Outstanding app... I am using several because my brain finds the language hard to take on board, so multiple systems helps, but this really is the best! Many thanks for all the hard work to create it... You have done the language proud!

the app is quite comprehensive, but the characters are not taught in a logical order. I would like to learn simpler ones first that become the building blocks for more complex characters.

Starting session stroke wise, goes from easy to suddenly very difficult\complicated randomly. Search\category lists requires payment. No explanation found to what the "CL" part in definitions means. Not sure what the number icon is for, already cleared daily session.. some incorrect jyutping in sentences, needs report button. Words should be skippable or there should be a quick toggle for adding\learning new words. Thank you for reading!
