And if you think Anki is the ultimate app for flashcards, you might be right... but Chinese flashcards with image for the easiest and most enjoyable learning experience can only be found in Chinesimple.

App will not work without google play services. I absolutely LOVED this app. It took me from only knowing how to say "ni hao" to passing hsk2 mock tests in only 4 months. I bought the paid version and loved every minute of it. But, it doesn't sync, even with a pro account. I repeatedly have my progress reset, on the same phone, at random intervals. I just decided to use a dedicated phone that has Google play on it to access this app- it's that good. But it won't open on Lineage OS.

Thanks for your message and support! 🐼 The app depends on native Android/iOS services (voice input, sync, purchases), which LineageOS often lacks. With a Khanji School account, your PRO and progress stay safe. Write us at hello@khanjischool.com and we’ll see how we can help with your purchase.

Excellent Chinese learning app that lets you practice your skills in a game form. I like that there are games for tone training and pronunciation. Also, some of the games can be played silently, like the hanzi character games, so it's an option when you have some time to fill in public (like waiting in a line). I'd love to see an AI chat feature get added!

這個是最好!This app is phenomenal! It is very straight forward and there are lots of different ways to practice! I have learned a lot using the pronunciation exercises and the brand new listening exercises! This app is practically perfect! I would definitely recommend it! To note though, sometimes the English translations are slightly off. They can still be easily understood. Love this app!
