  • Yes!

    I would definitely suggest someone's who's trying to learns Japanese to get this, I learn katakana and hiragana so quickly from these apps 👍🏻 totally worth the money spent
  • Love this app!

    If you are serious about learning the Japanese language and not just a few sentences then learning the alphabets are key. This app makes memorizing the alphabets fast and easy.
  • ありがとう for existing!

    I've been studying Japanese for a month now with a tutor and she has been teaching me one line of hiragana a week. Despite this, it just wasn't sinking in; I inevitably got mixed up between my "ki" and "ke" as so many of these symbols seem so similar.

    I literally played with this app for 20 minutes before I identified all the symbols in a quiz. I was so encouraged by this I kept playing with the app throughout the day and I now can say that I have mastered them! I can literally read hiragana now with really quick recall. I went ahead and paid for the katakana version of this app too. My teacher is going to be very surprised!

  • Don't worth it

    I have used this app, I don't think it worth more than5 dollars. Only have some very simple and useless sentences. Some cartoon character seems to be helpful in remembering the word but not much. I'm expecting more sentences, but they try to get you buy more of their products.
  • Pretty good!

    I like the helpful pictures that they added to the characters. It makes them much easier to remember because you now can use mnemonics to remember that character. I'm sold.
  • Incredible.

    Had a rough grasp of Hiragana but had forgotten most of it. Took 10 minutes memorising the pictures, then took the hardest test and got 46 out of 46. This app is amazing, I downloaded the Katakana one right away afterwards. Wish I had this from the beginning, simply fantastic and cheaper than any "learn hiragana" textbook. :)

  • Learned in 1 day

    10/10 would recommend to anyone who truly wants to learn hiragana. I purchased the katakana version and it worked perfectly as well. I've been struggling with the Japanese alphabet for a few months and as soon as I began using this app I learned and memorized both alphabets super easily. I never review apps, but I feel I owe it to dr. Moku. Thank you! The pictures made it so easy to retain information! Worth the small fee. It should honestly be more in my opinion lol. Better than any book I've used.

  • Worth the money

    This app may be a bit on the pricy side but I'd say the results are worth the money.

    I learned all of Hiragana (ひらがな) in one day and the second time I did the quiz I got 100%.

    The only downside to this app is the price. It's a bit high, but you should get this app, it really works.
  • A very surprising app

    The pictures are dumb and they often don't fit the characters. The little sayings don't make a lot of sense and sometimes the sounds of the English words don't match the hiragana sounds. In fact they are mostly so bad that I remembered them easily and ended up learning the first 30 hiragana in about a half hour. I was amazed at how well it worked. I had a deck of paper flash cards that I used before and after this app and I went from knowing 3 or 4 characters to knowing all of them, literally in a half hour. I recommend this app very highly. The more annoyed you are at the goofy pictures the more you will remember them. It works perfectly.

  • Amazing

    I spent two years stationed in Japan while I was in the military, and I tried flash cards and brute force memorization for countless hours to learn Hiragana. I ended up falling in love with and marrying a Japanese women (how thankfully speaks perfect English). No matter what we tried, I just could not get Hiragana committed to memory. I'm not dumb (I like to think anyways - I have a JD and I'm a practicing attorney - so I read English extremely well.) Using this app, I got Hiragana down cold in 24 hours. It is plain amazing. Almost every Japanese study course has as "step 1" - memorize hiragana. I wish I'd discovered this app years ago - I feel like I can finally get started!
