HanziBee helps you learn Chinese vocabulary and remember it for a long time. Each word you learn is scheduled for review using FSRS, a modern memorization model, so you can revisit it just when you're about to forget.

REVIEW

Look at the word, flip the answer, and let HanziBee know how well you remember: just two buttons, no hesitation needed. Example sentences are provided with pinyin and translation. Daily goals and reminders (optional) help you maintain your study streak, while words you often forget will be marked for additional practice.

LISTEN

Listen to an audio clip and select the word you just heard. The audio is sourced from the words scheduled for review today, at normal speed or 0.75×. Any word you mishear twice will return as a separate practice exercise.

READ

Short stories categorized from HSK 1 to HSK 4, along with comprehension questions. Tap on any word to see its meaning, tap again to add that word to your flashcards. Toggle pinyin on or off as desired.

WRITE

Write each Chinese character by hand. HanziBee checks each stroke in the correct order, and the Show me button will demonstrate the stroke when you’re stuck. The writing practice has its own review schedule.

FLASHCARDS

Start with HSK 1, 2, and 3 (2,369 words), a themed set, or create your own set. Paste a list of words, such as those exported from Pleco or Anki, and each word links to its full dictionary entry.

PROGRESS

View your study streak, the number of flashcards reviewed in the week, month, or year, your accuracy in vocabulary, listening, reading, and writing, along with the number of words you know.

YOUR OWN, USE EVEN OFFLINE

No account needed: your study data is stored on your device, and the review, reading, and writing features are available without internet. Log in with email, Apple, or Google to save your progress and synchronize across devices. Add a vocabulary widget to your home screen or lock screen, choose a light or dark theme. No ads, no tracking.

NOTE

The app interface and the meanings of words are presented in English and Vietnamese.
