Kinship Calculator+
What to call Chinese relatives
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
"What do I call my dad's older brother's son?" Tap the relationship, press =, and get the correct Chinese kinship term instantly — with voice pronunciation. Offline.
Chinese family titles are famously complicated — every uncle, aunt, cousin and in-law has a specific name, and using the wrong one at a family gathering is embarrassing. Kinship Calculator solves it like a calculator solves math.
Simply tap the relationship chain step by step (e.g. Father's Older Brother's Son), press "=", and the app tells you the correct term (堂哥 — older paternal cousin), with the answer localized to your language.
KEY FEATURES
• Kinship calculator — over 2,000 relationship combinations covering paternal, maternal, direct and in-law relations
• Automatic simplification — roundabout chains (Older Brother's Younger Brother's Younger Sister) are reduced automatically (= Younger Sister)
• Older/Younger disambiguation — for same-generation relatives, the app asks who's older so you get exactly the right term
• Reverse lookup — tap ⇌ to see what the other person should call YOU
• Male/Female toggle — terms adjust to your own gender automatically
• Text-to-speech — tap the speaker to hear the term pronounced (Cantonese/Mandarin), with an optional auto-speak mode
• Share — send the result to friends and family with one tap
• Fully offline — every lookup happens on your device; fast, private, and no internet required
