etymology and cultural insights are a wonderful bonus to memorization. Conceptually, the app transforms a daunting and intimidating task into something that is very easy, enjoyable, and approachable. In fact, Chineasy Cards, combined with the daily podcast lessons, really makes for an outstanding learning experience with regards to pronunciation of the words learned and gaining a real appreciation for Chinese history and culture. Thank you for giving the world such an amazing gift! If I were to suggest some enhancements, then I would recommend giving the user the ability to scroll/swipe through all of the words learned in the Review section (like one does during the lesson) and increasing the overall text size of the etymology section, as the alternate characters are difficult to read. Also, as other reviewers have suggested, I’d love to see an enhanced quiz section to test us on all the words we’ve learned thus far. Being able to review and/or quiz ourselves by category (i.e. numbers, nature, animals, food, family, etc.) would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

A fun way to learn

I started learning Mandarin to compete with my brother. He told me it was impossible to learn all the things he had in traditional classes and immersion programs, especially reading. I started working with Chineasy and started gaining vocab quickly. I am looking forward to shoking him with how much I have learned. Chineasy is super easy for visual learners; I love the writing tutorials, and breakdowns on characters. Understanding the why behind the characters helps them stick in my brain so much easier. The only thing I wish there was a way was to check my own tones. The app makes it way easier to distinguish tones but I would love to find a way to see if I am actually getting the right tone when I am speaking. Overall super great for all ages.

Decent but Disappointed

This app is good for learning vocabulary, but requires much more self study when it comes to actually learning the language and how to speak. I purchased the annual subscription two months ago, and have since learned there is a lifetime package where you can pay up front. I was hoping to be able to upgrade to this with a credit for what I’ve already paid, but I was told this is not possible. I’m very disappointed as I can’t get through all the lessons in a year whilst also having to teach myself everything other than just vocabulary. I will not be renewing my subscription when it expires as it doesn’t seem worth it to pay for another year when the lifetime package was available, and I do not want to pay full price for the package when I already spent $40 on the annual subscription two months ago. Overall, decent app for vocabulary but disappointing experience!

Traditional or Simplified?

I like some of the aspects of this new app, but question why it does not concentrate on either Traditional or Simplified characters. As a fairly new student to Mandarin I find it confusing to switch between the two. I feel it is important to understand that I am learning one system or the other. There doesn’t appear to be any reason to switch between, maybe they did it because some look better visually. If so, this is a deceiving way to market an app that is geared toward education. I have been looking forward to using the Chineasy ideas in app form for my learning, but this release was quite disappointing and not worth my time or money to learn a mix-n-match of methods.Update: I am not buying the developers response. They do not give a choice of which characters they make you learn, which switches between traditional and simplified. I will agree with the statement about teaching the cultural insights, but the fact remains that they are not giving choices and will end up confusing students when they realize they cannot use the characters interchangeably.

Amazing when I use it but...

There should be a reminder 4 using it so u can remember to use it because it is a great app. It’s very helpful especially since I have lived in China for a few years and may go back but I lost most of my Chinese tho i didn’t know much anyways. It is very easy to cheat so I haven’t learned anything yet but the app is fun. The way u can cheat is when u get to the questions you can just go back and look at the answers, also the creators should make an update where they should set a time for studying and then lock when someone gets to the questions so they can’t look back. Thank you for reading my review if its either a person getting the app or the creator if it’s the creator then I would love it if you could look into my ideas thank you, also, if you could add some more words thank you. You should get this game!!!!!!

Great and fun way to learn Mandarin!

I am 13 years old and I am learning mandarin and I love it! Chineasy has to be the most educational and fun way to learn Chinese characters! The illustrations really help you to visualize the meaning and it makes the characters seem more familiar than foreign! It’s incredibly addicting and I always look forward to using it! There were a couple of things I think could be better but overall it is a great app! First off, it switches between traditional and simplified and it’s very confusing to read something in Chinese and to only understand some because it’s either in simplified or traditional. Also I think the quizzes at the end of a level should be harder as I can easily pass through it without trouble but I can’t remember the characters an hour later. And finally there should be a review quiz that you can take when you want and it gives an overview of all the characters you’ve learned and it tells you what levels you need work in. Overall, this app is brilliant and the most fun way to learn Chinese!-Teague Rodriquez
