EDIT: Issue resolved!!! Great app for getting around in China with little knowledge of chinese! I had an issue with the app having no sound but I contacted the developper and he quickly wrote a step by step guide to fix it, and now it's insanely good!!! It was an isolated problem most likely related to my specific phone or country I'm using it from. Highly recommended!

Hey Guys! First of all, this app is fantastic! However, my audio doesn't seem to be working. Do you have any idea of what I could try? I also have a suggestion, I think a section with phrases for complements and relations would be great. Awaiting your feedback on the audio issue. Thanks again for a great app!
