Reviews of Kanji Star

Best Kanji App Out There

I’m surprised more people haven’t tried this one because this is the best kanji app I’ve found. It’s super comprehensive, has lots of lesson options and a larger and more complete catalog than any other I’ve found. There’s no subscription but a really reasonable one time payment unlocked everything. It’s really the only useful app I’ve found for kanji!

Minimalist but powerful

The app may not have spoken readings or quizzing, but what it does have is all the kanji most people will ever need. The price is reasonable considering it’s a one time purchase and there’s no ads distracting from learning.

The app works great in general but sometimes doesn’t easily recognize straight horizontal strokes unless they’re perfectly straight, which is a challenge if you’re on the bus.

My only other suggestions would be to add hiragana and katakana, and to fix the shuffle mode so it doesn’t repeat characters until you’ve gone through the entire study set.

All in all I’m happy with the app and I’m using it daily.

Strokes don’t recognize

After playing with the app for five minutes I found a bug where certain strokes aren’t recognized even if you do them correctly. Other strokes aren’t as precise and accept any input. App won’t let you progress till you get the order right so this is an issue.
