About Hanzi Mind: Learn Chinese HSK
Learn Chinese properly: read, listen, speak and write. Hanzi Mind takes you from your first character to HSK 6 with spaced repetition that schedules reading and writing separately, because recognizing a character and writing it from memory are not the same skill. No outlines, no hints: if you needed help, it doesn't count as known. Follow the syllabus lesson by lesson: all 146 lessons of HSK 1 to 6 (2.0 standard), the same as the HSK Standard Course textbook, split into 555 short classes with Lǎoshī, your guided teacher. The new HSK 3.0 is covered for levels 1, 2 and 3. Got an exam? Add the date in My goals and get a week-by-week plan. Read 150 graded stories with audio that only use words you've already met, and download them to read offline. Plus: character anatomy and etymology, radicals and their families, dictation, tone drills and syllable-by-syllable pronunciation assessment. What makes Hanzi Mind different: - DUAL spaced repetition. Reading and writing are scheduled separately, because recognizing a character and being able to write it are not the same skill. Each one gets its own review date. - No hints, no outlines. If you needed help to trace a character, it does not count as known. - Dictation: write what you hear. - A library of graded stories with audio, with vocabulary controlled to your lesson. Every story only uses words you have already seen, and you can download it to read and listen offline. - Character etymology and, where ancient forms are documented, their animated evolution from oracle bone to modern stroke. - Pronunciation assessment with syllable-by-syllable analysis and a profile of your recurring mistakes by initial, final and tone. - Printable A4 calligraphy workbook. - Tone drills with audio and recording. How access works: Free: the first HSK 1 lessons, complete. Not a cut-down demo: they include their audio, their stories and their etymology. Core (one-time purchase): HSK 1 and 2, permanently. Premium: everything. HSK 1 to 6, the full library, pronunciation assessment and AI help. Fully available in English and Spanish.

What’s new
Version 1.1.12 · Updated October 22, 2026
An app that's easier to find your way around - "Lǎoshī" is now called "Today", and all four tabs always show their name. - Practice redesigned: pick a lesson and one sheet gives you the class, the words (read, write, dictation and print) and that lesson's grammar. - Each level shows what you can practise for free. - Library with no repeated stories, filters in view and "Continue…" for your series. - Games are easier to choose: less text in the list, with the details when you open each one. Writing and goals - The writing summary now counts what you did correctly, even if you stop halfway. - When a goal reaches its date, the app asks whether to extend it or close it. - New words in the mission follow your level. Improvements - On the web, writing and draw-to-search also work when zoomed in. - Stability fixes.
