## What is Furigana AI?

Perfect for Learning Japanese! Furigana AI Features

## Snap a Photo, Get Furigana
Take a picture of any Japanese text: books, menus, documents, worksheets. AI adds furigana above the kanji, like "調(しら)べます".
Pick a photo from your camera roll or shoot on the spot. Extracted text can be copied to the clipboard with one button.

## Understand It, Not Just Read It
AI explains the text you scanned: the key points, the important words, and a translation in your own language.
Reading is only half of it. Now you also know what the text actually says.

## Bind It Into a Book
Save furigana pages and explanations into your own "book".
Flip through it in PDF like a textbook and come back to it whenever you want. Jump straight to any page from the table of contents, and rename or remove pages as you go.

## Test Yourself With Problem Sets
AI writes open-ended questions from the material you saved.
Answer them, turn the page, and the explanation is waiting for you.

## Read Several Images at Once
Analyze multiple images together. Ideal when you have a lot of text to get through.

## Voice Playback
Learn through sound as well as text. Press play to hear how the Japanese is pronounced.
