Learn Chinese the smart way!
tongtong helps you build real Mandarin vocabulary and actually keep it. Instead of cramming, tongtong schedules every word for the exact moment you're about
to forget it, so each minute of study counts.
STUDY THAT STICKS
• Adaptive spaced repetition (FSRS + Item Response Theory) learns how fast you forget and reschedules each word individually — no fixed decks, no busywork
• Clean flashcards with simplified characters, Hanyu Pinyin, and English meanings
• Native-speaker audio for every word and example sentence — tap to replay anytime
• Real example sentences: tap any word in a sentence for an instant definition
• "Easily confused" words shown side by side, so 比 and 避 never trip you up again
• Measure words, parts of speech, and traditional variants where it matters
• Tricky "leech" words flagged so you focus where it counts
START AT THE RIGHT LEVEL
• A quick adaptive placement quiz finds your HSK level on day one — never bored, never overwhelmed
• Words tagged HSK 1–6 and 7–9, from first steps to advanced fluency
SEE YOUR PROGRESS
• A daily streak that rewards consistency over cramming
• An ability rating mapped to the HSK scale, with a 90-day trend
• Retention %, total words learned, and what's due today — all on one home screen
LISTEN AND LEVEL UP
• tongtong Talks: Mandarin podcasts sorted by HSK level
• Synced transcripts with word-level timing — tap a line to jump straight to it
• "Before you listen" vocabulary so you're ready for every episode
BUILD YOUR OWN LIBRARY
• Search the full corpus by character, pinyin, or English
• Add any word to your study pipeline in a tap
• Full word detail: definitions, audio, examples, and your personal review stats
Sign in with Apple or email and pick up on any device — your progress syncs automatically.
Whether you're starting HSK 1 or pushing past HSK 9, tongtong turns scattered study into steady, lasting progress.
Start learning Chinese, one word at a time.

Ratings & Reviews
tongtong 2.0 is a new app from the ground up.
Three new ways to study beside Read: in Listen you catch the word in real speech, in Use you put it into a sentence, and in Write you draw the characters, checked stroke by stroke. Home shows how much of everyday Chinese you can handle in each skill.
Never had tongtong Plus? Your first week is on us, no payment details needed. Plus opens Listen, Use and Write, every story, and lifts the daily card limit.
After every card you see how it went, when the word comes back and the XP it earned. Stories now have a narration player with three speeds and a quiz at the end.
And every screen has a new look, in light and dark.
