Auto crash

Will automatically crash and only stays open for a split second. I tried absolutely everything to fix the problem, nothing works. Do not download this app if you want something you can actually use.

Don’t! There’s better apps

Tried it alongside some over language apps like TEUIDA. This one is horrific. As soon as I tried lesson one it throws sentences at you, not even just one word ones to build up to it. I get the pitch is important but pronunciation of words and saying them correctly has more value. The app could do so much better but I wouldn’t say it’s beginner friendly. Honestly use the many other better apps out there.

AI based Japanese

I’m a native Japanese. I wanted to see if I can recommend it to my students but unfortunately, the voice is produced by AI, and sentences sounded weird. The idea is good but it needs improvement absolutely.

App automatically crashes

I downloaded this app just a moment ago. Then I exited out of the app. Whenever I click on the app again, it just crashes in a split second. I’ve tried redownloading the app, and restarting my phone, nothing works. Please fix this app.

I’m conflicted

On the one hand I really like the idea of this and can see it being really useful. On the other, I wish that there was just a bit more in the free version and I was disappointed that the app is only checking tone, not pronunciation or what you are actually saying at all (I got 99% by just saying “ahhhhhhh” but matching the tone curve.

I think this has a lot of potential, and I hope to be able to update this review in the future with more stars.

Meh

Seems cool but it constantly tells me I have 0% accuracy when pronouncing. Which is a little hard to believe considering I’ve been studying for two years. 大変だ🙄

Just what i have been looking for

英語学習のELSAのように、日本語のELSAバージョンです。最高です。これからの進化を楽しみです。

wonderful learning tool

I’ve been looking to learn pitch accents (so difficult!) and this app is perfect. After listening to a native speaker, recording myself, then comparing the two, I can hear the difference much more clearly. I’m also extremely impressed by the app’s ability to draw the pitch accent when I speak, which is so good for visualizing. This app is helping me to train my ear. I see that a lot of the vocabulary words are “coming soon,” so I’m looking forward to more content being added. Thank you!

Problems

App will not proceed past the first lesson. How can one test how it works without having to pay for a yearly subscription?

Consider to subscribe

It have just done for a half but I see It’s helpful. Please update it

Brilliant designed up however a few core issues

The app is beautifully designed with a very intuitive design. However, there are some issues with the app.

A minor issue appear in the profile portion of the app. Which completely blanked with semi visible UI when scrolling.

A more critical issue is when trying to assess the pitch accent. It doesn’t count for what is said so I can get a high percentage match without saying the word correctly if I use the right tone. Which can give people a false impression.

the app won’t open anymore

A few weeks ago, I tried opening the app again but it just crashes and closes before it even opens properly… Please fix it 😔

Accurate feedback or not ?

Hello and thanks for a great idea for an app. I will definitely be guided by your recordings when I hear them back.
I have one issue that has me confused.
If I record some random noises with crazy pitch up and down, it is easy to get above 80% accuracy. How is this possible?

Nice!

I can tell that this app was created with a lot of thought and care. It’s cute, and I enjoyed watching the pitch accent. I just started with Japanese, so I think the first couple of lessons are a little hard for me. I might return to this app after I am intermediate level.

A Maverick in Japanese Language Study

I shall begin by saying that I have found this to be such an indispensable resource that I have purchased the lifetime subscription, not only to continue having unmitigated access to the app but to support the developers as well. The lessons offered here along with the thorough delineations of the Japanese language and specifically pitch accent are extraordinary.

There is currently no other application available that offers such an exhaustive account of Japanese pitch accent. They have included sections for Japanese Phonetics, Slang, Surnames, Geographic Names, and much more. Their methodology is delineated in detail in a section specifically for it. The spoken audio examples are outstanding and allow you to compare your own timbre to that of a native speaker.

Initially, my options were between this app and Dogen’s pitch accent course. After careful deliberation, I chose Aomi. I can assure anyone who may be in the same position that I made the correct choice. Dogen’s course can, at times, seem interminable rather than meticulous. For the amount of money that you would spend on his course, you would be better off purchasing a lifetime subscription to Aomi. The team at Aomi have managed to create an exciting learning experience whilst maintaining concise and succinct explanations of concepts.

Aomi is the first of its kind, and perhaps the best.

Здравствуйте! Чтобы сделать запись, нужно зажать кнопку микрофона. Пожалуйста, напишите в support@aomijapanese.jp чтобы мы смогли Вам лично помочь.

Не работает

Приложение хорошое, не плохой дизайн и задумка с тренировкой речи, но запускается только один раз сразу после скачивания, стоит закрыть приложение и попытаться зайти заново, то оно просто зависает на заставке 🥲

А так приложение и вправду хорошее, но походу мне не везёт

Response from developer

Спасибо большое за Ваш отзыв и сообщение о проблеме! Мы протестировали запуск, должно все работать. Возможно, были какие-то сбои в App Store или в сети. Попробуйте, пожалуйста, зайти еще раз. Если остались проблемы, то сообщите, пожалуйста, в службу поддержки support@aomijapanese.jp и мы решим их индивидуально.

Good idea but

When there is a long sentence, the text goes onto the next line whilst the pitch spectrometer reading does not. This makes it difficult to tell which parts of the sentence are high/low. It would he great if the spectrometer reading stayed above the relevant part of the sentence at all times.

Can’t record / no microphone access

Looks like a good app but you can’t actually record your voice even if you enable microphone access.

Давно ждала что-то подобное для изучения языка! Если сомневаетесь насчёт платной версии, советую пройти именно бесплатную. Хорошее приложение, очень удобно изучать язык)
