Look no further, this app is it.
Coban is excellent for learning Japanese. From complete beginners to advanced, it has everything you need. The layout, functionality and depth of learning material is impressive. I especially find the explanations of grammar with examples and exercises to go with it useful and engaging. The developer actively updates the app and responds quickly to user inquiries/suggestions. Highly recommend, this app is one of the best.

Not bad but some issues
The app isn’t bad however there are some issues. The translations are a bit wonky and some of the quizzes do not specify which vocabulary words they’re looking for especially for the vocabulary words that have similar meanings. Also, the app freezes after some time of use. I can only go through one lesson before the app freezes and I have to wait to close it and restart. The customer service has been nice so if you do have some issues, there shouldn’t be any problems reaching out and getting it solved. Overall, the app has potential with some cons.

Muuuch better than Duolingo
It teaches you actual rules of grammar. If only every language app did this, language learning would be a whole different ball game and so much easier.
The only issue is sometimes it boots me out halfway through some lessons-not sure if that’s cuz I haven’t paid for the full package, but, I’ve seriously been considering it. Gold on offer here

Good app overall but has a bug issue
The app itself is good and the content is very useful although there is a issue when subscribing for premium as it glitched and wouldn’t let me access premium content but it eventually fixed
Great for N5 and N4
One of the best apps I have used to learn Japanese, especially for N5 and N4 levels. It covers grammar, vocab, kanji + example test questions in easy to digest pieces.
There isn’t much available for N3 users however, and nothing yet for N2 and N1 - can’t wait to see these in future updates!

Ad loop
Every time i try to select the “conjugation” section on the home page i have to watch an ad, which ok fine. But then when the ad is over, I get sent back to the home page. I try to click the same section and the above repeats. I cant access this part of the app at all and its not a premium feature!
Great resource for beginner
This app offers both free and subscription options for the user. For me, without the subscription, I still get a good amount of resources for reviewing the alphabets and grammar. The subscription will offer more for the learner to practice their vocabulary in reading and listening. In addition, to the resource, the interface is nice and easy to navigate. I would definitely recommend this app.

Great app
This app has helped me so much. Thank you very much for all the great content. You guys should make a Instagram!
A lot of recordings are missing?
This app could be really amazing, but a lot of the recorded words/sentences etc. don’t always play. I think this could be a super useful tool (and I’ve paid for premium) so please fix this ASAP! Hard vocabulary mode also only gives one question before saying the entire quiz is completed?
How can I turn off the horrible music in the background?!
How to turn off the music in the background please???
Response from developer
Hi! I believe there may be some confusion. My app does not have any background music. Could you please check if there is another app running in the background? Thank you and best regards.
