Edit: The app remains one of the more useful ones on the market but over time the gamification of the app has become more and more annoying. Little animations about combos interrupting my study, animations of points going into bags after finishing a short segment, messages about daily streaks - it's too much. I'd have liked to work my way through the new course as it does have some words/grammar I am unfamiliar with but the repetition of known words plus that fluff makes it unbearable.

We are sorry for the experience you've had! For now, you could turn off the combo animations and motivational messages by disabling "Motivational messages" in Settings. We’d really appreciate it if you could share more about your thoughts with us via in-app feedback with some screenshots to help us better understand your needs. Thanks in advanced!

The only Chinese learning app with great free intermediate-level content so far! Looking forward to see more lessons (HSK5+)! Thank you so much for your effort to bring us such a wonderful app! It would be great if (1) each exercise is repeated more often, (2) memorize tip will be showed automatically after when writing completes, and (3) there are more reading exercises.

Thank you for your review, Tracy! We don't have plan to do more lessons for upper level (HSK5+) but we are currently developing new features that would help you further. Stay tuned!

fine app, but annual premium+ account is too expensive. Are you going to add in your offer unlimited access to it with a reasonable price? it would be reasonable for anyone. In this case you would get maximum that I can pay and I would get "all in one" app to improve my chinese during next 3-6 or more years with single payment. Keep in mind the next thesis: you have borne the costs of development. I do want to pay you. But I want to have a good deal for me. The good deal is an unlimited premium+
