Latest update doesn’t work on dark mode

Version 3.0.1
Since the new update, I can see the kanji and hiragana in “Check” but the English translation is NOT displayed in dark mode. I can’t learn the meanings.

新しいアップデート時から、「チェック」は暗いモードで漢字を見えますが、英語の翻訳を見られません。意味が習えないんです。

Amazing complement to the textbooks

If you have a few extra dollars and are having trouble learning the kanji, i think this is a great option. You can practice either the Japanese or English readings, it includes an animation for the stroke order of each kanji, and there are also mnemonics for each character. It includes all the kanji from both Genki books. I highly recommend writing all the kanji from each flash card while thinking about the meaning and repeating the pronunciation out loud as your using the app. I just finished all the kanji from Genki 2, and I’m already missing this app, it is just so useful. :)

Helped me loads

It’s modular prebuilt flash card system is exactly what I need

I really like this app but...

It’s not working with the new iOS update :(

Really helpful! But...

There are one thing this app is missing and I would’ve given it five stars. It’s too quiet! Like the Vocab app, I thought that this one would have audio as well. I think that having audio samples along with its hiragana pronunciation would really help people who learn aurally.

A nice supplement; Needs to be on iPad

Great tool to memorize kanji. Would be much better if you could use it on iPad and use the pencil for handwriting practice

Disappointed; potential though

A little misleading, I thought there would an option to draw the kanji in the app, there isn’t. The user interface is also pretty horrendous.

Great App with the Book

This is a great app to use in hand with the textbook. Gives you the stroke orders and pictures to remember the kanji.

My only con is when you click the play button to learn the strokes, it turns off your music -_- very annoying.

Unable to shuffle vocabulary

Please correct this error.

Great for learning Kanji

For learning the on-yomi and kun-yomi reading of the kanji, this is a great app. I learned a lot of kanji compound words using this great app. It really extended my vocabulary beyong the textbook. I do wish that the app contains audio recording of each compoung words. This is great for preparting JLPT N4 and N5. Thank you so much.
