Works great for me!

Everyone is different and learns in their own way. For me, I have found this app works well to study and remember all of the characters.

Can’t learn words and phrases

This app is very helpful when leaning hiragana and katakana, but when I go to learn phrases and words the app simply closes down, I’ve tried this in the hiragana and katakana course but they both do the same thing, I hope this can be fixed.

I can’t use it

I bought the bundle and I can only use one the other two apps won’t even open

It is a great app, but

Don’t get me wrong. The connect is wonderful. It truly helps you to learn Japanese. However, the apps requires a lot maintenance. Simple things like screen rotation and multitasking are not really implemented (just to mention a few). I agree that taken this into account the app is expensive. But I feel like you are paying more for the concept behind it than the app development.

Charts broken. Contain now Hiragana instead Katakana

After update to V3.0 the ‘audio chart’ and ‘quick reference’ have now hiragana characters in it instead of katakana.

Please change back as it defeats the purpose of this app!!

Thank you:)

5/5

Very simple and very effective! Hands down quickest way to learn Kana

Great system

Struggling to get started with Japanese, but the mnemonic system has been a revelation. Three weeks in and I’m fluent in reading and listening hiragana and katakana and moving on.

Great Beginners App

I love the app but my suggestion is please add the option of viewing the missed characters after the quiz.

Please allow proper disabling of sound!

The current mute audio option doesn’t work properly. When the audio is supposed to ply the app will pause background audio (youtube, music, etc). This is because the audio is taking over the sound output even though no audio is actually being output.

Please developers, I know the app is old but it makes it useless for me since I can’t use it while listening to something.

Amazing

Amazing app! I honestly learned Hiragana and katakana within an hour each. (One hour for Hiragana. Another hour for katakana). It was truly helpful and fun to learn.

They even have a small update that lets you play cross word puzzles so you can also practice your Japanese and some vocabulary (there isn’t much vocabulary but it does get you started on learning).
