Description of Skritter

Practice Japanese writing with Skritter, whether you have a strong grasp of written Japanese and want to remember the characters better or are a beginner who doesn’t know where to start. Skritter has existed for more than 10 years, and for a good reason: our learners are amazing! They help us with feedback, which allows us to create what we think is the best Japanese writing app out there! Japanese writing uses three different scripts; Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. Skritter offers all three and you can learn them through our “decks” (similar to a card deck) based on topics and difficulty. Deck examples: - Survival Japanese (for traveling in Japan) - Food and drinks (learn to understand the menus at your favorite Japanese restaurant with delicious sushi, ramen, and other dishes) - Cultural topics like Samurai Japanese - More advanced topics like foreign policy - And many more… First, you learn a character’s meaning, then practice drawing it and before you know it, you’ll want to learn thousands of characters, and words like these two happy users: “If I could only keep one app on my iPod, this would be it without a doubt. Skritter will change your life!” ― Wendy Werneth, UN Translator “Learning to write characters has never been so fun. From writing zero to 2000+ characters in six months!” ― Brian Jackson, Economist Have questions, problems, or feedback? We would love to hear from you.

Reviews of Skritter

  • Excellent but missing one critical leaning element

    I am using Skritter paid subscriptions for both Japanese and Chinese. The app is wonderful and I’ve been using it for about 4 months consistently.

    I have learned Japanese kanji on my own in the past and what really lets you learn a character is its CONTEXT, ie what words in the language actually use this character you’re trying to learn. That’s how you build the associations that help the character stick. There’s always a moment of, “oh! That’s the character that you use the word ___!”

    Skritter does not do this and it’s the biggest difference from reviewing characters in a kanji book and other flashcard systems out there. In some cases, Skritter provides a sentence using the character, but what the app really needs is just a simple list of two or three of the most commonly used everyday words that use the character. It would be the bomb! Please consider this feature for the future.
  • Best way to learn kanji hands down

    I've been using this app since its very early days (2011 I think) and nothing has helped me learn kanji better. It's fun too and even if you don't care about being able to write, this will still set you down the right path

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the review! If you ever have any other feedback or questions, let us know at team@skritter.com. Happy studies!
  • Amazing app with a couple small caveats

    I Really Love this app! I have learned so much in a short amount of time thanks to it. I love that you can pick which decks to learn from and that many popular notebooks are included. I also really enjoy the writing experience, and the testing and time attack options.

    Tiny tweaks:

    - please create a streak freeze or other way to restore your streak so that it’s not as easy to lose your streak if you forget to practice one day.
    - for the review option I would like to be able to re review the words I got wrong within that session, similar to test mode. I’m also not clear why both modes exist but prefer the functionality of test mode.

    Thank you!

    Developer Response

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feature requests! We are currently working on some exciting updates that will address some of your feature requests. We currently do not have an exact timeline for the release of Skritter 4.0, but it is something to look forward to. You can contact us at team@skritter.com if you ever need us to repair a streak for you. Happy studies!
