Wish you GL. Any educational tool has my support! :) + hat off for learning this... It is one of the most difficult language groups :)
@evakk Not yet, but I'm going to launch app versions in two weeks. Thank you!
This is super useful for anyone tackling Chinese tones and pronunciation. Love the real time feedback, exactly what’s needed to build confidence faster.
@gemanor Thanks for the kind words! Really happy to hear it helps build confidence - that's exactly what we aimed for with the real-time feedback. Keep mastering those tones and let me know if you need any tips!
@terrence_kelleman Hey, Terrence! Thank you for the great feedback and for sharing your experience!
Currently, you can hover over the evaluation marks on desktop to see explanations. Accuracy measures how closely your individual sounds (phonemes) match native speakers, while fluency looks at your overall speech flow - things like natural pauses and word connections. So it's possible to speak very smoothly (high fluency) but with sounds that aren't quite accurate yet.
Since you're actively practicing Mandarin, you might want to check out our new tone practice features at YuYin - both speaking (yuyin.io/speak-tone) and listening (yuyin.io/listen). I just added these today; they could help master those tricky tones!
Let me know if you have any other questions about the evaluation system - I'm planning to make it more intuitive in the next update.
