Overall is good but hope to trim the audio into paragraphs
meikotsang
I really like the App, it helps to improve the Chinese/English translation learning, especially the recent updates feature allowing to show En/Cn in the same page. I hope it can trim the article audio into paragraphs so that we can listen by paragraphs and it’s more useful to practice listening. Since the App’s target customers are Chinese English learners. Also, one thing that I am not happy with is, I can’t join the weekly English forum because I chose the notebook( which I understood); but when I offered to extend my subscription before the due day, try to overlap the subscription, I still can’t join the forum. I have to wait until my current subscription ends then subscribe a new package so I can join the forum after that which it is not costumer oriented.
Please fix the fatal bug!
awesome！
iOS 14.2 beta After the ads popped out, the app is completely dead. No response at all.

Frustrating that one cannot copy and paste words or more importantly characters from this app's articles.
Please help my money back to my account

Please cancel my Chinese new year special order for three months ($14.99) immediately cause I mistakenly made both a year subscription and the Chinese new year special order at the same time....
Ok translation, information not updated
Zhsimon
The translations are in a good shape. However, The articles are not the newest. Most of the time, they are 2 to 4 months old, which you can find online for free too. In addition, the app only gives you five articles per week. Considering over 60 articles per week in the real economist magazine, the amount of the information given by this app is really limited.

It is very good and exactly what you'd expect. If they offered a read-aloud version in mandarin with professional voice actors I would buy a subscription today.
Scroll issue
Evanzhao89
Why the article goes top every time ever since I switch back to this app!!! I have to scroll down from the article's starting point to the content I was just reading. Do u know how annoying it is ?! It is the basic sense to keep where it is when user leaves the app. You idiot!
