Description

Reading Chinese is extremely important, if you live in a Chinese speaking country, plus it's the best way to learn the language. But reading raw characters has always been difficult. Pinyiner makes it easy. It breaks the characters into words, shows Pinyin above and displays the English meaning if you click on a word. Just copy&paste some text, "Share" it from another app or open a file.
Perfect for reading messages from your friends, Chinese texts on the Web and even whole books. You can also use it as a Simplified/Traditional converter.
Check out the ad-free paid version!

Note: on Android Oreo the Clipboard monitoring might not always work because of the "Battery optimization". In this case, go to Settings -> Apps & Notifications -> Advanced-> Special app access -> Battery optimization -> Select "All apps" at the top -> find Pinyiner, click on it and select "Don't optimize" -> Done.

FEATURES
+ Works fully offline and very fast
+ Clipboard monitoring: any copied text containing Chinese characters is automatically annotated in the notification area
+ Paste the text or use "Share" from another app to annotate with Pinyin
+ Edit the original text
+ Convert between Simplified and Traditional characters
+ Open and annotate text files, even large books (UTF-8 encoded)
+ Save text and its Pinyin into a file. If saving both, you can read the resulting TSV file with e.g. MS Excel (Data->From text->Delimited->Tab)
+ Mark interesting words and export them to Pleco / Anki / AnkiDroid Flashcards for effective learning
+ Add bookmarks to the text
+ Integrates with other dictionaries: GoldenDict, ColorDict, Pleco, Hanping, etc
+ Rearrange how the characters are grouped into words
+ Zoom in/out, configure the color, pinyin style
+ One great short story is included (to realize that reading Chinese is actually easy and fun!)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Cannot live without it.
1 ★I used to upload a pic with hanzi and the app gives me the pinyin now this option is not available
4 ★I love the experience so far....good jobs
5 ★Previously I gave this great app 5 stars, but now that I upgraded my tablet to Mi Pad 5 (Android 11, MIUI 13) neither Clipboard Monitoring nor saving the file work EDIT: Saving file fixed, thank you so much! Clipboard Monitoring issue may be because of the system, because other apps also have issues with that despite receiving proper permissions. I use Pinyiner daily, it's a life-saving app and there's no like it on iOS.
4 ★I don't know if it's just me or something. I can't find any txt files on my device through this app anymore although clearly they are there. It used to be my companion when reading Chinese txts. Pls try to fix it if it's a bug. And thank u for your amazing app. It was a delight. (My phone software is Android 11.)
