chinapass.app Observed source

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An offline travel toolkit for navigating China without a Chinese phone number, Chinese ID, or local app-store account.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-11 issue.

Field notes

ChinaPass organizes a China trip around practical checkpoints rather than general sightseeing: foreign-card setup, passport-based train booking, QR-menu ordering, transport, emergencies, and attraction reservations. The homepage identifies content pack version 42, a seven-language interface, and offline camera, voice, and phrase translation. It states that translation input is processed on-device and that the app operates without an account, advertising, analytics, or tracking. The site also offers a direct APK download alongside its privacy policy.
