Nice
No mistakes in the writing and I love it
The best app I’ve found for learning Japanese so far
I tried the free lessons, and found them really useful. I like the format, it’s working for me. Lots of repetition, you study at your own pace and they pop in the odd bit from other lessons to keep you focused. I purchased all of the lessons, the price is a bargain compared to other language apps.
The lessons make sense in terms of structure, whereas other apps don’t for me.
Really enjoyable so far.

Learning my 3rd Language
I am a language teacher (ESL) and so when I decided I wanted to learn Japanese! As my 3rd language I decided I would like to have an app so I can practice whenever I happen to have a free moment. I downloaded about 6 or so apps and THIS app was the only one I kept because it teaches you the language through all 4 domains of language acquisition! (Listening, reading, writing, and speaking of you repeat what you hear and read out loud). It’s great! I happily paid the $6 to get the full version the first day I downloaded it!

Would chose this over Duolingo, but
So this was like the BIGGEST disappointment for me, because I thought ‘wow! I have finally found an app that not only teaches how to write and read, but also to speak Japanese!’ But after the first three lessens I said that you had to pay. I know this isn’t such a big deal but still, I am really disappointed.
Update: I bought it this app is amazing! And I wouldn’t chose duo over this anyway because the first three free lessons taught me more than six lessons on Duolingo.ありがとう! (It means thank you I think)

It’s 2:30 in the morning lol
This is my first time even putting effort into learning any language other than English, honestly I love this app. I wasted a lot of my money but it was worth it lol. I just got this app like an hour ago and I can almost say a few full sentences with out looking at my notes sheet. For the people who are reading this who want to get this app, it’s worth it, but I highly suggest you write lots of notes because the lessons go by fast!

I don’t like it
Turn off this app because it gives you the first lesson for free but then once you want to go onto the second one or the third one or basically any other lesson it tells you that you have to pay I would pay for this it’s a good game honestly but I wish I was aware at first before getting the game that you had to pay because I sort of got attached to it don’t get me wrong it’s a really good app but I just don’t like how you have to pay for it because A lot of people put a lot a of their time into this app so they can learn whatever language for example me learning Japanese I don’t like how you sort of ruin peoples commitment I wish that they fix this in the future and that no one else goes through what I went through

Making good progress with this app
I think this app is well worth the money. I particularly like the way the lessons are structured. Lots of repetition.
Japanese pronunciation very wrong with foreign intonations
I was excited to try this app, but I can not recommend this to anybody... I am a native Japanese speaker. Even from the first several words “otoko” for man and “onna” for woman, the intonation is wrong....
Japanese language has intonations up and down and it is VERY important . In writing, two words can look the same but depending on the intonation, the meaning with change. One of the very common examples are “Ame” (‘A’ with higher tone, ‘me’ with lower tone) which means “rain”, and aME (‘a’ with lower tone and ‘ME’ with higher tone) which means candy.
So I hope you get my point and why my review is one star.

Decent learning tool
It’s definitely helping me learn Japanese, though some of the bugs others mentioned remain... I noticed that the longer I am on it, the more likely it will act as if I’m tracing the kanji wrong and reset constantly, even when I’m only on the first stroke. Once in a while it will freeze and bug out entirely, usually ending in a crash of the app itself. A reboot (of the app) fixes it, though, so it’s not a huge problem, just a bit frustrating. I do like the way it provides reviews as you progress, but one thing I thought would be nice would be a review option of the grammar in particular, not just the kanji/words, but also the explanations and uses—the same info it provides when first introduced, just easily accessible.

Amazingly Helpful with persistence
This App has helped me leaps and bounds studying the Japanese language. It’s consistent with reviewing you and the hints for grammar are greatly valuable.
If I could add one suggestion. It would be very helpful if the app developer also added the hints as a separate category, so that they can be referenced whenever you like.
ありがとうございます
