Ratings and Reviews
Good once I managed to get it up and working
Simple but useful and effective app once it was loaded properly. But It was a frustrating experience trying to get TrainChinese to set up, recognise and accept a password by which to activate this and other features which were supposed to be part of a fully upgraded membership.
Perfect for tone listening practice
I’ve always struggled when it comes to identifying tones with two or more characters - although simple, the app provides just what I needed for practicing this and as much as I want (with a relatively cheap subscription)
Good but needs an update
It's very good at its simple but very helpful primary function, which is to help you recognise the different tones in Mandarin. However the app is very dated and would benefit from an update.
It needs:
• support for multitasking
• support for iPhone 5 display size
• progress tracking
