Leave a Review Learn Japanese!!
Awesome app! I have a suggestion
I love this app. It goes into basic baby steps to teach Japanese, or you can skip the easy steps if you already know them. I love how it teaches you memorization by actually writing the symbols and matching them to the words they correspond.
I’d like to make a suggestion though, when returning to steps already completed, I’d love it if it could start with asking you to draw the symbols rather than teach you them from the start and then teaching them again if you fail. This way, when we return to review, we can test ourselves in these specific areas without having to learn everything all over again.Show lessMonsterelite128
Needs a manual review mode like the kanji app.
I bought all the lessons, and I’d have to say that the price is relatively cheap considering the fact that I’m able to learn the fundamental basics of Japanese. This app uses spaced repetition and active recall (the two most scientifically proven techniques of learning and memorising), which is a big plus for me because I was able to learn both hiragana and katakana in 2 weeks (on and off). I was able to communicate at an extremely novice level to my peers after completing level 3. However, I’d like to see a manual review mode, where I’m able to select what I want to review, similar to that of the kanji app. I can’t seem to rely on the app 100% of the time when it comes to the daily reviews. I'm certain that I have few holes in my understanding at levels 3 and 4, and I’d like to clarify my knowledge by manually picking what needs review. It’d be tiresome and demotivating to go through all the lessons again. I’m usually pretty on and off with Japanese, and since I was a complete beginner, I’d like to know where I’m at.Show lessBoomerTanged
MUCH better than Duolingo
I’ve been testing a few means to learn Japanese in the last few months, and rate this one above them all. I purchased all levels as the learning is structured and makes a lot more sense than chaotic, “intuitive” Duolingo. Use this app to learn the grammar, work on your vocabulary and you’ll see the benefits very quickly. I really like how you learn the kana and kanji together! It’s also aesthetically pleasing and has no irritating sounds. 10/10.Show lessSatchkat
Great
The app seems to be really good. I’ve been enjoying it so far. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to make purchases via the app so I cannot progress.michalovy
Simple but perfect
It works great! Honestly, the ability to practice writing the Kana on the go is reason enough to get this. But it also teaches you basic sentence structure, plays audio for pronunciation, and uses a simple menu are the cherry on top. If you’re starting out for the first time on Japanese, this will be a great introduction. If you came here after starting out on Duolingo or something else like I did, this will help you review the stuff you need and teach you some other useful words. Yes you have to pay for the full version, but $7.99 is really good and it’s a one time payment which is becoming hard to find nowadays.Show lessChaos Hawk
I want to buy
I want to buy more lessons and I can’t!!!!hernandiazz99@gmail
Just started but I’m Happy with it
Wanted to learn Japanese and downloaded this app, it was exactly what I was wanting. Would recommend constantly repeating each of the basic levels and just keep pushing further each time. I am currently aiming to do at least 2 hours a week and hopefully will be at the level I am aiming for by 3 years from now. I bought the app within 24 hours I was that confident in it. Hopefully I can complete this entire app and then if I still need more help I can see where I am at in 1 years. PS can’t wait to understand Japanese anime without needing subtitles 😎Show lessjuriya420
Very easy to follow
Have only started using the app but im finding it very easy to follow. Lets hope that continies!Hinzwip
Great helper
I’ve been using this app for a few weeks and it’s pretty great! I’ve been using it every day and can already write most of the kana and say some basic phrases.
The only gripe I have is with the writing. It’s mostly good, but a few letters are weirdly picky and don’t register as right even if you’re near perfect. It might not be so bad if it showed what it thinks you’re doing wrong. This can get really frustrating as some review tests won’t complete until you get it right on the first try. It’s only a few letters (よand ほ have been particularly bad). Most are reasonable and some are actually a little too lenient, counting my answer as right even when I write the wrong letter (I sometimes still mix up ひ and へ and it gives me credit)
Still very much worth it!Show lessHazzmax
Please read!
I absolutely love how this app teaches Japanese how many lessons there are. My only problem is that I can’t even do the Ka group of Hiragana because you have to pay for any lessons after the first one. This doesn’t make any sense because the you can do the first group of every lesson but none after that. If you are trying to learn Japanese from the beginning (like me) you have no choice but to pay for any lesson past vowels. I think that it would make more sense if you could do all of Hiragana without payment, and then have to pay for the lessons. This would make it so that people would more have time spent on the app to decide whether or not they want to pay, and not have to ask themselves, “Should I pay for this and end throwing away my money because I don’t actually like the app since I didn’t have the choice to explore it first?”
Please change the payment time. I would absolutely love this app and use it all the time if you did. But, until then, I’m deleting this app because I’m a student who can’t afford to possibly waste money.Show lessWinterwolf104
