It's not so good. I dislike that i can't stop app before showing the next word, because i rather stop and listen the word more in order to understand my errors. Would be great to limit number of variants for beginner. And i hate useless tabs
It's a good app but very limited. We need to be able to create a list of words or select words from the training session two or three at a time to go over separately. It's a very limited app right now.
At the pair test sometimes the audio files or possible answers are wrong (due to the App). When fixed 5 stars. Otherwise a good to train tone recognition
If errors would affect future tests I would rate 5 stars
Great for helping differentiate tones! I looked how focused this app is on that one feature and no more.
I have a hard time distinguishing tones, and between z,zh,j,ch, c,s,q, and x. I think this app has improved that
Great app. A good addition will be the option to have a hint out clue when you have doubts. It could pronounce all the options presented in the screen so you can compare with the answer. This will help to understand the differences among the options.
Tones are not easy to distinguish, as in real life. Makes for great learning tool.
The paid app doesn't work off line.
Unlike what other reviewers have said, I like the fact that it is difficult to hear what tone the speaker is using. It is good training. It is legit because my Chinese fiancé gets the tones right every time.
