Skritter
Skritter teaches learners to write Chinese and Japanese characters on Android, iOS, and the web. In the browser, learners can write characters and receive real-time grading. Flashcards give feedback on individual strokes and bring difficult characters back more often, while spaced repetition schedules reviews. Study options include hundreds of textbooks and user-created lists; Skritter says it supports 300+ lists for popular Chinese and Japanese textbooks. Learners can import vocabulary from ChinesePod, sync saved Du Chinese words into a custom deck, and add words from the MDBG dictionary. Offline lessons and personalized review are available, but speech practice is not. Skritter has a free plan and a 7-day free trial. Listed subscriptions include Monthly at $14.99 a month, 6 months at $59.99 a month, 1 year at $99.99 a year, and 1 month at $14.99 a month.
