Founder's Note

I tried countless apps when learning Chinese but found they were either too rigid or tried to do too much. After Memrise became an AI mess and I couldn't get the hang of Anki, I decided to build VocabHacker—an app lazer-focused on helping you study, collect and remember your Chinese vocabulary in a single place.

If you're like me and want a place to store and practice all the new words you discover in your studies, give VocabHacker a try. Learning Chinese is hard, but practicing vocabulary doesn't have to be.
