The Ultimate Manga Reader & Language Learning App for Chinese

WeHanzi is the ultimate language learning app to help you read and write Chinese. You won’t even feel like you’re studying-just dive into exciting manga-style comic stories while naturally improving your Mandarin.

WeHanzi fully supports both Taiwanese and Mainland Chinese dialects with Pinyin and Zhuyin support.

The app even let's you know which expression is used in which country.

With WeHanzi, you can learn Chinese in a natural way-through reading, discovery, and mandarin immersion in content you actually want to read.

Simplified & Traditional Characters | Pinyin & Zhuyin | Multi-voice Audio | Sentence & Word Translations
400+ Lessons | HSK & TOCFL Levels | Unlimited Language Fun | Free stroke order writing practice
