Jide Chinese brings each word back right before you’d forget it, then trains it every way you’ll use it: hearing it, saying it, reading it and writing it by hand.
Free while in beta. Works on your phone and computer, with progress synced between them.
jìde means “to remember.” Tones are colored the same way inside the app, so you see them before you hear them.


Jide uses FSRS, the modern scheduler also offered in Anki. It estimates how well you know each word and times the next review for just before you’d forget it. Easy words drift months away; hard ones come back tomorrow.

Pick one mode, or let Mix shuffle them. Every card ends with natural example sentences you can play aloud and tap word by word.
Hear the word, pick its meaning. Slow it down or hear it in a sentence.
Hear a word and choose the tone of each syllable. Pinyin is colored by tone everywhere.
Say it out loud, get scored by your microphone, and compare with a native voice.
Draw characters stroke by stroke. It catches wrong strokes and shows the right order.
Chinese to English or English to Chinese, with wrong answers that really make you think.
Type the missing word in a real sentence, with a hint if you need it.
Translate whole sentences. AI checks your Chinese and explains what to fix.
See what each character is built from, with a memory hint and other words that use it.
AI writes stories, news-style articles, dialogues, WeChat threads, folk tales and mysteries using the words you know plus the words you’re learning right now.

A 3-minute placement test finds your level and skips what you already know. Then climb ten Jide Chinese levels, each a full test of listening, reading, writing and speaking, from 30 minutes at Level 1 to an hour at Level 10.
