A Treasure of a tool! Five stars! – English Dictionary-TH, ID, ZH Review

After using Line for two weeks, I realized it is an amazing help when I am studying a lesson in simplified Mandarin Chinese: if I am not sure of what I heard or what I am reading, I can either use the microphone (with Chinese activated on my keyboard, of course) or hand-write the characters, and the app analyzes the sentence as it heard it or as you wrote it, then you tap “Analyze” and it gives you the pinyin AND the English translation. If I keep the phone a bit away from the sound source, it captures the sound a little better. I rarely have to do it more than once. Next step would be to try the app in a conversation with a Chinese Mandarin-speaking person. I bet it would work very well, as long as both speakers have a little patience to let the app analyze what is being said. It only takes a few seconds per sentence. The app accepts up to 500 characters at a time, which is a lot. This app is an astonishingly excellent tool, and I use it together with Pleco (Pleco gives me the stroke order of any word I need to study). A HUGE THANKS TO THE GIFTED DEVELOPER(S) OF THIS APP!
