Great app but
I love this app and all but I really don’t like how long you get to choose the sound. For example, I look at the character and go to press a sound but the timer is already up and is on the next question. It would be an amazing improvement if you add a question timer so you could make it longer or shorter ( I bought Premium and I couldn’t find any settings for this)

Exactly what I have been looking for.
Well designed and responsive app that’s easy to read and keep up with for those who know Hiragana or Katakana and just need some daily practice.
No complaints other than I hope the developer returns to update the app with modern features such as full screen cover for larger phones and dark mode.

Great sight letter application
If you want to practice reading Hiragana and katakana, this is the application for you !! Fun game to play on the busy Japanese trains.
They should make a Kanji version!

Needs more options
This app is nice for people already learning Japanese. Definitely only useful if you already have the chararacters down fairly well. The options to pick which characters to include is great. This app is helping me to identify the characters faster.
The problem I have is the time limit. There needs to be an option to increase the time you have to answer. The current time is about 2 seconds. Which is great if you already have all the characters memorized, but not so great if you are still having trouble with a few of them... such as nu/me and ne/wa.
Tl:dr - Memorize the characters first, then use this app to help you identify them faster.

amazing!!
this app is really helpful! i suggest trying your best to memorize the hiragana table and then taking this to help you memorize the characters at a faster pace. this app gives you five seconds to choose the correct answer which is hard at first, but eventually, you’ll get the hang of it! the design is also quite cute, too. the only thing is i wish you could practice katakana without paying, but other than that, this is pretty good!

Not much to do
Not much to do need to pay $7.99 to do much
Wow, I love a real challenge... great app!
This is the best hiragana/katakana drill app that I practiced with so far! It FORCES you to stop second guessing your knowledge and you have to move speedily. It helps you to stop translating the characters in your native language and to just know them when you hear or see them. It has the full list of the characters where people can also study the characters before drilling themselves...the drill is NOT where you “study” the characters...it’s where you test whether or not you DO know them. That’s why some people are probably complaining; they want to use the testing area as the study section. It’s totally for beginners if you use it correctly; I’m a beginner too. I nearly avoided this app because of some of the complaining reviewers...but I guess everyone’s learning style is different. I WILL finally learn katakana using this app. Yay!

Great for Japanese beginners
I used this app when I first started learning Japanese in college and I still use it in my free time to study. It really helped me a lot when I was struggling to learn hiragana and katakana. 10/10.
Amazing
Loved it, this along with a mnemonics is great to remember(best method so far for me)
this really helped me, if not for this app, I would still be stuck at あいうえお
Now we need this for Kanji 🤣👏🏼

Great for review, poor for learning
This app is good if you want to review, but due to the timer in the questions it is not great for learning.
