About Hanping Chinese Popup

The ultimate solution for quickly looking up Chinese words on your smartphone or tablet, no matter what app (or system screens) you are using.

The world's first app (on any platform) to combine in-app screen capture with OCR technology.

If you're not satisfied, for any reason, within 30 days you get a full refund, period, no questions asked. We don't want your money if you're not amazingly happy. Simply send us an email.

Note: This app is for Lollipop (5.0) devices or higher. Our other text recognition app Hanping Chinese Camera is available on Jelly Bean (4.1) and higher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.embermitre.hanping.app.reader.pro

If you experience any issues (for example, device-specific issues we may not yet be aware of) please send us an email: hanpingchinese@embermitre.com

When the app is running, there is an always-present "handle" floating over your screen. When you want to look up a Chinese word, place the handle next to the word, and you will see a popup containing the dictionary definition. You can also play the audio, copy to clipboard, add to you starred lists or simply jump to the definition in our dictionary app.

Please note: this app uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology so not always will every character be correctly recognised. However, in supported scenarios you should get at least 99% accuracy.

Works with regular lines of text and most text in images. Not suited for stylised text or text on complex/patterned backgrounds.

A persistent notification allows you to easily hide/show the handle. When the handle is hidden, the status bar icon is also hidden to keep your status bar clean! You can optionally show the notification at device startup and also control hiding/showing the notification from the main app screen.

This works with our Mandarin (free and paid) and Cantonese (paid) dictionary apps.

Typical usage scenarios:

* Instant messaging (e.g. WeChat, Line, Messenger)
* Websites
* Apps only localised to Chinese (so buttons etc are not in your language)
* Photos containing regular text (e.g most menus)
* Maps
* System language is Chinese but is not your native language (great way of learning Chinese!)

Please note: this app does not support vertical text, although we will probably add this in a future update.

Characters supported: 6703 (Simplified), 5401 (Traditional) covering a total 8972 unique characters

Recognition accuracy: 99.5% (Simplified), 98.7% (Traditional) based on various scanned books and newspapers

Important note: If you are using a "lux" app (e.g. Lux Lite, Twilight or 藍色光濾波器) to control the screen colors, this may prevent you from clicking the confirmation button to start screen recording. In this case, you would need to turn off (or uninstall) that "lux" app.

I'm using android v5.1 and it is disabled by default. Is it another way to make this floating feature enabled on my android oppo f1 plus? Thank you anyway for your reply. I am looking forward to hear any solution from you

I love the app! I've been using your dictionaries for a while, but this is easily the most useful! I would suggest indicating that there is a quick settings tile in your screen shots and description though. Some people may not realize it's there otherwise.

Absolutely fantastic, now I can find easily even missed words from my WeChat conversations... only it is not compatible with my older Samsung Phone (S3 NEO), fortunately it is compatible with my new Huawei phone and workds pretty well... was able to recognize characters in all Chinese ebooks and apps I have tried so far...

Love this tool! It's become an indispensable part of my learning. My only complaint is that the "pad" area (the white, enclosed part that you use to shift the cursor around) is designed for baby fingertips. I really wish they'd have some resize options for adult male digits.

Hanping amazed me so much that I ended up buying all the apps with their add-ons :D ! It's really an amazing tools if someone living in China or studying Chinese. This pop-up helps me a lot specially in online shopping in China. Previously I had to copy the text and find it on the dictionary. And now I can just look it on my notification bar. Really happy with this app. But sometimes for some reason the pop-up icon disappear even though the app is running. Edit: Problem Fixed :) !

I'm using this to learn Chinese characters by turning on Chinese in the Facebook app and it is amazing. However using the widget is still quite cumbersome. I would love for the ability to circle words / phrases I want translated. Either that, or make the widget adjustable so I can capture more words at once. Please make this happen!

Chinese is my 2nd language. I was surprised that this app was able to recognize 鼎 character even the printed is not clear. I also bought their other app hanping cam and pro. This has helped me recognize more chinese character. I also hope they would update with the rotate feature.

by L####:

Very good. I just wish it would detect words split at the end of lines, instead of just giving the first character definition. Also, the pointer, although neat, is sometimes a bit uncomfortable to use. More options should be offered. Thanks for the great app!

As a popup dictionary, this functions well, except on text at the extreme left of the screen, where either the interface cannot read or it gets stuck. It reads most characters, even written ones, but, of course, makes occasional errors. The developer is exceptionally responsive and helpful - a model more should follow.

J70%
by J####:

Great developer, very conscientious, and the functionality is awesome, but the overlay inevitably causes jerky screen refreshes (**apparently, only on LG G3**) that can only be fixed with a reboot. I also agree that the pointer is not good for right handed usage. Why not just give an option to rotate and/or flip?

Q70%
by Q####:

Seriously, why aren't there over 100k downloads yet? My only problem with this app is that it works so easily and so well that I find myself not committing words to memory, because I can just look then up whenever I want. ;) just crossing my fingers, but maybe you can implement a "you have stared 10 words. Try reviewing them before adding more" flashcard feature? Thank you!

Using for canto and some characters don't scan (ex. 佢, 咁, 慍). Also would be better if pointer was designed for use with right hand

Please implement the vertical text feature soon!

Advanced learners and beginners alike will love the ability to look up Chinese words anywhere. SMS, web, email... now you don't need to head to your dictionary app to try sketch it from memory.
