About HSKStory Chinese Graded Reader

Chinese stories you can actually read, matched to your HSK level, with audio on every chapter. HSKStory has 175+ multi-chapter stories spanning HSK 1 to 9, written as fiction rather than textbook dialogue: slice of life, mystery, romance, sci-fi, historical, wuxia. READ AT YOUR LEVEL Every story is validated against the HSK 3.0 vocabulary standard, so the words you meet are words you are ready for. All nine levels are covered, from roughly 300 words at HSK 1 through advanced reading at HSK 7-9. TAP ANY WORD Tap a word for its pinyin, English definition, and HSK level. Smart pinyin mode shows pronunciation hints only for words above the story's level, so you keep reading characters instead of romanization. LISTEN WHILE YOU READ Every chapter has audio narration with word-by-word highlighting that follows along as it plays. Adjust playback speed from 0.5x to 2x, or switch narration voices. TURN READING INTO VOCABULARY Save any word straight from the story you found it in. Saved words become flashcards scheduled by FSRS spaced repetition, and every card keeps the sentence you saved it from, so you review words in context instead of on their own. READ OFFLINE Download stories to your device and keep reading without a connection. Reading position, saved words, and review progress sync back when you are online again. BUILT AROUND HOW YOU READ - Simplified or Traditional characters - Adjustable text size and reading font - Tone colors - Page-turn or scroll reading - Resumes exactly where you stopped, across your devices GETTING STARTED Start with 3 stories free. A Reader Plan unlocks the full library and is available as a monthly or yearly subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions are charged to your Apple Account and renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase. Terms of Use: https://hskstory.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://hskstory.com/privacy

What’s new

Version 1.9 · Updated October 18, 2026

Pages mode feels smoother: the page follows your finger as you swipe, pinching puts the pages back, and a page turn no longer jumps back to the page before. The Library opens right away with the stories you saw last time, and reading progress now shows on each cover. Feedback opens in one simple sheet, and text fields move up with the keyboard. Stories removed from the catalog still open from your downloads, plus smaller fixes.
