Are you studying Chinese and proficient in pronouncing PinYin, but dont ever see any Chinese writing with accompanying PinYin?
Have you ever been in a Chinese restaurant, looking at the menu, and wishing you knew how PinYin of the dishes names to be able to order them from your server in Chinese? Have you ever been in the taxi in China or Taiwan and needed to tell your driver the destination, with the address in hand, but you could not pronounce it? Well guess what - the struggle is over!

With the PinYinize, you can use your camera turn Chinese characters into phonetic PinYin at your fingertips!
Simply point the in-app camera to the Chinese text you are interested in, take a photo, and the app will automatically convert them into PinYin for you.

What about those pesky characters that change in pronunciation based on the change in context? Weve got you covered!
The PinYinize will display the Chinese characters in your photo by grouping them in helpful boxes that identifies the pertinent context they are in, and helps you pronounce the characters accurately!
