About Hanzi Palace

Chinese characters become easier to recall when their sound, tone, shape, and meaning live in one memorable scene. Hanzi Palace turns character study into a guided memory journey. Connect familiar people and places with reusable visual cues, then build a personal story for each character. LEARN THE WHOLE CHARACTER • Follow a guided path that introduces components in a useful order. • Hear the reading, see tone-colored pinyin, and study meaning and stroke order together. • Write your own memory scene, or use an optional on-device suggestion on supported Apple devices. REVIEW BY ACTIVE RECALL • Recall pinyin and meaning before revealing the answer. • Write characters from memory, then reveal their stroke order. • Use spaced repetition to focus on what is due. SEE YOUR PROGRESS • Browse learned characters and HSK levels. • Track activity and maintain a daily learning rhythm. • Keep learned words close with Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus Apple Watch. MADE FOR APPLE DEVICES Study across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and widgets. Your progress syncs across supported devices when connected. Learned content remains available for offline review after setup. A complete sample lesson is available before sign-in. START FREE The free plan includes the first 50 guided lessons, HSK 1, synced progress, and unlimited review of what you have learned. Hanzi Palace Plus unlocks the complete guided path, HSK 2–9, and supported on-device suggestions. Monthly and annual subscription options are available. Hanzi Palace is an independent learning app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any examination board. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
