Unknown error code 960 upon installation. Please advise what to do or maybe something needs to be fixed.Thanks!

Some of the sounds are mapped incorrectly, or not at all. The app also tends to crash on startup on the first attempt to launch.

If there is no exact English equivalent, say how to use the tongue to make the consonant sound. The explanation of how to pronounce c is not satisfactory as it doesn't sound exactly like ts in hats, cats, etc.

Lots of typos. Poor explanations. Not good for learning. There are better apps for learning pinyin.
