About PinYin Lite

Paste or type Chinese sentences. Pinyin will translate them into Pinyin romanization, highlight the display, and read them aloud in Mandarin Chinese. (No internet connection needed—it works offline!) Pinyin is a great tool for learning Chinese. Just insert any Chinese words, sentences, or paragraphs. Whatever you copied will be automatically pasted when you open the app and converted to Pinyin. Tone marks and newlines can be removed or trimmed based on your preferences, and you can adjust the voice speed as well. It’s especially useful if you’re in a Chinese class or preparing for the SAT II Chinese Exam. v4.09 -> v4.10 - Close Settings button added to the Settings menu - More From Us implemented to the Settings menu - App information updated for the new 13+/16+/18+ age-rating system
