MandarinTap for Android
I really like this app, but after not using it for a while, I opened it up again and it wouldn't work once I clicked a lesson. Please look into this because I'd really like to use it again. I'm on a Samsung Note 3.
Very good
This is a longer version I love this one
But please give the option to turn off hint arrows. Please!
Great little app,but please add more content! I have completed what is there and am willing to pay for more!
I got it as a really helpful app to learn mandarin. Thanks
This is a great app for beginners like myself.
I think this method of learning is very good. I love how each character is explained within the words and each word is explained within the sentence.
Doesn't work, period. The main screen loads, but tap on any lesson, and I get a black screen. Guessing that perhaps the lesson is downloading in the background, I let it sit for awhile, but no success. Very disappointed. Perhaps it isn't compatible with Android 5.
I love the concept of the app but I can find several large adjustments that would improve the app a lot. First, often a character refuses to allow itself to be selected. This is annoying. Second, there should be a 'replay audio' button in the practice section so that you can hear the pronunciation of the whole phrase again before moving on. Finally, review sessions should be more different from learning sessions. I think what makes this app awesome is the way that individual character meanings are grouped together and displayed with the cumulative meanings of the combined characters. I also really like how the practice sessions force you to pick from similar looking characters, very practical.

Good
This apps is excellent. Teach u every steps. Keep it simple but usefull. I keep trying to find apps that interest me to learn chinese and now I found it. Thank you a lot.
I agree with DeColumnas assessment, great start! Add those features and this is the killer app.
this is an extremely good program you will man alive i'm running this is a very good program * up im recommend to everybody i hope your maker for career and japanese is where
Just need more content. Maybe create from the 1000 most used charactets
I am early into using this but its really enjoyable. With pinyin, english and chinese characters its easy to figure out what is going on.
Great app for beginners! I think you should add a few options to customize our learnig experience. For instance turning off the initial hints on each lesson. I dont want to be reminded each time I open a lesson I studied previously. Keep up tge good work and I hope you can continue improving this app

This app doesn't just cover the same vocabulary that other apps use, it also adds more vocabulary and even intruduces grammar too. Could work better for someone who has a bit of knowledge already rather than absolute beginner. It could also use some other game styles to give you extra options.
Does it different... Does it well. Can't wait to see more vocab and features.
Alan, this is an amazing App, I love it. If you want assistance in generating more content I'd be happy to assist, esp given this is a free App. Thanks again.
Very good for learning characters and useful words or phrases

Need more vocabulary
Not bad .
I recomend
Really nicely designed app with a developer who seems passionate about the subject matter and has a desire to improve their app with input from the community. The intention of the developer to add more and more lessons is only a good thing for this!
With a little bit of knowledge about the language, this app can be very helpful in building vocab. There are small interface oddities, my biggest gripe is that the "next" button is on the same place in screen real estate as the answers appear... This makes it very easy to hit the wrong character. Also I wish the animations could be made to go faster, but these are interface gripes and not quality gripes of the material. This is now one of my standard study apps.
The difficulty is average, there is a hudge list of subjects and the word association is very well represented ! I think it worth it's price and I hope the app will evolve in the futur !
Purchased it because it seemed interesting. Only works in one orientation :( Great concept but overall needs work.
Very intuitive and engaging.
The developer listens to feedback and fixed several issues. Limited language and vocabulary coverage, so four stars.
This is a great app for beginners like myself.
Wish there more options though. Hope it keeps getting updated!
