9月23日的HanziDragon: Chinese Writing应用程序分析

HanziDragon teaches Chinese characters through handwriting. One layer at a time — meaning, strokes, radicals, words — without overwhelming you. Currently based on HSK 3.0, with 950+ characters covering levels 1, 2 and 3. Each character unfolds in stages. You meet it, learn what it means, watch it being written, then write it yourself — gradually, layer by layer. How it works • Watch the stroke order, with radicals shown in distinct colors — color codes make the structure of each character more visible • Trace the character, then write it from memory with gentle hints • Get feedback if you mix up similar radicals (like 日 and 月) • Explore compound words and pinyin through matching exercises Each character is practiced and reviewed enough times to actually stick — without rushing. Two modes • Guided Path — work through characters in order, lesson by lesson • Open Practice — pick your own characters, exercise types, and pace Try any level The free version gives you 40 characters from each HSK level 1-3 (120 total), so beginners and intermediate learners both find practice that fits. What's included • 950+ characters covering HSK 3.0 levels 1–3 • Native speaker audio • Apple Pencil support, optimized for iPad • iCloud progress sync between iPhone and iPad • Simplified Chinese characters (简体字) Pro Subscription required to unlock the full library. More HSK levels are coming — content preparation takes time, but Pro subscribers will get them as they're released, at no extra cost.

From the makers of Robokana, a similar app for Japanese kanji. Questions or feedback? support@hanzidragon.com
