I was satisfied with the learning in the early days. but I have complaints. I was confused by the version 2.0 and 3.0. in addition, after updating the app recently, the stroke count became pro content and it was free content before the update. and I still couldn't figure out how to unlock flashcards.

Thanks for your feedback! 🐯 Both answers are in the FAQ section of the app: “How do I unlock the Flashcards” and “What is the new HSK 3.0”. You’ll find all the details there, but feel free to email us at hello@khanjischool.com if anything’s unclear! 💙📚

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.

app is great!! i was just wondering whether theres a way to turn off the stroke animation on the write hanzi minigame? id like to try to remember to write them from memory just from the pinyin. otherwise this is the most detailed learning app by far!

Thanks a lot for your kind words! 🐯 We're really happy to hear you're enjoying the app. Yes! In the "Write the Hanzi" game, you can turn off the stroke animation by tapping the eye icon 🧿 in the footer button of the game screen. That way, you'll only see the pinyin and can test your memory freely! Keep up the great work! 💪✍️
