Coys1991 Posted July 20, 2015 at 12:58 AM Report Posted July 20, 2015 at 12:58 AM I am preparing for the HSK. I have bought several books to help me with the tests, but what about apps? What are some apps that are worth buying for? I personally like Anki Deck, but any others people would recommend for me to try out? Thanks! Quote
Johnny20270 Posted July 20, 2015 at 03:22 AM Report Posted July 20, 2015 at 03:22 AM hi Coys, I use one called Hello HSK, They have Hello HSK1 ... 2 ...3 4, You can download a trial version and see what you think. $10 a month of $26 for 3 months. Its limited but kindof useful. Also the Grammar wiki is useful as it covers a lot of things like sentence patterns, adverb comparisons e.g. 本来 vs 原来 I put a lot of this into ANKI, not for SRS purposes, but more for an easier way of high level testing. If I find any others , I'll let you know as I will be preparing for HSK4 soon 1 Quote
Shelley Posted July 20, 2015 at 02:37 PM Report Posted July 20, 2015 at 02:37 PM Not specifically aimed at HSK but an app that IMHO no student of chinese should be without - Pleco. Have a look at it here http://www.pleco.com/ 1 Quote

kevinBBBBBB Posted August 31, 2015 at 08:26 AM Report Posted August 31, 2015 at 08:26 AM 1) Sticky Study (my fave) 2) Flashcards (download anything free basically, also rad) 3) HSK pro (meh) 4) HSK test (meh) 5) Hello HSK (pretty good. I will use more later) Quote
china-euro Posted March 23, 2021 at 09:53 AM Report Posted March 23, 2021 at 09:53 AM i didnt like anki or hello hsk, i just downloaded, bing-ed, pdf files of all hsk hanzi. tried memorizing them like that... ugh.... why are all hsk apps so wacky? I tried 2 diferent flashcard apps that just repeated the same sh 7 times, even after i correctly chose the right answers. I swiped 10 000 times for hanzi i knew!!! anyway other apps to use? chinese skill for basics debo chinese blew my mind with fundamentals hanping is super for checking hanzi hsk magic for coversation and pronounciation and pin1yin1-website is the best for translating new text, better than google- Quote

mungouk Posted March 23, 2021 at 12:58 PM Report Posted March 23, 2021 at 12:58 PM If you don't already have the Pleco app on your phone then stop what you're doing right now and go and get it. tofulearn is good (and free) StickyStudy (iOS only) I like for its design. There are probably much more up-to-date threads here than this one (6 years old) for answering your question. 1 Quote
