User reviews

Peak Function

This app is incredible. No where else can take a PDF and add Furigana to it, they all want to take pictures but that’s just so dysfunctional. This app has an almost 100% success rate in accurate pronunciation. Names of course are hard, and sometimes kanji has multiple ways to pronounce it based on context. Four stars because the traditional writing format of top to bottom right to left has much more difficulty in adding Furigana.
