Leave a Review Katakana Sensei
Decent, but answers don’t match up at times.
It was a pretty good app up until the point where, during the reading sections where they want you to spell out the romaji, I was spelling it out perfectly to match the Katakana and yet was getting told my answer was wrong. I ended up looking some of these words up, and realized it was actually the app that was wrong. If those things were to be fixed, it could be very helpful, but unfortunately once you get to a certain point you just hit a wall due to the fact that the answers don’t match up with the drills properly.Show lessDeveloper Response
Hello, thank you for the feedback, we will be updating a new and improved version soon with bug fixes and more features. Stay tuned!Okay
The app isn’t that bad overall. But for the Kotoba challenges it doesn’t make sense because it tells me to type the letters the character represents and im sure my answer is correct but it keeps saying its incorrect??Developer Response
Thanks for playing, we fiiiiinally made the fixes... We were working on our new JLRPG Quest app that combines both Hiragana and Katakana Sensei. Sorry it took so long, its a lot of work you know...? Thanks again and stay safe out there!This is helpful
I really like the style and is so easy! I can’t wait to for the future! Will it be cards or other learning app? I hope this one will be popular someday!Developer Response
Hello, we read it! Sorry it took so long 🙇🏻, we were working on our new JLRPG Quest app game that now combines both Hiragana and katakana Sensei into one app... We hope our apps will be popular someday too! ありがとうGood for Review
I’m using the app to review rather than to learn katakana for the first time and I’m really enjoying my experience with the app, I think it deserves a place much higher in the search list than where it is now!! The application explains what you’re learning in a much more thorough manner than a lot of others I’ve seen.
I have only three negative thoughts — all related to the kotoba challenge.
1) the first kotoba challenge uses katakana that you haven’t yet learned in you’re just following the order the app gives you — like
“ra” ラ so for beginners who are unfamiliar this could stump them, and there’s no way to give up and ask for the answer so you can improve ☹️
2) I don’t see the number of questions/answers you need to complete on the kotoba challenge and it got really frustrating feeling like I’d cycled through the same words and it’d never end.
3) no fault of the app itself but the classes I take use “ti” for チ and a couple other spelling differences so I’m too concerned about messing up my spell habits to fully use the reading practice 😭Show lessありがとう!
I love this app for learning Katakana because it’s so simple and easy to use (and it’s absolutely free!) and it’s really cute app it makes all the Characters easy to memorize as well as the glides and diacritic modifiers an app like this isn’t easy to come by especially a completely free one so I highly recommend this app if your interested in learning Katakana!
